Factorio Forums

My screen resolution is 1366x768.
The 'Research' button is pushed out of screen. The technology description, too.

Techs with longer text descriptions don't show the "Research" button on screen. I included a couple shots showing one with and one without the control showing.

I was about to report the same bug and found this thread.

For anyone interested in workaround, play in non-maximized window and stretch the game window out horizontally until the button becomes visible.

The Reasearch Screen is not handling the overall width very well. My screen is in a 1080 x 1024 resolution, so that *might* be the issue here
The real problem in there is that... well, I can't press the 'Research' button.



Loving the 0.13 release! Keep up the awesome work!

An alternative workaround thats alot faster. Just double click the top of the screen twice while looking at the item you want to research, this will turn it into a small window and then maximize it again, resulting in the text being properly setup.



Before double click


After double click

If the description of a research (e.g. Circuit Network) is too long the "Research" button is offscreen and it's not possible to start the research. I'm on a macbook with a 13 inch screen.

If the research description is too long, the "research" button is basically absent.

How to replicate: I was using RU localisation. Everything seemed fine, untill I tried to research productivity module.
Problem: Desc is long, and button seems offscreen. I've switched to EN, and it was fine there.

Kind of a minor bug, compared to other ones, but w/e.

Thanks for the report, fixed for 0.13.1

It still appears in 0.13.1 (Steam Version)

1920x1080 resolution (there are two monitors, the other has a resolution of 1280x1024, but isn't used for Factorio)
german localisation

Neither switching into windowed mode and resizing the window, nor changing the language setting to english solves the problem.

Please file a new bug report.

This bug is still present even in 0.13.8! Please fix!

I'm trying to research "Efficiency module 3 (Available)", but the button is no-where to be found..
I have tried all suggested solutions and the issue still persist!

Edit: Sorry to re-awake an old post but this was all I could find.. I might make a new bug report of it later.. Not now!

This alone is not sufficient, you need to post your UI settings, screen resolution and some screenshots to show what is causing it, this is best done by making a new report as the issue here is fixed.

Stupid stupid me.. I had the research selected already.. Facepalm! The research was under progress.. I'm playing multiplayer so I didn't know it was already selected! lol
