OK, New (to me) PC at work Pre-existing installs of LabVIEW 2011 and 2012 and I installed LabVIEW 2013 from AUg DVDs for Dev Suite.
Then I ran the update service which brought everything up to date encluding SP1 installs for 2011and 2012 as well as the 2013.0f2 patch.
2011 and 2012 are fine.
2013 has controls that are too tall:smileysurprised: That's right open a blank vi and select Modern or Silver Paths, And they are too tall (System and classic are not affected.)
Rings(Text Menu & Pict), enums are affected too as are:
Color boxes (but no other numerics) and Push Buttons (but no other booleans)
????????????
Please help
