WinForms auto scale

[Guest]

I want to add "Scale" menu with items 50%, 100% and 150%. When user selects
one of them, the form should be scaled accordingly.

Like if user selected 50%, the form controls should shrink to 50% of their
original size; in 100% should restore original size and of 150% is selected,
form controls should be expanded by 150%. This applies to all controls
including label.

Kindly let me know or point me to how to achieve this.

For this and your other question you will probably find that a custom layout
engine is useful.
