Am I the only one to see this problem (I posted a couple of days ago and got nothing). Under 3.1, all my BorDlgs are mis-sized. I also noticed that the one in Borland RW were wrong as well. The strange thing is, when I edit my dialogs in RW, they look okay. We are ready to ship to the first few beta sites. We don't want to have to say: "Here's the software, please use it and let us know what you dislike about it. By the way, don't run it in 3.1, it looks ugly," when all of our users probably ran out and bought 3.1 on the 6th. I'd call Borland's tech support number, but I haven't the $$$ to wait on hold all morning.

I'm using 3.1 as well, and I don't have problems. It might be that your system font is messed up. The system font determines the size of a dialog unit. Are you using a Windows 3.1 or 3.0 display driver? -- Darren Senn Phone: (408) 479-1521 sinster@scintilla.capitola.ca.us Snail: 1785 Halterman #1 Wasurenaide -- doko e itte mo soko ni anata wa iru yo.

He indicated that there is indeed a problem with th RW not updating files properly in its dialog boxes and not being able to access all of the system fonts. These are problems they are working on and which will be corrected in their updated releases. -- Donald A.

The system font determines the size of a >dialog unit. Are you using a Windows 3.1 or 3.0 display driver? I've had problems with Borland dialogs since 3.1 beta test. At this point the only problem is whe I disable a radio button, check box, or static text. The button acts like it's disabled - it accepts no input. But the text and button outline is NOT greyed. The text is enlarged from 10pt to 12pt. I use 10 pt Helv. in all my dialog boxes. I create the boxes using Borlands Resource Workshop. Anyone have a similar problem? Jim Ruehlin
