HISE User Interface Unusable

[Ajak]

@d-healey How can that be confirmed? I just started the bootcamp tutorial & haven't built anything yet.

@Ajak What it looks like to me is that you started a new project but never saved by hitting Ctrl+Shift+S (windows anyway). So there's no interface xml file yet.

@Ajak Can you make a little video showing you opening HISE?

[Ajak]

I saved it in a folder called LAB most of the sub folders are empty, I'll try to make a video, have a screen recorder somewhere.

@Ajak When you first open HISE, before loading your project, the interface script is there.

Once you load your project it's gone. That means you must have deleted it before you saved your project. Start over with a fresh project.

@d-healey Created new project, tweaked Mac display settings, tools & grid now visible on both projects:

Opened HISE on Laptop, pressed left trackpad button to drag app for scaling & it just popped into place. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Whew, glad you got this sorted out!
That's an awesome update—it's super useful to know that tweaking the Mac display settings made the tools/grid visible. And thanks for confirming that the interface script issue d.healey mentioned was also part of the initial problem.
Definitely helpful for anyone else who hits a weird UI scaling bug!

I think we keep this guy just for the positivity
