Fixed Bug 3.0 Beta 7 fish selection table

STEVEPOON · 12-18-2008, 08:21 AM

I found it out for 3 testing version continuously

I'm confused...

Somehow his system is overriding the font size that I have hard-coded into the settings boxes. The fish chart is stretching properly horizontally, but not vertically. This will be a tough one to figure out without being able to duplicate it.

Guess I don't understand how the dialog box is being built. If the text is too big, I figured it would be cropped, rather than pushing things out of the way.

No, it's a Windows thing. MFC boxes will resize themselves with different sized fonts. What I don't get is how his settings are able to override my hard-coded font size. None of my machines behave that way.

My pc is Japanese Window XP. Does it has any special font size affect the outlook and let the white selection box out of the fish.

Yes, it makes a huge difference.

But I didn't find this problem in the first 4 version.

The last couple of versions have had code that is meant to FIX this problem, but on your machine, it seems to have caused it. Without a Japanese machine, I have almost no chance of diagnosing it.
