Everyone:

We are noticing a problem with the "Today" button of the Datepicker control - when running under Windows 7. This is obviously a problem related to the font size increase automatically applied by Windows 7. Take a look at figure 1 (running under Windows XP) and figure 2 (running under Windows 7).

Any suggestion on how to correctly compensate for the disparity?

Thanks

Could you just increase your dialog height and picker height?

Mark,

Increasing the picker height has the side effect of re-centering the drawing of the calendar - leaving some white space at the top... which is not particularly eye-pleasing when running under Windows XP.  We have solved the issue by removing the "today" button and replacing it with a link just below the date picker -- and the result is actually better looking...

Thanks

Giorgio Vidali

This is not exact that I mean - I think about if - else case depends on OS
