Maybe this isn't a bug, but it sure bothers me. I'm working on creating some standalone programs that I would like to have rather large. (At least 1024x768). To see the entire GUI in SM, I have to zoom out. If I export while zoomed out, the executable (have not tested this with VST) is as large as it is in the zoom state at export, rather than the size it was designed to be. Is this correct?

Yes, this is correct. I think it's a feature rather than a bug. If you go to view - reset (or press the 'Home' key) it will set the graphics to the correct resolution for exporting. If you felt the GUI wasn't big enough you could resize then export again. Of course, it would be best to resize the graphics in their original state (photoshop/blender/whatever) but this is good for a quick fix...

Yeah, I understand all that. Thanks. I guess I just don't see what use it has as a "feature". I just don't like having to pan all the time. I'm used to most any other program that uses zoom as purely for navigation, making it easier to work in a larger space. Not something that can ultimately affect the end product.
Anyway, enough of my complaining. I'm cool with it like this, but if it gets changed, it'll make this program a little bit better in my eyes.

No, i don't want this changed!
It's really a feature in combination with the Zoom/Fullscreen in standalone EXE's...
P.S.: Maybe an Original-Size-switch in the compile-window could be usefull 😉

All fair comments I think. We'll try and improve this in the future so that all parties are catered for.
Thanks for your comments as always!
