Misc settings font size issue

mark_k · 22 May 2017, 11:23

I noticed a problem with the Miscellaneous settings listview (Untrap = middle button, Show GUI on startup etc.) when you use custom fonts.

If the GUI font is smaller than the list font, WinUAE seems to use the GUI font size to calculate the width of the list items, but since they are rendered using the larger list font, text gets truncated.

Example pics (not attached here since I've reached my quota):

The second pic shows the problem.

Actually every list column width was calculated before font was set but because other lists had multiple columns with large enough defaults, it was not visible..

Fixed.

I'm still seeing list item truncation with 3.5.0b10.

Code:

Both GUI and list fonts are Segoe UI 8, Windows scaling 175%.

Thanks for fixing that in 3.5.0b11.

Another similar problem applies to the Hardware info page listview. The Start, Size and ID column widths are too small and non-adjustable.

It is disabled (unless custom order is ticked) which also disables header fields.

Perhaps list view header sizes should be stored with font info.. Later..
