Large Font Issue in asp.net application

I've created an asp.net app and it appears fine when I view it with normal
font sizes but when some laptop users view it (They use large fonts setting)
all labels appear gigantic on the aspx page, they do not fit on the page
properly, and are partically covered by other controls, etc.

Has anyone run into this before?

Please help.

Thanks in advance,

Jay

I guess that you are using relative font size setting. You might try to use absolute font size, like 8pt
You can better achieve this using stylesheet

I saw a few posts on this newsgroup about it but nothing to help me resolve this problem: We designed a window in .NET on a platform using small fonts (120 ppp). But this window will run on servers configured with large fonts. For a reason I cant explain, not only the font changes when settings the window on large font but all the widgets seem to be resized. This is kind of problematic because I have to redraw (resize) all the widgets...

Hi all, Hope someone is able to help. I notice when I design a basic HTML page, it is affected if a WinXP user has Large Fonts set in their Control Panel. However some pages, e.g. www.bbc.co.uk/news are unaffected by this I think. They are definitely not affected by changing the font size within the browser. Because I want to add tables, which will word-wrap incorrectly if the font size is changed, how can I disable allowing the...

I am building an application using VB.NET 1.1 and I have an issue with Font properties in my Radio Button Lists and Check Box Lists. My issue is that the Font Names and Font Size for these controls have become "Read Only" and I have no idea how they became read only. I didn't set anything to read only and was able to change these fonts just last week - so I must have messed something up. Below is a snippet of my HTML code I used...

I've been looking at two approaches for the maintenance of Session state for a Web Service application. One approach uses the old familiar Session object which I've used in the past for Web applications. As far as I can see, the Session approach is non-standard since Web Services are supposed to be agnostic with respect to their clients. It seems that cookies are outside the Web Service standard; therefore, such a Web Service application...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
