  • 1.  Page, labels, and text boxes enlarge after running the debugger

    Posted Sep 22, 2011 11:25 AM

    I am building a workflow and when I create a form and then run it through the debugger, the form size, labels, and pretty much everything on the page gets wider.  I am using Workflow 7.1.  Never had this issue before.

    Are the Overflow Behaviors (under Appearance) of your control set to Overflow? This causes the controls to expand to the size of the text contained in them (won't show at design time)

    One of my guys had the same problem, and it turns out it is related to the Display Settings under Windows 7. He had his set to Larger - 150%  (Control Panel - Display - Make Text and other item Larger or Smaller).

    Set it back to Smaller - 100% default and it will go away. Drove us crazy for a few weeks trying to figure it out. All his Forms and any items on the forms (Grids,textboxes, etc) got bigger and bigger each time he opened them. At one point, a simple web form was 55000, 43000 !

    I was checking some video setting unrelated to this and noticed it was set to 125%.  Sure enough, since changing it back to 100%, I've had no issues.

    or related to the WF designer? I'll see if I can get someone from DEV to answer that.

    Glad it worked for you!
