monkeymanx Posted February 3, 2020 Share Posted February 3, 2020 Anybody have any idea if they have been working on getting support for folks with 4K monitors that need high DPI support? Right no you can enlarge the plug in container but you can not actually enlarge the text and the graphics so it is pretty small looking and you have to put your face on the screen to edit. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeymanx Posted February 19, 2020 Author Share Posted February 19, 2020 I up voted a couple of the ideas on the ideascale but noticed one of the 4K support requests which was for the Helix editor is 3 years old so maybe they believe people are not using higher resolutions than 1080p in 2020.

gstrdms Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 Anyone wanting to run Helix Native on 4K+ resolution with a readable UI on Windows 10 may try the following: 1. Head to your DAW root folder containing the exe file for your DAW 2. Right-click on the DAW exe file then 'Properties' and 'Compatibility' 3. Click 'Change High DPI Settings' 4. Tick both boxes 'Program DPI' and 'High DPI Scaling Override'. 5. Run Helix Native within your DAW and it should scale up enough to be readable on a native 4k resolution (and possibly higher).

line-6-user Posted June 28, 2021 Share Posted June 28, 2021 That did not work for my laptop running at 2560 x 1600. Native needs the same scaling button as found on other plugins manufactures, like Waves and Plugin Alliance. PLEASE, Line 6!!!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urimish Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Same here. Makes Helix Native almost unusable on my laptop (Dell XPS 13). Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leoet1975 Posted February 8, 2022 Share Posted February 8, 2022 I am using Studio One as my DAW. Helix Native is absolutely tiny and unreadable. How in the world am I going to use this? Line6, help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlaroe Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Love my HX Stomp, thought hey this would be great on my desk top! In Ableton Live the UI is an Inch x Inch in size! I can't use this! Gonna have to ask for money back or charge back this is ludicrous. Tried the above suggestion but it did not make any change to how it appears.

kasakka Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Old thread, but how the hell is Helix Native 3.5.1 still not HiDPI capable? On my 4K screen it's either tiny or I override scaling and it's blurry instead. Come on Line6! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, Not sure why, but this must be a Windows thing, as Helix Native displays fine on my iMac Retina 5k 27” screen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenderchris2 Posted December 4, 2023 Share Posted December 4, 2023 If "Select High DPI Scaling Override'' is selected in the DAW's properties (suggest elsewhere in this thread) it will affect all plugins from all providers so none of them will display in HiDPI mode. That is not a realistic option unless you don't have any other plugins that can run in HiDPI mode. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yaronv Posted December 30, 2023 Share Posted December 30, 2023 Not being able to stretch the plugin to fullscreen stings a bit harder because HX edit does it no problem :( Line-6, 2024 is right around the corner! please! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M4R71N88 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Line 6 please add 4k support, its 2024, most people use 4k monitors and in 4k the interface is too small! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, There are no Line 6 staff here and only very occasionally do they visit these forums - (See the “sticky comment” in the black banner stripe at the top of this page entitled “Welcome to the Line 6 forums”). This link is where you need to go to have any hope of your suggestion been seen by anyone from Line 6: https://line6.ideascale.com/a/index Before posting any new ideas, please do a search to see if it's already been listed. Multiple requests for the same thing will thin out the votes. Also, post your ideas one at a time. Many users don’t vote for combined suggestions. Hope this helps/makes sense.

yocky Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) The above fix does work for me. I was having the issue with both Helix Native and Softube Amp Room so this is a big win. Previously I was lowering my screen resolution to one that was visible in Reaper. Just ticking the 'High DPI Scaling Override' doesn't work I had to change the dropdown to System from Application. I'm not running any HiDPI compatible plugins though so it's obviously not a perfect fix for everyone. Edit: And in fact it looks like the setting can be chosen on a per plugin basis by hitting the plus button on a floating FX window and choosing the relevant compatibility option there.

sineline6 Posted August 13 Share Posted August 13 I wasn't having an issue with Helix Native, until I was. I thought it might be a Bitwig update that broke things, but I remembered that when I was troubleshooting something else, I changed the plugin hosting from "Individually" to "With Bitwig," while I was trouble shooting another issue. Changing it back to "Individually" fixed my scaling issues. Hope this helps someone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
