text is reallllllllllly small

Anyone notice that Max is almost unreadable on these higher resolution widescreen monitors that are becoming the norm? I'm at 1920x1200 and it's tiny as can be? Will Max 5 address this or am I stuck using the Windows' magnifier?

thanks for reading, jamez

Yes. It's awful. I hope Max 5 has some dynamic workspace scaling, OpenGL, SOMETHING! Selecting All and changing the font size and expecting the fix width functions to work, for example, is a joke.

yeah, well, anyone from cycling care to comment if we can expect some changes in max 5 with how the UI is handled, in particular if text size will be made dynamic.

I know PD has a crude text resizing function that seems to work very well, but it should spread out the relative distance between each object in a perfect ratio.

Yes, you can expect a couple of UI changes, as discussed previously on
the forums.
