Text to meet different resolution

[David_Lee]

I make a text indicator to display a specific  infomation. My screen's resolution is 1600*900. But when run the application in a 1440*900 resolution notebook, the text cannot show the whole character, the tail characters allways be cut off. How to amend the problem? P.S, The properties "Maintain proportions of window for different mornitor resolution" and "Scale all objects on front panel  as the window resizes" has checked.

 Hi, the screen shot is as below.

Have you designed a panel which works well in the smaller screen and then looked at how it scales to the larger one?

LV's panel scaling has always been somewhat problematic, due in part to OS considerations over which NI has no control.

Designing for the smallest screen may not produce beautiful results when displayed on larger ones, but everything will be visible and can be made to work.

If it is just for few strings, you could do something like that:

Hi Veteran,

It just be a text string using the "Edit text" tool to create, not a string control. Because if using strin control, once click the control, the background will be highlight. So maybe your way could meet the string control length adjustment.
