I do not think that is possible, ...the smallest size of those inputs is 208 x 156....maybe that could be a request....but you can make the preview and program windows smaller, but I still do not think you will be able to see 30 inputs all at the same time.

@ cyoo

Joeboe is correct, the most Inputs you are likely to see at once is 24 with the smallest Input size currently available and the Program and Preview screens reduced to the upper third of the screen.

Input Size is chosen in "Settings -> Display"
Preview and Program are reduced by finding the divider on the main UI, click and slide up.

I believe it has been previously requested for smaller Input sizes, so if it is something you really need, I would suggest you add your support for such a feature there and maybe describe your need or reasoning as it may assist in garnering support.
Here is a link to the Feature Request:

Hope that helps some.

Would be nice to be able to un-dock inputs like the Audio is capable.
Even perhaps 1 un-dock window for every input Category.

What would be good also is to combine Video with Audio.. with option to turn on/off
viewing audio next to input.

eg. Show video box with Audio next to it.

@ desmar

Those are really interesting suggestions.
I would recommend placing your post in the "Feature Request" thread where it will potentially get more exposure and support than in the "General Discussion" section.
Just my thoughts.

Why not simply connect a 4K monitor? That gives you vastly more real estate for UI items.

I tried connecting my desktop to a 50" 4K monitor for the first time recently. Windows defaulted to zooming everything to 300%, which was fine for working from a distance.

Zooming down to 200% seemed a nice compromise between a large canvas and legible text.

You can also minimize uneeded inputs.

The input categories (file folder tabs at top of input list - right click) work great for this - I use one for each of 3 PTZoptics cameras with 10 virtual each then Videos, Graphics, Titles etc.
