In fact there are not that many controls so I tried to do the following on Windows: procedure TfrmMain.SetFontSize(S: integer); begin // Set font size on load. btnDec60.Font.Size := S; btnDec30.Font.Size := S; btnDec10.Font.Size := S; btnDec1.Font.Size := S; btnInc1.Font.Size := S; btnInc10.Font.Size := S; btnInc30.Font.Size := S; btnInc60.Font.Size := S; btnCutStart.Font.Size := S; btnCutEnd.Font.Size := S; btnAddCut.Font.Size := S; btnJump.Font.Size := S; btnShiftAudio.Font.Size := S; speDelay.Font.Size := S; stxCutStart.Font.Size := S; stxCutEnd.Font.Size := S; stxCutTime.Font.Size := S; stxClipCnt.Font.Size := S; gbxCut.Font.Size := S; ckbLogin.Font.Size := S; end; procedure TfrmMain.FormShow(Sender: TObject); begin SetFontSize(9); end; This works just fine on Windows so I went to my RPi4 and opened the project there and added these two procedures also to that instance of the project, thinking it would at laset fix the font size temporarily. But when I run this I get an exception! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Debugger Exception Notification Project VideoPlayer raised exception class 'EReadError' with message: Invalid value for property At address C4920 [] Ignore this exception type [Break] [Continue] --------------------------------------------------------------------- If I check the Ignore checkbox and contine I get another error: --------------------------------------------------------- Error reading frmMain.OnShow: Invalid value for property Press OK to ignore and risk data corruption Press Abort to kill the program [Abort] [OK] --------------------------------------------------------- Strangely it did not manage to handle the integer value for font size so I redefined the SetFontSize procedure to be declared as follows: procedure TfrmMain.SetFontSize(S: shortint); With this in place the form in Linux became the same as on Windows size-wise regarding texts. Maybe a difference between the operating systems, I think Raspbian is still a 32 bit system whereas Lazarus on Window 7 x64 is a 64 bit program on a 64 bit OS. -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ lazarus mailing list lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
