We convert our systems from progress v9 to progress v10, but the main problem we have is that the sizes of buttons, windows, picture etc...that had been used in the system are seemed to be resized.

Is there a way to retain these sizes?

Any replies are so much appreciated.
 
You need to check the ini file you use. I don't exactly remember as it is 10+ years ago as I did this, but maybe, if you use the default progress.ini the font types and sizes have been changed.

  • Check the -ini parameter you use to start the client session
  • If you don't use the -ini paramter ( IMHO, you should always use your ini file ) you might use the settings from the registry ( which is IMHO a bad choice ). The path is HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PSC\PROGRESS\your-version. Unless you've changed these the should be equal to the contents of the progress.ini file you find in the installation directory as this gets written to the registry during installation.
  • Unless you use the -baseky INI parameter the client session will always look into the registry first ...

As RHD points out, the font settings in the ini file will affect sizes. The standard settings are normally:

DefaultFont=MS Sans Serif, size=8
DefaultFixedFont=Courier New, size=8
