How to preserve panel/controls look across smaller-medium-larger display font changes done through a Personalize window of Windows OS?

[2m]

Hello,

My application uses edit, numeric, ring and other controls with control/label strings mostly made of EditDialogMetaFont size=11 (all optimized for smaller font setting in a Personalize window of Win OS). When user changes the font setting to for example medium the font of all labels and controls changes to size=13 and all panel labels are misaligned with some labels even extending panel margins and hence become partially visible. How to cope with this situation please?

Thanks,

Martin M.

The description of metafonts sheds some light onto this issue; basically it says that for a predefined metafont font size is not an absolute value and can change... The way out is using fonts provided by the OS, e.g., Arial.
