Hi community,
I have an issue on Microsoft project 2016 365.
When I modify the bar height in layout the height of the bar does not change.
I tried already the following solutions without any success:

Wait. When I change the main monitor to 100%, it corrects the issue. Then it seems like it still works even if I change the main display back to 250%.

Hi,
thanks everyone for the answers, but I finally discover the issue.
I am connected with my laptop to a 4K monitor.
If I am using Project only on my laptop screen, the issue is solved. But if I use project on my monitor the issue persists.
I think Microsoft should solve this issue that is not related to hardware or software, it is only a matter of resolution compatibility.

Daniel.Brb,
Just for reference, I have Project Pro 2019 desktop version and Format > Format group > Layout > Bar height has no effect for me either (i.e. it doesn't work).

hi,
sure, here below you can see.
I have an enterprise version and no one managed to help me.
All my colleagues that have the same version do not have this issue.
Thanks.
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for using Microsoft products and posting in the community, I’m glad to offer help.
According to your description, I tested on my side, changing the bar height will take effect immediately after clicking OK.
In your case, considering that you’ve tried reinstalling Project, could you please provide a screenshot of the Product Information? It would be helpful for us to determine whether it is caused by a specific version, as shown below, pleas note to mask your email address:
Looking forward to your feedback.
Best Regards,
Arck
