Subject: Applications Running in Different Resolutions
Date: Sun, 02 Jul 1995 20:20:11 GMT

I belive I have found the answer to a lot of peoples questions (mine
included) about Applications that run in different resolutions.

The problem is if you develop an Application in one resolution, say
1024x768 using Large fonts, then try and run it at say 800x600 using
Small fonts.  Labels get chopped and components are different sizes
than when designed.  Other weird looking things happen too.

Well, I found that by changing the PITCH property on the FONT to
VARIABLE instead of DEFAULT that it looks the same in every
resolution.

This should be done to every component and to the Form itself.

Does anyone know where "Default" is set?
