    size of form

    Is there a (simple) possibility to adjust a form with all controls if settings like font change? I just changed my settings from 1280x1024 to 1024x768 and my font from small to big and all my forms look horrible. I want them to look just like before. Even the font of a label or something like that should be the same like before.

    Thanks

    Manually set the font properties of the controls to your desired settings. You will have to do this with each one. The reason they changed on you was because the controls by default use the system settings.

    I'm not sure if I really understood what you mean.
    I have already set the font properties of my controls (e.g. Name Arial, Size 10). It's not only the font....
    Maybe in my "normal" setting (1280x1024) a form is half as big as the visible screen. Now I switch to 1024x768 (with large fonts) and I can't see everything of the form.

    The older version of the program I'am developing is written in CoolPlex. There everything looks identical; I can't see a change in that forms even after I changed my settings.

    Set the WindowState property of the form to maximized.
