I am aware of the changes made to the mixer and I did the test but I experienced some bugs and unpleasant visual changes such as:

1- The name labels do not stretch according to the mixer window. 2- The effects boxes are cut in half except for the master box. 3- The send arrows go out of the channel frame. 4- The LED indicators take up all the horizontal space, which makes all the channels look cut in half.

Expected Behaviour

Personally, it looked better before, more spacious but with the only defect that the name labels did not stretch.

Steps To Reproduce

Open LMMS and do the test.

@sakertooth you might wanna look at this since you started work on mixer.

[Rossmaxx]

I can confirm that this is a recent regression. I experience this too on linux mint.

[Rossmaxx]

I could narrow down the EffectView regression to #7453

@DanielKauss @michaelgregorius

also @zonkmachine , I believe you found something similar post that PR.

[sakertooth]

Yeah @Rossmaxx, was just going to say that. I haven't bisected yet, but I had a hunch that #7453 is the culprit since it made changes to the sizing of the effects in EffectRackView::update.

[Rossmaxx]

Another update: Dragging the effect and dropping it somewhere else seems to fix the layout.

[sakertooth]

3- The send arrows go out of the channel frame. 4- The LED indicators take up all the horizontal space, which makes all the channels look cut in half.

Both these issues should be fixed now.

1- The name labels do not stretch according to the mixer window.

I see you added an enhancement for this in another issue, but yeah this didn't change.

2- The effects boxes are cut in half except for the master box.

I believe #7511 should fix this, but @Rossmaxx still has straighten out a few loose ends I think.

[sakertooth]

Closing, as these issues were fixed recently.
