=====Scaling an Entire Screen or Portion of a Screen=====
A new Screen Editor feature has been added to stretch/shrink a number of selected screen controls by a specified percentage. The height and width of the controls can be stretched as with their XY positions. The horizontal and vertical directions can be Stretched/Shrunk independently. Scaling the Vertical direction will also scale any Font point settings. The Width and Height of the entire dialog will also be scaled accordingly.
To Scale a Screen:
# Select the controls to be scaled - usually all controls (drag a box to select multiple controls)
# Select mode: Screen Scale
# Select the desired Size Change as a percentage 1-100% (ie 60% corresponds to a stretch/shrink factor of 1.6)
# Push Increase/Decrease Width button
# Push Increase/Decrease Height button
Note: it is best to scale in one step vs multiple steps as control widths and font sizes are integers and may have rounding after each step.
Note: any bitmap images will be unchanged and remain the same size. They can be manually scaled with a graphics app if necessary.
If not in the current Version a Version with scaling added can be downloaded here (place in \KMotion\Release Directory):
