Does anybody how to ignore the system font size?

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. Is there a possibility to
force the font size of a tree view to be in 10 point?

I found this, but it doesn't help me:

>> 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... <<

I have the same problem but I don't think that the AutoScaleMode helps us.

THANKS a lot, Jan

If the user has set the font to be large because he can't read 10 point
font, why are you trying to override him?

Good question...

of course this is possible - but it would be a little bit complicated to
customize the application now for each font size and the question if it's
worth.
