5/21/17 edit to add: I have resolved my issue stated below - it had nothing to do with WavePad - it was an embarrassingly simple fix in the Windows 10 control panel!
I brought this up in a different thread, and another user has reported the same issue.
On my new win10 laptop (Alienware 17 R3) with the current edition v6.33, the bar at the bottom of the screen (which contains the transport features, the timing displays, and zoom) is extremely small and almost impossible to read. I can only work now due to my familiarity with the program and knowing where the button I need is located, but I can't read the times on the 'start, end,selection length, file length'...
I've been thinking that it had something to do with upgrading to windows 10, or something to do with the display of my new computer.
But maybe, or hopefully, it is a WavePad compatability issue that will be addressed. I haven't pursued this any further yet, as I stated I've learned to work with the miniature lower toolbar.
