Subject: Re: GUI-problems in Windows 7
Date: Tue, 01 Dec 2009 19:21:02 +0100Right now I'm running Win7 in a VirtualBox environment. Unfortunately I have not yet been able to get the graphics drives to work properly, so I'm only running 800x600 in Non-Aero mode. I'm working on getting full graphics support to see if it helps. But the size of the controls have in all other Windows version only depended on the DPI settings, not the resolution. This is what I don't understand yet.
