Are some of you able to use the 600x800 screen resolution with VST that has large window like kontakt ?
In 600x800 I can navigate through the whole Receptor Rack window without problem, but when I open the kontakt window, I can't see the right end part, and then I can't for exemple close an opened library.
I found no way to see this right end part of Kontakt window (same problem with several other vst). Is anyone use the 600x800 screen resolution ?

600x800 is a very small screen resolution which is not recommended for use. I suggest using a higher resolution as 600x800 is a resolution which is extremely outdated and as you'll find isn't high enough of a resolution to fit most plugin GUIs. At the very least I would use something above 1024. I found 1280x960 to be a nice fit for a standard computer monitor.

In general plugins are not built to be resizable. The only solution I can offer you is getting a larger screen that supports higher resolutions.

Unfortunately there is nothing I can do. As you can see from the image below if I set my computer screen to 600x800 Kontakt does not fit. There is no work around, the screen resolution is simply to small to support the full size of Kontakt.

In fact I've just found a workaround for Kontakt : if we click on the Browse icon on top of the screen (the folder next to the Kontakt logo), it close the left part of the window and now it fit in the 600x800 screen resolution. It works also for guitar rig.
But many other plugins don't fit.

I've been using 600x1024 for years and it has worked fine. On Kontakt and other big GUI's I have these bars on bottom and right side that I can drag so I can see the whole GUI, just like in internet browsers. I don't know why you don't have those.
Always look on the bright side of life
