In Version 15.3.1 CJ introduced DPI awarness for toolbar icons. This looks awful, like in Office 2007. How can I disable this new feature (it was gone in Office 2010).
 
Thanks

Hi,

for gallerys we have added CXTPControlGallery::m_bAutoScaleDpi to enable/disable DPI awareness.

Could you please post a picture for which icons you want to disable DPI awareness?

Hi Andre
 
I opened a ticket with two examples: 28690. I use simple toolbars without galleries etc. Working under VB6 with ActiveX!
 
Thanks

How was this posted back in June and still not resolved!

I agree this is completely horrible.  We upgraded to 15.3.1 to try to solve some other problems and now our VB6 interface looks horrible on machines where the user has the text size set to 125%.  It's basically unusable since it doesn't properly size images even.

I can't tell you how disappointed I am in CodeJock that we have had to waste our time upgrading and now have to downgrade back the 15.1.3.  Paying for maintenance is a complete waste if we can't trust that the new versions work and that if there is a major problem like this that it's resolved in days or weeks, not months and still not resolved. 

Here's a screen capture of how horrible the new version looks.

Is it a user option in 15.3.1, or for the next release? If it is for 15.3.1, what option do I set to turn off icon scaling?

I still haven't seen a reply to this. I have had a support issue (#29789) open on this same problem for several months and still have not gotten a response. Is there an option we can set today in 15.3.1? in 15.4?

When using CJ 17.3 and using gallery items with an icon and text, the icons are scaled to the DPI even the m_bAutoScaleDpi is set to FALSE?

In XTPControlGalleryPaintManager.cpp I find the following line:
CSize szImage(XTP_DPI_X(pImage->GetWidth()), XTP_DPI_Y(pImage->GetHeight()));

This does not look for the m_bAutoScaleDpi flag at all, scaling all icons in a gallery to the DPI, making the gallery items blurred.
