Indeed, editing /usr/local/lib/pd/tcl/pd-gui.tcl to yield tk scaling 1 solved the problem for me. Interestingly there is a file /usr/local/bin/pd-gui.tcl present as well, whose changes do not have an effet. This Pd is installed using "make install" from within Miller's git sources. I wonder why pd-gui.tcl is installed twice on my system, the latter one also being in my $PATH. Thank you again for this quick one Jonathan. There is a comment related to tk scaling in this very file just above the scaling option: # we are not using Tk scaling, so fix it to 1 on all platforms. This # guarantees that patches will be pixel-exact on every platform # 2013.07.19 msp - trying without this to see what breaks - it's # having # deleterious effects on dialog window font sizes. Would be interesting to know wonder what the deletrious effects were. But, hey- problem solved for me. thanks cheers P _______________________________________________ Pd-list@iem.at mailing list UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list
