@NeverStopTheCoder @RoboVacDev This actually isn’t an issue with the screen size! This is the default size of a new menu. To change it, use this block: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex020/uploads/makecode/original/3X/0/6/060a8951258e0c03ae0b50719640b1040c0448d4.png) That will make it fit within the screen! You can also then use ‘set position’ to move it more towards the center, as its off to the left right now. ---

I would like it in block form though. There’s no such function? ---

Copy it into java and switch to blocks, make sure to keep the number a 3 2 ratio or it will look weird. ---

why do people always get the ratio wrong its **4:3** not 3:2 if it was 3:2 it would have the height of 106 ---
