I agree completely, but I'd like to see one additional preference for
importing Max 4 files:
As I also agree to Enola, that a 9 pt anything is unreadable for my
eyes, the first action necessary to any imported file is, to select all
and push the font size to 11 minimum.
The import function does listen to my font preference, but not to the
size. Which does have some advantages for certain old patches, but its a
minority in my case...
I want any non specific size (usually 9 pt for Max 4 files) to change to
my preference size. could be a preference "adjust default font size on
import" or something like that...
Or maybe a special tab "import" which would also allow to set the size
of imported standard objects to a specific default. I have to manually
select all square objects and resize them. (all inlets/outlets, toggles,
bangs f.e.) If that could be automated the time till I have the complete
Max 5 compatible St.ools would be much shorter....
When looking at Verdana which is supposed to be made for screens, I
don't understand why the distance between letters isn't an integer pixel
distance. The result is that the same letter looks different, as in the
example of Enola. Though I do not consider 10 pt as usable. But on 12 pt
the blurriness of identical letters is still different.
Enola said, that with qt it would look better. I just wonder how this
looks like, as a font is a system wide entity, and should look the same
in all applications...
