    Cool How do i make my windows form to fit with any screen resolutions?

    I am developing windows form application on my laptop which has 1440 by 900 pixels resolutions, and my desktop computer has 800 by 600 resolutions.

    i understand that running my project on both of these computers becomes different looks.

    how do i make it to be the same no matter the screen resolutions?

    i just need my project look same in all small or big screen resolutions.

    any help out there? hurry up please

    To really look the same will be a lot of work, and it wouldn't be quite the same. The larger screen is 50% higher than the smaller one. The smaller one is 66% of the larger one. To increase the height you would have to increase everything by 50% (font size, control height ect.) To decrease, decrease to 66%. But your proportions will be off, since you have an aspect ratio of 8:5 compared to 4:3. Because of this you will have to settle for approximate.
