+---Topic: High DPI screens started by eboite

When using this program with a high DPI screen, the dialog boxes are unreadable because the labels and input boxes overlap or go out of the window boundaries.

If you want to have a look about what I am talking about, righ click on the desktop, properties, parameters, next to the resolution slider there is a button "advanced", then on the "general" tab, you can chose your screen DPI.

Thanks for this great piece of software !

Thanks for the article link. And yes, this is a known problem (search for "large AND fonts" on this board for more info).

The main problem is that Delphi GUIs are not created by code to begin with, so doing it as suggested in the article would be a huge effort. There are some things that can be done though, and I'm planning to do this in a future version.

Thanks ! Good to know you plan to do something about it.

I really can't seem to find other instances of people experiencing this problem on this board.   In some of the modules, e.g. Mass set tags, the execute function hides 2 of the 3 radio buttons, leaving only the prepend button exposed.  If pushed, this button can no longer be unselected, and needless to say, everything is always prepended.  

I just reduced my DPI from 120 to 96 (100%) with no effect.  My monitor is a standard 17" with a standard ATI card.  No one else is experiencing this problem?

OK, after rebooting, a 96 DPI setting remedies this problem.  Sorry...
