Pointer misaligned on M4L device

Post by yu82 » Tue Jan 16, 2024 2:27 pm

[Screen Capture][https://youtu.be/UyBAldcKG64]

In the M4L device, the location specified by the mouse cursor and the location where the mouse cursor is actually moved are misaligned in the X direction (horizontal direction). :(
Therefore, the UI in the M4L device cannot be manipulated.
This happens with all M4L devices (effects, instruments), not just certain M4L devices.

I have tried uninstalling Ableton and installing the latest version, but there is no improvement.

I hope there is a solution. :D

- Ableton Live 11.3.20 (also in 11.3.13, same trouble was occured)
- Windows 11

I found a solution right after I made this post

I changed the scaling from 100% to some other value (like 125%) in windows settings when using certain external monitors and it cured it.
Also, several other sub-monitors did not have this trouble.

I don't know the exact cause, but if you can tolerate large text display, there seems to be no problem.

Is it something you can reproduce with native M4L devices?
Are you using Live's builtin Max or an external version?
