How Do I Scale a Form? (Magic xpa 4.x)

Magic xpa provides you three ways of scaling an active form:

  • Using the Allow Scaling property. You can set it to 'True' if you want a form to be scalable during runtime.

  • Using the flag named SpecialFormScalingByDefault. You can set this flag to Y in MAGIC.INI, which sets the value of Allow Scaling property to True by default for all the GUI Display and Rich Client Display (Since version: 4.7) forms in a project.

  • Using the Combo Box on the Status bar. The combo box is enabled or disabled depending upon the value of Allow Scaling property. You can choose to scale a form up to size 110%, 120%, 130%, ..., upto 200% larger.

· Only SDI and MDI child forms are scalable.

· You can scale the forms during runtime.

· RTL=Yes, and Allow Testing=Yes properties are not supported with scaling.

· Placement is only supported for the controls which are child of a Table control when Allow Scaling = True.

· Scaling is supported in Online (Since version: 4.6) and RIA (Since version: 4.7).

· When Scaling is enabled, Subform Autofit property with value 'As Control' will work as value 'None' as Placement is not supported with Scaling.

Since version: 4.6
