ran into yet another issue with the GUI scaling for 4K monitors on #Ubuntu #Linux. the Surge XT plugin is huge in #Ardour and covers the entire screen and can't be resized.
my system GUI scaling is set to 200% because my monitor's pixels are twice as small as on a regular HD monitor.
some apps seem to interpret this setting as "make everything appear twice as big as normal" while others just interpret it as "use twice as many pixels".
what i want is twice as many pixels, not twice as big as normal. most apps seem to understand this and behave as you expect, but certain apps seem confused about it. no developere appear to have tested these apps on a 4K monitor.
