I have new screens on many of my systems that are extremely high resolution (1920x1200) etc.



In order to avoid having microscopic text, the windows display properties dialog offers an advanced setting to change the dpi so that 1 inch on a ruler matches 1 inch on the screen. This is good for word processing and makes the fonts reasonably readable.



Many of the strataframe dialogs (like the custom license dll, and the dialog that displays the first time you open VS after a new install) are severly distorted. Buttons and labels are all over the place and since the dialogs are not sizeable, some important controls are not even visible.



I suspect that this will be an increasingly important issue in the future. I hope there is some way that the framework can accommodate non-standard dpi's or at least that the forms can be designed in such a way that they are not sensitive to this issue.



Thank you,

Daniel,



We're working on changing over our exsting forms to allow for the AutoScaleMode of DPI. Right now, most of them are set to None. However, to get the controls to follow the same layout at the form at it scales, it requires that we re-work all of the extisting forms and place all of the controls within TableLayoutPanels. It will take some time to re-work them.
