#269 Scaling issues in the Configuration Editor

[James]

I'm having some weird issues with scaling in the Configuration Editor, likely due to my setup, I have 1 4k monitor, and 2 1080p monitors. When the 4k monitor is active, the 1080p monitors are disabled, and vice versa. As a result, the configuration editor is very hard to navigate, because some elements will either be giant/tall, and others will be super skinny. Some screenshots are attached. At this point, it's gotten to where even I restart my system, and open the Configuration Editor on the 4k monitor to begin with (or one of the 1080p ones) immediately after startup, it still has these weird scaling issues which make it very difficult to use.

I've had this issue for a while, but I'm only mentioning it now because I saw commits recently on the repo, which gives me hope it may get resolved.

Yes, the developer has implemented some improvements recently. And that's just great. So maybe he's aware of the scaling issue.

Found some additional information, the issue is caused by some values in the registry being multiplied, specifically here:
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\EqualizerAPO\Configuration Editor\file-specific\
Then each file specific key group has values such as "rowPrefs" - occasionally when switching to different resolution monitors and opening the program, the value in rowPrefs for row height will end up getting multiplied. Deleting the rowPrefs fields is a temporary solution, but it does work.

I would look into the cause and try to fix this in the code, but sourceforge is annoying difficult to navigate. I kinda wish this was on github (or any other git based site), so I could more easily contribute

Great bug tracking! Perhaps a simple utility to delete rowPrefs would suffice? I say this because it pretty difficult to compile Equalizer APO code into their proper exe's.
