.NET Forum / .NET Framework / New Users / March 2006large font size causes bottom of forms to be chopped off...
(Framework v2 / VS2005, C#) a user is running an app (which works fine on "normal" PCs) ....he's running it on a laptop with a large font size...what is happening is my forms (most are fixed dialog types) looks like it's being chopped off at the bottom...the top 3/4 looks fine but my "OK", "Cancel" buttons and status bar are chopped off (can partially see the buttons) ...this surprised me as i thought Windows would take care of all scaling ...any ideas so it shows up properly for all font sizes ? ..thanks looks like i have to do something like this?: http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/58/292722.aspx > (Framework v2 / VS2005, C#) > a user is running an app (which works fine on "normal" PCs) [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > > ..thanks ugh...i just realize this is imprper for .Net 2.0 as GetAutoScaleSize is obsolete ...looks like AutoScaleMode should now be used.... any examples to autoscale a form with the new calls ? thanks > looks like i have to do something like this?: > http://www.dotnet247.com/247reference/msgs/58/292722.aspx [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] >> >> ..thanks I have the same problem but I don't think that the AutoScaleMode helps us. >> Windows Forms in .Net 2.0 are designed to automatically scale under one of two events: the Font assigned to the form changes, or the screen resolution changes. There is an AutoScaleMode property on a Form... << For me, it doesn't work when I set AutoScaleMode to "none". The font size is still large when the system font size is large. Does anybody how to ignore the system font size? > ugh...i just realize this is imprper for .Net 2.0 as > GetAutoScaleSize is obsolete ...looks like AutoScaleMode > should now be used.... any examples to autoscale a form > with the new calls ? thanks Free MagazinesGet these publications absolutely FREE for up to 12 months.
