[PD] [tof/pmenu] is the any way for setting the font size?

Forgot to illustrate my problem.
Here's an example of two dropdown menus at 1280x720 and 1920x1080:

 



 

At a resolution of 1280x720 the menus are still readable on a 10" touch
screen and you can hit the numbers with your fingers.

At a resolution of 1920x1080 this becomes impossible.

Hi Fred!

I'm not sure what you mean by "zoom with the rest of the patch".

 

I have dozens of menus within a single editor patch.

Each of them has a different size / number of entries.

If the menu would "zoom with the rest of the patch" wouldn't they be
different?

 

Or did I miss a new zoom feature of Pd?

I'm still using Pd 0.49 for compatibility reasons with older hardware units
that have to run my software.

 

I had used xrandr for actually zooming certain patches but there is a
compatibility problem between Intel / AMD processors.

So I would like to enlarge smaller patches by making them bigger to fit Full
HD instead of zooming.

This makes the menus smaller in relation to the entire patch since I cannot
enlarge them as well by the same factor.

 

Thanks!

Ingo

No there is currently no such option. Would it be helpful if the menu would
zoom with the rest of the patch?
