[amo] Browser GUI Glitch when Zoomed in

Post by prebentious » Mon Feb 16, 2009 12:08 am

On my 15.4" macbook pro

If I set the zoom to 200%
choose Live devices in the Browser
Open Audio effects
use the scroll wheel on my mouse to scroll down
I can't get past Resonator (can't select Spectrum, Reverb Etc)

This happens in all Browser windows, as far as I can tell.

Hi,

Do you have the Detail view, or the info view opened, while going to 200% zoom?

It's possible to reach some "invalid" state, while zooming. If you had the detail view opened, then zoom to 200%, then close the detail view, you won't be able to re-open it, as it can't fit on the screen.

We may be able t improve the experience, but I can't promise anything at this stage.

This happens with the detail/info view open or closed. Also, I can open and close the info view no problem at 200%

Hi,

Can you send a screenshot of Live when such a thing happens?

Hi,

I see. Thanks for the screenshot, I understand what happens now. The thing is, 200% is not fitting your screen: you can see that the Browser is half hidden by the detail view, by looking at the side of the Browser, where the "accelerator" is. The bottom arrow doesn't show. It means you can't get to see the bottom of the Browser, because it just doesn't fit.

If you close the detail view, you'll see the Browser bottom.

The situation is not ideal, but it is how it goes: certain zoom level don't fit some screen resolutions. There is no bug on our side, only thing left is wishing for some different zooming.

I'll move this thread once you've read it.
