Topic: Pianoteq Stage / Linux MultiMonitor-HiDPI UI issues (and a crash)

New Linux Pianoteq Stage customer here. If you guys fix the following bugs I will upgrade all the way..

The sound is wonderful!

However, a few UX issues:
1. If I move the Pianoteq UI to the rightmost monitor and pop open the sound list combobox,
    the combobox menu opens on the leftmost monitor.
2. The Options window will only open on the leftmost monitor (and resists being dragged to other monitors)
3. setting Interface magnification causes a crash every time...
4. The main window opens up too small (not all content shown) and with no resize handles.
    Luckily it seems KWin allows you to force resizable on.
5. support selecting presets from Bitwig preset browser.

It looks like some JUCE apps tend to exhibit some of the same behaviors.

Look at the uhe plugins for an excellent Linux UX experience (for reference).

I also think it would make sense to release a 64bit version.
