Is there a way to automatically configure a full screen patch to fit whatever computer size it opens on? i just got a new computer (1st time since 2009!) and my patch currently looks like the attached pic on my new machine so i wanted to see if there was a quicker/simpler solution than manually changing all my bpatcher sizes.

Well, I was thinking the same tonight and wanted to start a thread too....

As i was deep diving the forums i did come across the suggestion from Audiomatt to use the message "fullscreen 1 window getsize" into thispatcher. This doesn't solve my issue but perhaps someone would find it helpful.

I would never use patchers with zoom factor, don't trust GUI performance issues.

anyway, to do what you want you need to calculate zoom factor depending on

then you send message zoomfactor $1 to thispatcher.

but that would give you troubles with stuff getting displaced on the screen.

then there was js version from Pedro Santos to zoom the stuff in the patch.

ps.window_zoom.js

ps.window_zoom.maxpat

But maybe I am wrong.

i would just center the main window according to the screen resolution.

there are different aspect ratios anyway.

One Size Fits All, patch screen size?
