| | I was wondering if anyone has had experience designing forms/applications to support both 96DPI and 120 DPI fonts. We have a large number of customers using Laptop computers with widescreen monitors running 120 DPI fonts and a lot of our forms are non-sensical and don't line up properly. If we change to 120 DPI fonts in development, and then go back to 96 DPI fonts, most of the anchoring of controls and containers don't behave properly. Any pointers? Thanks, Robin Giltner |

| | To do this requires a phenominal amount of energy when developing. Bottom line, .NET has the ability to auto size controls based on the settings (as you have learned from the controls moving off of the page). You can either force the size....or, you will have to use a tablelayout control on pretty much every form and container that you design. This will allow the controls to move and flow with the sizing. This is a "Readers Digest" version...but this will require some work. |

TableLayout? Do you mean the FlowLayout control? If you do mean tablelayout, I'm not following the logic here. |
