Hello all,
Hi Fons,
I'm finally experimenting with LV2 GUIs, in
particular X11 ones.

Q1: How do I
make the GUI window fixed size ? Tried adding
'ui:fixedSize' as a required feature, but that doesn't work.
in your case, use XSizeHints and XSetWMNormalHints().
Then again since DPI varies significantly you may want to make the GUI
scalable to cater for users with a HiDPI display.
Sorry to intrude the developer discussions, but...
as a (visually-challenged) user I highly agree and appreciate this.
HiDPI, DPI and scaling is pretty much hell with different gui toolkits,
setttings, and now also now wayland vs X11, etc. etc. (see e.g. all of
the cases and variations reported here [1]) any application / plugin
offering scaling (especially in the audio domain with potentially knobs,
faders, labels), IMHO offers a much better UX :-)
