For improved work flow, I think it would be better if a right-click popped up the module select menu rather than the cable colour option. The cable colour option could be located in the options menu at the top.

If you right click a module. It will pop-up a module specific menu. (not shown here in the video since I though it was obvious)
The cable colour menu option is located on the rack because it can be annoying to return back an forth to the main menu while your editing a large patch with many cables specially when you have many rack rows. It's really better for that menu to be nearby any where you want it in the rack since cabling can happen so frequently.

I guess it's a personal thing then. I don't really bother with the cable colours and just leave it on random. However, adding a number of modules also entails going back and forth between the menu at the top left.S0lo wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 11:58 am If you right click a module.

Hmmmm, your right. I guess I figured people would be changing cabling colors more often than adding modules when I designed it 3 years back. May be I'm wrong.

I also think that the right click contextual menu should be reserved to add/replace moduleskingtubby wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 3:11 pmWell, it may just be the way I do it. Others may feel differently.

yeah me too, never use the cable colours option, but I regularly right click looking for modules and then remember I have to go to the menu and dig them out - probably habit from many years of working with Vaz Modular which brought up modules with the right click.

A note here for people who might be asking, for 14bit MIDI to work, you need a MIDI controller that can send 14bit MIDI. On the other hand SoloRack it self can send 14bit MIDI, but the receiver will also have to support it.

Hi Psy_
Short answer: A resizable GUI is in progress. If all goes well, it should be in the next version or the one after it.
Long answer: It's because we are using raster graphics instead of vector graphics. Vector has the advantage of free resizability but it has its limitations when it comes to how realistic and beautiful the art can be. Raster graphics on the other hand can be very realistic and high quality but can't be easily resized because of technical reasons. Resizing raster graphics is still possible but requires different methods.
