Hi,
Another oddity in the IDE designer.
I have a form which contains some group boxes, radio buttons and a
buttonpanel.
Bordertstyle is bsDialog. No special properties regarding autosize or
whatsoever have been set.
When I switch (using F12) between source and form, it *always*
resizes to
some seemingly standard size and I need to fix the size.
The form just contains the following:
Height = 279
Top = 218
Width = 443
BorderStyle = bsDialog
Caption = 'Resize Selected elements'
ClientHeight = 279
ClientWidth = 443
Position = poOwnerFormCenter
LCLVersion = '1.9.0.0'
I have attached it for reference.
I suspect the scaling and high-dpi is at work here: I have a
dual-monitor system, with xinerama.
To test that hypothesis, I tried to set scaled to false, but it doesn't
help.
Also: When the form designer is active, and I press save, the form is
marked 'dirty'
(i.e. not saved!)
Anything I can do to help to diagnose the issue ?
If you suspect on HiDPI then you should disable scaling at application
level (lazaruside) via Application.Scaled := False (or similar prop
name) . In that case TCustomForm.Scaled should not be taken into
account in any case.
Is there a command-line option for the IDE to disable this ? It seems
silly to me that I would have to modify the IDE sources every time I do
a SVN update?
AFAIK not.
Second thing: I assume that you're using Gtk2 ide. What is
windowmanager ? Does it run compositing ?
I don't know. I use a standard Linux Mint using Cinnamon desktop.
Then compositing is on, and that's probably cause of problems.
