Shutter Requires Multiple Open Commands

I've been out of the observatory for several days and when I went in today and tried to open the shutter it would open a few inches and stop. It required 6 open commands in SGP, clicking the open button, to get it to fully open. Anyone having this problem? If so did you figure out what was going on?

Any Windows I have.. it's in a VMWare VM and my mac runs on a 34" screen in 3440 × 1440 :)

On the NUC in the observatory running Linux I have a HDMI dongle that simulate a 4K screen and run in 2560x1440 ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074FT1P8M/ )

On the only Windows box used for testing (USB3 stuff don't work properly in VMWare) I use Microsoft Remote Desktop from the Macs .. and force the resolution to 1920x1080

I'm not touching the font scaling ... this usually end up creating issues.

Replying to

I haven't used VMWare since the late 90's or Mac's Boot Camp since the early 2000's. I have no idea what these are let alone know what they do :HDMI Dummy Plug Display Emulator for Headless PC 4096x2160@60Hz, 3 Pack 4K Virtual Screen

I'm happy I solved the app resolution since I'm using my iMac's 27" 5K display, viewing my 13" windows notebook in the dome. I guess at some time in the distant past, my $499 Acer notebook screen running native 1920x1080 was unreadable, so I increased the app size to be able to read the display. Now working from my office that 13" display is blown up, so I can read at 1920x1080. I'm happy now.
