Sims in the left hand corner turn small?

[Robin]

In the bottom left corner of my screen, while I'm in live mode, if i have more than four sims in my household then the sims profiles that you click on to switch sims become smaller.

If you haven't yet, try repairing game and deleting the game cache files.

Repair Game:
In Origin > Games Library, right-click on Sims 4 and select Repair. - Do note this repairs the game's install files for the actual game. It does not make any changes to the saved game files. Meaning that your saved games are safe, they won't be deleted. If you'd like you can copy the Sims 4 folder to a USB key.

Even if you don't play with mods or custom content installed, it's a good idea to clear game cache and the localthumbcache.package from the Sims 4 folder to help troubleshoot.

The localthumbcache.package can be found in the main Sims 4 folder
C:\Users\Username\Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4

Welcome to the forum, Robin!

The size of the Sims in the lower left corner depends partly on the size of your household and partly on the size of your screen. As you increase your household, their thumbnails will get smaller, and you may even have them starting a second line along the top. If you can't make your screen larger, they will stay that size.

I cropped my picture so the lower left corner would show up better.

If I am understanding the issue correctly, When you select a Sim, their profile photo doesn't become the larger one in the lower left corner? It ends up staying small?

The active Sim's profile is supposed to become larger when active, regardless if you have 2 to the house max of 8 Sims.

If this is the case, you might try saving them to the library and trying them in a new game, as a test to see if that helps.

Trying the family in a new save will help troubleshoot the issue.
