Vst scaling

Post by Littlewoodg »

Hi again Mr Bremmers, (this time from the Windows side)
I've got the Pro version now on a Surface Pro 3, so cool to have the full roster of features on a touch device!
My question has to do with scaling of the synths I'm using inside MTS: I know about the "ugly" gui setting that accommodates bigger scaling for vsti's, but the MTS gui gets very tiny...hoping there's a way in future updates that MTS can stay pretty and finger accessible, and at the same time I can use vst without recourse to stylus.
MTS on 3 devices and counting!

Microsoft introduced DPI scaling in Windows 95. VST plugin developers are a tad behind ;-)

If you use the ugly mode MTS follows the Windows DPI setting. So if you change that to 200 or 240% both MTS and the VST plugins are scaled nicely. The Windows desktop, among other things, admittedly looks rather 'Fisher Price' when it's that large. So people use something like 150% instead. That's actually really small for touch, but at least it looks like Windows.

I'll have another look at this!

Thanks Mr. Bremmers, I'll try the combination you suggested
MTS is really cool on Surface Pro, silky smooth...
Keep up the good work!
