Display Tab

This tab allows you to change many aspects of the user interface that apply across the whole application. These options provide information and usability functions but can be deactivated to streamline the interface.

Miscellaneous Options

Show Application in High DPI (Windows only): If this option is activated and your display supports high resolution, WaveLab Elements is displayed in high resolution. If your display does not support high resolution, this option will be ignored.

Note
Plug-in windows are not displayed in high-resolution. If plug-in windows appear too small, deactivate Show Application in High DPI.
