Can't read the tooltips that pop up when hovering over object names

in SQL Prompt
Visual Studio 2022
When I hover over an object name, there is a little tooltip that pops up. For example if I hover over a table name called "Patient" it shows a tooltip that says dbo.Patient (Table) and if I click that it will script it to a pop-up window. In SSMS this works fine, but in VS 2022 the tooltip is "zoomed" incorrectly(?). I cannot even read it. The other thing it will do sometimes is start to shrink before my eyes.
This is VS 2022
After some time, perhaps as the mouse moves a few pixels, it has progressively gotten smaller
This is expected behavior from SSMS

Hi @Bostaevski
Thanks for reaching out on the Redgate forums regarding your SQL Prompt & VS2022 tooltip concern.
Can I check if you are using a multi-monitor setup and/or are you using Windows scaling other than 100%?
I can replicate similar behaviour by setting my monitor scaling to 175% running at 1920x1080 resolution
So I can escalate this to our developers, I would be interested to learn your scaling & resolution settings and if you are using multiple monitors.
To check if the scaling is what is affecting your application; can close out Visual Studio, set scaling to 100% and re-load your project to see if the tooltips appear as expected
