Hi,

I made an application under WinXP. When I run this under Win7, a number of texts (labels, text in a statusbar, etc) are longer then when run under WinXP. So a number of texts overlap each other.

Any tips how to avoid this ?

TIA,

Regards,

Koenraad Lelong.

Delphi suffers from this also sometimes. The solution there is to always first put panels on everything (frames,forms,tabsheets)

Make sure to set a font. XP and Win7 may use different default fonts.

Sorry, you are right. My remark was more for when labels texts suddenly disappear, not resize.
