PopUpControl using BackgroundBitmap

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I am using the Popup Control on my program's splash screen.
I am using the option for a BackgroundBitmap, so as to get the image from the ImageManager.
Everything works fine at Windows Font Scaling of 100%, however once you change this to 125% the image is being scaled up and therefore does not fit into the fixed form size anymore.
At 150% everything appears fine.

I know there is an option for the CommandBars for SetDPIScallingOptions which will stop the icons from being scaled if the Windows font scaling occurs, but is there something similar for the Popup or ImageManager control, to stop my problem?
Or does anyone else have any other solutions?

Also I am using the BackgroundBitmap method as I am also overlaying changing text onto the image, as a notifier for the User.
