PROBLEM
In the node editor, sometimes I like to zoom in to nail one node’s settings, sometimes I zoom way out to view the node network as a whole.
The difficulty is, pop-up settings (color picker, dropdowns, etc.) scale themselves based on the zoom level:
- When zoomed in close, long drop-downs (like in the MixRGB node) are scaled too big. Usually they’re cut-off at the bottom, so scrolling is required
- When zoomed far out, dropdowns can be too small to read.
SOLUTION
Don’t let pop-up settings scale with the zoom level. This increases usability.
