Smart Link log on screen postage stamp size

Steve Blankinship AG4SO

The Smart Link log in window on my Maestro is the size of a large postage stamp and can not read much less type in it, the rest of the windows are normal. Using Smart SDR 2.2.8 any suggestion on how to enlarge it?

I haven't gone down to the shack to double check, but I think what I have done when that happens is just use my fingers on the touch screen to expand it. The screen response doing that is a bit unpredictable, but I have always been able to get it big enough to see. Put your thumb and index finger together, press in the middle of the postage stamp, then expand the space between  your thumb and finger. I usually have had to mess with it a bit to get it big enough.

Getting there that enlarges the log in GUI however the pop up window it is in does not enlarge. I can move it around by holding the upper right edge a few seconds them moving with finger but not enlarge. I tried the 2 finger trick and holding the individual corners no joy.

Nope the double tap then trying to expand did not work either . It sure is a picky touch screen

Yeah this is a nuisance and you would think this is a pretty easy fix.

I started a new message noting this as a problem. Maybe we can get some attention and get this annoying problem fixed.

Please post your comments to the new topic.

Thanks Steve.. It is problem enough with good vision but for old eyes it's next to impossible to log in. I was showing my son how remote operation worked. With out his much younger eyes I wouldn't have known what was happening! It can't be that difficult to fix, maybe some reminders will help move it up the list. 73.. Ken - VE5KC
