From the SDK: AutoScaleMode Enumeration public enum AutoScaleMode None Automatic scaling is disabled. Font Controls scale relative to the ...
i've been trying to find a method in C# to measure the size of a string. The standard method to measure a string in Win32 is to use GetTextExtent. The real goal is to find the average width and height of a font character. The standard method to find the average width of a character starts from getting the width of all alphabetic characte...
I currently use a VMware virtual machine (Windows XP) to debug my .NET WinForms applications under 120dpi. Very annoying. Does anybody know a way that gives me similar results under my 96dpi working environment? That is, can 120dpi mode be activated for a single process, or is there a switch in Windows Forms? ...
i want to test how my application reacts to high-dpi settings. i don't just mean 120dpi. i want to test higher dpi settings, such as: 150dpi 300dpi 600dpi 1000dpi 1200dpi My development machine's video card cannot do the resolutions required to have 300dpi, (or even 150dpi for that matter).

Hello, we've got a problem with one of our non dpi aware MFC applications. If you change the system setting to high dpi (e.g. 120 or 144 dpi), the application icon on the taskbar looks screwed up. Unfortunately, we have to register our own WNDCLASS for the mainframe, and in the WNDCLASS.hIcon member you have to set an icon. This icon is...
