Display Dialog

[Steve Wagner]

Good morning XPE communnity,

We have an image of XPE running well accept for one thing left to resolve.
Our application uses an ELO touch screen with a resolution of 1024x768, so
we wrote the application dialog to fit that size. The Display Properties
(Settings) allows you to set the screen area from 640x480 all the way up to
1600x1200. This in itself is no problem; you simply pick the resolution you
want. But when we launch the application, the dialog stretches beyond the
1024x768 we wrote it for; it appears to stretch all the way to 1600x1200! If
we set the screen resolution to 1600x1200, the display driver allows you to
pan the display. When the pointing device hits an edge, that edge is panned,
and so forth. When in full res, you can pan our application dialog from edge
to edge and see all the buttons and so forth. So why is it doing this? !!

Thanks for any enlightment,

Steve Wagner

Hi Steve

I have seen a post some otherplace almost regarding the same problem.

The solution was a missing font. Hope that helps..

You might want to take a look at the "Lots of fonts" component developed by
teh XPe team. http://blogs.msdn.com/embedded/default.aspx - it is listed on
the side bar.

I tried it for a problem I had, but I wound up creating a custom font macro
component.
