UI in Subsonic 6 not scaling properly

Postby nnbrew » Sun May 01, 2016 8:14 am

Thank you for version 6.0, I just updated. Unfortunately, the UI does not work with lots of subfolders in Index-View and with lots of tags (lower part of screenshot). I'm using firefox on windows 10 with a somewhat high-dpi display (1920x1080@13'').

Would be nice if this could be fixed. Image

Contact me if you need further information, Regards

That change from drop-down/select to "tabs" came in 6.0b2, and yeah, for my large collection (20 folders), it doesn't work very well for me, either.

You can work around it by turning on the indexes in the left tab (it will put a select box there), or setting the default folder in the Home/Albums page then going to the Index page.

Thank you for pointing to the beta, I try to avoid unstable versions. With the index in the left panel it works well, as it did before. So I ignore "Index" and have just one scaling issue left.

I would like to see the left and right Frames hidden entirely, I dont use them, and they take up around a quarter of the screen each.
Perhaps there is a way to do this?

If I select (Show only this Frame) on the middle frame, it looks quite good, and I can read the artist and song names again.
If only I could use it this way.

This is Subsonic 6 with 3 frames.

..and this is just the middle frame.

Go to settings, personal and uncheck options to "show what others are playing" and maybe also "let others see what i am playing". This hides the right panel. Hit "m" to hide the left panel.

It is the setting /Personal/ Show Chat
that hides the right frame.

and pressing M turns off the left frame for a while.

that makes things much more usable.

Thankyou so much, for the good advice.
