Form Units
|
The size and position of controls on a form are defined in terms of form units (units of measurement). Form units also determine the resolution of the form.
You can define a form in dialog units (characters), centimeters, inches, or pixels (Since version: 3.2). A dialog unit is the size of the form’s current font. Use dialog units to maintain the same proportions in a form when using different screen resolutions.
Use the Vertical factor and Horizontal factor properties to determine fractions of dialog units for finer resolution.
Platform specific:
-
On mobile devices, when using the Dialog Units option, the location and size calculation will be based on the default font metrics (5,13).
-
Make sure that your form's font is defined as Microsoft Sans Serif size 8.
-
Since there is an only option of Pixels Form Units in Web Client tasks, it is disabled.
