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
 
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GetAutoScaleSize is obsolete ...looks like AutoScaleMode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
 
I have the same problem but I don't think that the AutoScaleMode helps us.

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?
