Plugins shrink upon contact

Post by ThoseFromHeaven »

Hello Mx Team and community.

I have downloaded the demo version for the new release and when open certain plugins/VST, they don't fit the box or they shrink when i click on them. I'm using a 4k monitor on 100% scaling. increasing the scaling doesn't fix it, though having the ability to change plugin scale individually would help massively as i struggle to read certain things on them.

The Polly_mv shrinks when trying to move buttons around, making it super hard to adjust whatever i am editing.

Imaages:

See how the plugin doesn't fit the window:

See how the VST shrinks when i interact with the second red button:

Hi

Try going to Prefs>Plugins>Plugin Manager. Then locate the troublesome plug, right click and select 'Auto scale to match monitor scale'

Hi,

The next thing to try would be to go into Mixcraft's Display preferences and select the option to disable per-monitor DPI awareness, then click OK and restart Mixcraft.
