Post From: Spontaneous font shrinkage - seriously weird

When you use the standard Windows operating system font selector window in Sierra Chart, the operating returns what is called an LOGFONT structure. There is a member of that which contains the logical height of the font. That structure is saved as the user selected font. That is then just simply used to get a handle to a font. We just checked, it is that straightforward and simple. Sierra Chart is handling this completely properly. There was never an issue like this before Windows 10. Perhaps with Windows 8 but we do not remember. So if we change this, we start doing something different than what has already been established and it can create some internal confusion with the code. The subject line of this thread is simply explaining the behavior of the Windows operating system. So yes the Windows operating system does do weird things. This is not the first time people blame operating system problems on Sierra Chart. There is another thread about this temporary flash of white when switching to a window. We notice that across all windows applications at times. It is very annoying when using a dark background. This is not a Sierra Chart issue at all. Visual Studio does the same stupid thing. Until such time that the operating system can draw the nonclient area of the window and then give the program a paint message, it just simply uses a white background for the window or sometimes the title bar color and there is no way to change that color.
