Hi all,

How can I make my application adapt to different screen resolutions e.g.

1366 X 768

1600 X 900

1280 X 720

ETC.

Thanks.

Joe

Hi Joe,

Include
RESIZE RESIZEDEFAULT DCGUI_RESIZE_AUTORESIZE_SCALEFONT
as one of your clauses in your DCGETOPTIONS statements and you'll be able to scale to different resolutions using your mouse to resize your windows.

There is also a RESTOREDEFAULTSBUTTON clause to reset your dialogs to original settings

Good luck

Bobby

Hi Bobby,

I was wondering why I didn't use your suggestion. Now I remember what the problem was I had with this standard getoptions behaviour.
RESIZE RESIZEDEFAULT DCGUI_RESIZE_AUTORESIZE_SCALEFONT

When I add this to my code, and I move a dialog which contains a browse, to my second monitor with another resolution then an error appears. This error appears each time.

This error appears each time.

What is the error?

Can you give me a sample program so I can fix it?

Hi Chris,

I have never seen this error nor was I aware of it.
I'm sure Roger will have a fix.

There is a sample which shows the problem.

I must have missed that thread. Sorry.
I will look at your sample today.

Hi Roger,

NO, you didn't missed that thread. You even had a solution for it.

I'm confused. If I had a solution then why do you still have errors?
