Title: DMG EQuilibrium VST window sizing (and sizing of VST plugins in general)
Post by: crenca on July 04, 2016, 05:54:37 pm

After some searching I could not find these issues addressed (hopefully this is not a re-re-question ;) )

I run a monitor with a 3840x2160 resolution, which is large but I don't think uncommon these days.

When I load DMG's EQuilibrium VST (an advanced EQ plugin) into DSP Studio it is simply too small for easy reading and control.  Actually, all plugins behave this way - some of the unusable because of this but at least EQuilibrium has a built in resizing function (setting it to "Huge" allows me to at least use it, barely).  Am I simply missing a setting in JRiver that allows me to size (and otherwise control) the windowing behavior of VST plugins?

Thanks in advance!

edit:  I should note I am running the latest stable v21.0.83

I suspect that the answer to my query is "JRiver VST plugin behavior is what it is - there is no control of windowing behavior, etc." but I just want to make sure.  Did I post in the correct forum?

That is probably the way it is, but did you try adjusting Windows settings?

If by "(Microsoft) Windows settings" you mean my display resolution, no but then I already know that is a "fix" of sorts.  Yes, it would enlarge the plugin (and everything else) but then it would disturb my work-space which is organized around a large display resolution and monitor...so it is not really a "fix" for me.

Are you aware of other Windows settings specifically for the windowing behavior of certain apps (such as JRiver) that have sub-windows (in this case the DSP)?  I am not aware of anything in Windows that is that granular...
