Mid-game my centre screen table area images (hand, cards, bidding box area) all suddenly got very large and cramped, so cards being played appear in odd places and it appears they have been played by West instead of North, for example. I have to watch which player's user name is in yellow to know who is to bid / play. Almost unplayable for me. When I few games being played by others their displays looked normal. I rebooted and it is just the same when I start a game. It's as if I am zooming in on the table. I have tried clicking everywhere and checking my settings but can't see anything to change. I must have done something but have no idea what.

Sounds like you may have typed Control-Plus, which zooms in. Use Control-Minus to undo it.

Control-0 (zero) is also often available as a reset to the default zoom setting.

I don't work for BBO and any advice is based on my BBO experience over the decades

If you are using an Apple magic wireless mouse, check the settings. Disable the two finger zoom setting.

Were you able to figure out what was causing this? My partner is experiencing the same thing.

No. Still have the same problem. Tried Control then +,-,0. None worked

When I do as you suggest, the side windows (message window, chat window) zoom in and out but the visuals in the middle window (the table) have got a lot bigger but the table is the same size so the layout is cramped. the 'bidding box' and the picture cards are twice the size they used to be.
I have tried rebooting but that doesn't work
