In general, no. The desktop font size is a system-wide parameter. You are better off designing your dialogs to work correctly with the 'large fonts' setting (the simplest solution) or adding code to have the dialogs automatically resize/reposition their controls (complicated, but the only way to guarantee similar proportions regardless of the desktop setting).

Hi, I've created a unicode application, that should display (in a static control) some international text of unknown origin (any language).
I understand that I have to choose a font for my control, and I was wondering what font I should select. I've heard Arial Unicode MS is pretty good, but it's still very much behind the latest Unicode standard (which is 4.0). Do you know which font is the best and most comprehensive unicode-font out there to date? Do you have any links to such fonts? I've tried looking up fonts on the web, and I can't seem to find anything reasonable - only some no-namers that I don't really want to use for a commercial application...

I use Microsoft Sans Serif if that's of any help!

Unfortunately, it's not covering most of the Unicode standard. It only represents 1403 characters. The Unicode standard, as it is todays, holds tens of thousands of characters.

When you want to justify to the right you need to use the Indent function
CToolbarCtrl::SetIndent

I have now created an application that utilises the createpipe() function,
based on the response that I got yesterday. The application that I am trying to control only uses function keys(F2,F3, etc..), it does not accept text commands. I have tried using Virtual Key Codes (VK_F2, VK_ENTER, etc,..), however this does not seem to have any effect on the application that I am trying to control. Again, does anybody have any ideas?
Thanks again in advance.

Have you looked at the SendInput API in Win32?

I am trying to create an application that will take an ascii text file when dropped onto its Icon.
The application needs to be able to open this file for reading and then create a new ascii text file for writing.
Can anyone help.
Kind regards in advance.

Hi, I'm writing an international application, and therefore, I need to display dates and times using the user-locale. When I go to: Control Panel->Regional Settings->Regional Options tab->customize->Date tab, I see TWO date formats: SHORT and LONG.
Now, I write the following lines in my code:
COleDateTime date;
date.SetDate(2003,10,23);
CString s = date.Format((DWORD)VAR_DATEVALUEONLY); // format the date only
When I display 's', the contents of 's' are the SHORT version of the date, as it is configured in the dialog mentioned above.
My question is : how does COleDateTime know to choose the SHORT version and not the LONG version? Is it configurable through code? The reason I'm asking, is that later on I need to use the same string in order to populate another COleDateTime object, using the COleDateTime::ParseDateTime method, and I have to be sure that the method will work. As far as my tests went, ParseDateTime FAILED when given a LONG date string, so I have to be absolutely sure that COleDateTime::Format will ALWAYS use the SHORT date. And if possible, issue some command to ensure this.
Any ideas? Thanks.

It might have something to do with the VT_DATE type being used by COleDateTime.

Can you please explain what you mean? As far as I know, the VT_DATE is the only date-related variant type... it's not like there's a VT_LONGDATE or something like that... how do I know that VT_DATE is associated with the short date-time version?

Why don't you use COleDateTime::Format(_T("%m/%d/%Y")); ?
|
|
|
|
|
Because the application must be internationalized, that is, culture and language sensitive. If the user uses a locale that presents dates as YYYY-MM-DD (as in Japan, for example), I cannot force a different date format on him.

ParseDateTime is meant to work in all cases (well that's according to the documentation) and I think you can use Format(_T("%x")) or %#x to get short or long format to select the short or long format...

thanks! I haven't noticed these tokens...

Instead of using VAR_DATEVALUEONLY, maybe you can use GetLocaleInfo using either LOCALE_SLONGDATE or LOCALE_SSHORTDATE to return the locale-formatted string, and use that in COleDateTime::Format().
I've never tried this personally, but I have something similar that does work.
