Ignore Increacing Font Size Of Windows In Net?
Apr 12, 2011
In Windows it's possible to Increase the size of on-screen fonts. We realized that too late and if a user does this our programm is unusable because he can not see all texts and controls. We're bringing out a release and we do not have the time to fix that.
So: How can I disable or ignore this increasing from windows application-wide? I tried setting autoscale to none but it is not working. Isn't possible to ignore that setting for the whole application? How can I do that?I know that this is a week solution because the user has a reason why he wants to increase the font size. But we can not fix this problem within two weeks but want to provide an application somebody can work.

Whenever a person adjusts how big they want there display, it will distort my application, it will make images overlap and will make text bigger.
Is there some code I can do to tell my program to ignore the size set by the display on windows?

I have inherited from a Windows.Forms.Listbox so I could override the OnPaint and OnDrawItem methods in an effort to highlight specific items and alternate backcolors. I am also skipping some DrawItem events to prevent flickering.Everything is working fine, however when I select items in the listbox, it looks like the font is shrinking or becoming more compressed.Then when I mouse leave, the font goes back to its normal size and appearance but the same items are still selected (which is correct). During debugging the font never changes nor do any of its properties, but it does end up looking different when the item is selected and the mousedown event just happened.

I can't change change the font size or font name or color of the text in the DHTML Editing Control. I have 2 listbox controls FontNameList containing all of the installed fonts on my PC and FontSizeList containing some numbers to be used as fontsize and I use the execommand and build my App but the font did not change instead it grew bigger but when I tryed to change it back it stayed the same. The Code for that was:
Design.ExecCommand(5044, False, Font.Name)

I have a label which appears full screen on a projector (VGA 2). In this label I will be sending strings. Some one liner's, some wrapped paragraphs. Some multi-line with carrage returns. My goal is to have the font dynamically change size to be as large as possible without overflowing the fixed label size.

Whats the font size real meaning? since when i use Arial font size 10 in the report its gonna take different space than the textbox im using (Both using exactly same font type/size/unit) its kinda if i set 10 milimiters to the font size why would the i and M for example have so diferent size.
i wish it was like in the Notepad where all the letters take the same space. what i need its to give a certain texbox(in the report) with auto grow to have always the same lines of height but its not posible to calculate it from vb b4 being inputed to the report.

I'm writing a couple of custom controls in VB.Net 3.5, in VS2008, and would like to resize the font size based on the height of the control, and vice-versa. Is there any way of converting a font of say 38.25pts into a me.height, or the other way round?
I realise the font width will change dependent on the font used (which isn't an issue for my purposes), but as far as I know, the font height is usually consistent Accessibility/Large font settings won't be an issue with this application.

I need to convert between Drawing.Font.Size (float, ?) and WPF FontSize (double, WPF pixels).Finally, I decided to store in the database the fontSize in inch...How can I convert the GDI FontSize to inch and the WPF FontSize to inch?
sizeInInch = wpfFontSize / 96
sizeInInch = gdiFontSize / ?
Can I use something DPI independent? Maybe System.Windows.FontSizeConverter?I need to convert to something, that will allow me to switch multiple time between WPF and GDI without changing the "real value". Each division and following multiplication will accumulate errors...
FontSizeConverter does a ConvertTo, but I don't understand to use it:
myUniversalFontSize = (double)(myFontSizeConverter.ConvertFrom(
gdiFont.SizeInPoints.ToString() + "pt"))
will transform my gdiFont size in ...? WPF Pixels?How now should I convert back that value to GDI?
gdiFont.SizeInPoints = myUniversalFontSize / 96 * 72???
Can I use in the second example the myFontSizeConverter too?

How can I automatically change the font size of the label when the length of text exceeds the maximum width of the label?
Also, how do I set when that should stop? I mean obviously it can't keep getting smaller forever, so what would you advise I do when the text gets to a really small size? Just stop text entry? How?
