Tools and dialogues size

[sn101]

I have been using Paint.net a while, but lately I'm encountering a problem. Whenever I open a new session of Paint.net, a box "Tools" would come up, but in enormous size, covering everything up. Sometimes I can minimize its size back to its normal size by double-clicking the top of the window, but it doesn't always work. Thankfully, I have a dual-screen set up, so I can just about bare the situation by moving the "Tools" box to the second monitor, but this can only be a temporary solution.

Not only the "Tools" box, but just about any dialogue box (Save file, Effect-Distort-Pixelate, File-New etc etc) comes in a large size. Is this a known issue/functionality of Paint.net? I am hoping that there's some solution to this problem.

The following are the things I've tried, but the problem persisted.

1. Show/Hide the "Tools" box by accessing via GUI or pressing F4 button.

2. Reinstall Paint.net.

Additional notes:-

Windows 7 Home 64bit

Paint.net version: 3.5.5

It'd be great if I could use Paint.net as I used to. Thanks in advance.

Thank you for forwarding me to the right post. The problem really seem to arise in combination with ATI Hydravision software. After deleting it, everything seem to be fine, as far as I've tested.

Thanks again.
