Namespace: DevExpress.XtraBars

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraBars.v25.2.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

C#

[XtraSerializableProperty]
public bool ScaleEditors { get; set; }

VB.NET

<XtraSerializableProperty>
Public Property ScaleEditors As Boolean

Property Value

Type	Description
Boolean	true if in-place editors are scaled to match the current DPI settings; otherwise, false

Remarks

Increasing the DPI for your monitor enlarges the size of screen items. Use the ScaleEditors property, to specify whether in-place editors should match the DPI settings of the user’s monitor. If this property is set to true, the in-place editors are scaled up if the DPI is increased, and vice versa. Otherwise, the editors will remain a constant size, regarding pixels.

Important

If you need to handle the Application.ThreadException event, do this before modifying the ScaleEditors property. Otherwise, the event will not occur.
