Graphical issues likely caused by macOS 10.13 High Sierra’s broken OpenGL renderer

Open Micronautics opened this issue 5 months ago • 7 comments

Tested in plugdata legacy v0.9.1 and v0.9.2 Nightly build: 164b1c6d4

Every time a patch is opened, or when switching from Editor to Plugin Mode, the interface displays at 200% and exceeds the window boundaries.

You have to resize the window for the interface to display properly at 100%.

This is likely caused by the OpenGL renderer, which is faulty in macOS High Sierra. For example, UVI's Falcon plugin behaves the same way, except if you uncheck 'Use OpenGL renderer' in Preferences, in which case the interface displays normally when opened.

I therefore suggest adding a similar preference in Plugdata, allowing the option to not use the OpenGL renderer.
