MMX dialog font size

[PeterPanettone 158]

Thank you for MMX Code Explorer! This is such a great addition to Delphi!

Have you compiled the MMX dialog form with the Scaled property set to True?

If yes, maybe this could be the cause for the dialog font size being too large on my big screen? (With the system-font set to 125%):

 

 

What do you think?

Of course I have. After all it should adapt to DPI changes when the dialog is moved to another monitor. 

 

I rather suspect the help buttons rely on a specific font size. Will have a look.

Thanks, Uwe.

However, this is on my primary monitor. Here is another example:

 

 

I am on Windows 7 x64 SP1. I do not have Windows 10 to test it on Windows 10. Does it look better on Windows 10?

I just had a quick look into the sources and it is indeed so that the help icons are located statically and don't move when the control to the left resizes (which they actually should). I have to go through all of these (which are a lot) and check for that link.

Thanks, Uwe.

But wouldn't it be easier to CONSTRAIN the labels and checkbox captions to a specific pixel width?

I was wrong. It is a problem with 10.3 Rio only. The IDE doesn't work well with these settings and MMX seems to be the victim here. Not sure what I can do about that.
