Archlinux, LMMS 1.2.1-3

that '-3' Did you compile source? Does off. AppImage 1.2.1 have the same flawed ui ?

The problem is that FLTK 1.3 doesn't support High-DPI scaling well.

Hey there !

I have the same problem on my laptop, a HP Zbook with HiDPI, unfortunatly making ZynAddSubFX completely unusable.

LMMS itself shows nicely though, using this command : env QT_SCALE_FACTOR=2.5 QT_AUTO_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTOR=0 /home/hakim/Desktop/lmms-1.3.0-alpha.1.102+g89fc6c9-linux-x86_64.AppImage

This happens on both 1.2.2 and 1.3 Alpha, using the AppImages downloaded directly from the official website. I'm on Xubuntu 21.10.

If anyone has a workaround to make ZynAddSubFX show nicely for HiDpi, I'll be grateful :)

Cheers

In essence zynaddsubfx is an embedded VST, integrated ín LMMS. I doubt it will work, but try all 3 different embedding-options in Edit | settings.

It is a longshot.. We know that lmms need UI scaling for more accessibility, but when we can achieve it, is unknown Let us know the outcome :)

Hey, thanks for showing up so quickly :)

The 3 Embedding Options I had are a bit different from yours, since I'm on linux. Sadly none of them worked. The "Embed using Qt API" seemed promising, but nothing changed apparently.

I wanted to learn ZynAddSubFX 10 years ago, and should have started then when screens where a bit more rough :) I'll stick with the Triple Oscillator then.

Cheers mate.
