I have a customer where my application's forms are shown in a different layout than they suppose to be. Please see the attached images.



My customer and I are using Windows Vista 64bits with a screen resolution of 1920x1200.



Is there a form's property or something I have to setup to make sure the form's will display as they should?

BTW, I am not using any autosizing or anchor properties.

Did you try disabling the autoscaling on the client's box for your app? The impression I got from reading WPF stuff was that as long as your app was winforms and used GDI you wouldn't get accurate rendering if let the OS autoscale.



Hi Charles,

Yes I tried disabling the shortcut "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" but that did not have any effect and I mix and match this setting with different setting in the form's AutoScaleMode property. So this could really be a very frustrated task to keep the application in complaint with the OS DPI, based on some articles I found on the google this should be handle automatically by VB.NET, but it is not BigGrin.
