Greetings.. I have been using the ICS package for a few weeks now and
find it very nice to use.
I have an old application that was passed to me to maintain... (aka, you
are the support... we lost the source, good luck)
Well up until recently things went well.. to a point. Now alot of
changes are needed for a new system platform..
problem is, source got lost years ago.. many years ago..
The person who wrote it, no longer with company (many years) and the
source has been long gone.
It was a VT100 terminal client app for an internal service of ours. Plus
it had many other features built into it, not just the terminal.
One thing it had was the terminal could do was scale the fonts/ect when
form resize.. so if made it full screen mode... it would
do whatever and fonts looked nice and took up the whole screen.
With ICS, it looks like this is doable.. CharWidth, LineZoom, CharZoom,
LineHeight, FontSize, ect...
Well I can only make it work if I use the edit options and manually dink
with these until it works.. then if i resize the form, do it all over
again. Change the font size to be smaller or bigger, and tweak each
other property until all is good. For the end user, that wont be acceptable.
Is there any better way to calculate the proper font size to use, and
change all the other properties to make it so when the
end user resizes the form, it will scale right? I've been banging my
head on this for days, and can only get half working and ugly
results.
Thanks!
-Steven
