Form Size?!?! - Ramsey - 10-02-2008

I am trying to make the size of my frmMirage 800x600. But the height is 6240 and width is 7770 and its somehow smaller than 800x600, how do I fix this?

Change the scale height/width?

I tried that before and I tried it again and it does nothing. Am I doing something wrong?

Do what Dave suggested.

Just resize manually and look at scaled while your doing it (:

Screen.TwipsPerPixelX
Screen.TwipsPerPixelY

That's the actual constants Dave.

Is the amount of Twips-per-pixel variable?

I've always used 15 Twips to each pixel and not had a problem.

Ramsey, if you set the ScaleMode for the Form in question to 3-Pixel and then set the width/height to 12,000 and 9,000 respectively that should sort things out. I don't think the form defaults to pixel measurement, however, anything you put on that form will if you change the ScaleMode.

I got it guys, thank you.

Theres 15 twips per pixel.
