    Hello,

    I have some messages with long text in my application. Long text means up to 12 lines text with a length of 100 characters per line.

    Scaling at 100% shows a normal dialog. Scaling to 125% or 150% using sSkinManager1.Options.ScaleMode shows the dialog with text in the whole window and the ok-button is in the middle of the last two text-lines.

    This behaviour can easily be seen in the askin-demo-project if you add a showMessage with such long text to the main menu popup and scale to 150%.

    What can I do to avoid this? Is it neccassary to write an own “showDialog”-form that is able to calculate the the button-position and the size of the window or is there an easier way to avoid the wrong rendering of showMessage?

    Regards,

    Siegbert

    Hello, Siegbert!

    I'm trying to repeat this issue now but can't. Standard “ShowMessage” used?

    Maybe you can show a demo?

    What is version number of your Delphi?

    I can repeat it now, thank you.

    I hope to improve it in the package in the nearest release.
