Need for a scrolling widget inside views windows [mixer,routing]

[flbstudio]

Hi there! First of all thanks for this nice scarlett control interface and also for the alsa kernel drivers patchs! You are awsome! I just compiled and test the alsa-scarlett-gui with a scarlett 18i20 3rd gen. Unfortunately the views are much more larger then my screen view. It is impossible for me to see and manage routing and mixing for half of all available sockets. So a scroll widget inside views windows should make this app usable for the big 18i20. Many thanks for the grate work!

Hi! Thanks for trying this out! What resolution display do you have? Can you send a screenshot showing the issue? I'm not sure if scrollbars just by themselves will make it usable; maybe have to do something else, but let's see what it's looking like for you to start with.

I have tow dsdiplay with the same resolution
~$ xdpyinfo | grep 'dimensions:'
dimensions: 2720x1024 pixels (719x270 millimeters)

I rebuilt the app and now the routing is perfect!

But the Mixer view overlap on my second monitor. It fits verticaly but horisontaly it's a mess.

I take a sanpshot of the screens. But sadly 3 columns are hiden in my monitor. I can move the window left to adjust dial knobs but it's not practical.

Look at the image back groud to see where the interface is hiden.

I hope it help! I will send a phone capture of my screen tomorow. Myphone is dead.

Sorry, that window is super awkward on the 18i20. I have some ideas to fix, but that's going to take some time still.

In the meantime, I've made the window resizeable and scrollable (commit 21cc6d6). It's still awkward, but on smaller screens the controls can at least be reached with the scrollbars.
