Hi

Thank you for dexed! I'm using a 4K pc monitor and dexed is very little in this resolution: tiny buttons and very small text. So it's not comfortable to work with.

Can I request a feature (like most synth VSTs have) to enlarge the user interface to 110%, 120%, ... up to 200%?

Thank you

On a Mac with monitor that has larger then 4K resolution, the dexed window is even more tiny! So this feature is highly needed for high resolution monitors.

I am noted that the last version use upscaling at least on Linux (it looks pretty soapy) but when I press "PARM" button plugin interface forgets about upscaling.

Yes, clear HiDPI scaling on all 3 OSes would be really appreciated! 🙂

Hello! 😀 I am a Linux user that has been wanting to use Dexed for a long time, but the screen is too small for my 4k laptop monitor. My last post was nearly a year ago, because I didn't want to be a bother--since I know you are busy. 😀

The last release, 0.9.6, was in March of 2021. I know that you started working on 0.9.7, but there hasn't been a release for over two years. Would it be possible to do an interim release (maybe something like 0.9.6.5) and release the GUI fixes, and wait on the other things for a 0.9.7 release? I would really love to use this wonderful instrument. Thank you!

Without scaling (100%), when the dexed window appears for the for the first time, it looks like with applied scaling (200%). And after pressing the "PARM" button, scaling became as expected.
