Legend interface visual artifacts

Postby entro » Mon Feb 26, 2018 5:29 pm

This is odd (and totally minor) but when I run The Legend (VST or AU, 64bit, Mac, Ableton) there are these weird pink lines on the text in the preset window (see attached screenshot). Anyone else have this?

It seems the issue is related to the Retina display. The Legend is not yet ready for Retina. We are working on it. :)
Which version of the size is it (Small/Medium/Large or all)?

All sizes of the display have the same artifacts on my machine. Looking forward to a nice, sharp Retina-ready Legend. :) Amazing sound!

I can't see any artifacts at all, even when I throw it up onto my 32" Sony Bravia TV. I even zoomed into the page in my browser and I still can't see anything.

@Bones, it's a problem related to retina screen from Apple

Above the "3 OSC Fatness Bass" text. Might be hard to see on a display with gamma set low, but I think Macs still target a gamma of 2.2 (I haven't checked in a decade though).

I see the pink lines on the screenshot above but not when Legend is in use but I'm still on 1080. It's still a bit early (and expensive) to jump on the 4K Bandwagon yet....

Retina is not just about high-resolution (like PC displays), but requires changes to the software as well. Otherwise the OS will display high-res graphics incorrectly.

So a Retina Monitor isn't just higher resolution like 4K ? Is it higher pixel density or what makes a Retina display special ? Is there a Windows equivalent and if not why not ? It seems to this casual observer that Macs are a pain to support...

Yes. "Retina Display" is just Apple's marketing term for a high pixel density display like a 4k laptop screen, which you could never use with 100% scaling. It's basically a con job because before "Retina" displays I never heard anyone complaining that they could see the pixels in their screen. Nobody. Ever. It doesn't make anything look better, it just sucks up twice as much power. At work some of our MacPros have 4k screens and they don't look any better than the older Apple Cinema displays, especially if you run them at the same resolution. TO be fair, most of that is down to the older displays have glossy screens, which make blacks look a lot darker, but they still look better.

My point is that it doesn't show up in a screen shot so it's very specifically a display issue, not an issue with Legend. i.e. The computer is sending the correct image to the display but the display is showing it incorrectly. Playing with the display settings might, therefore, solve the problem.
