    Windows 10 - Size of Radio Buttons and Checkboxes

    Hi

    We have a UI where a customer have reported problem when running on Windows 10. On W10 the radio buttons and checkboxes are bigger than "normal" (compared to when they used W7), which give the result that the text is cut off. Even the caption bar is increased in size.

    When we test the UI in our environment, we haven't seen this behaviour. I suppose that this must be due to some kind of setting, but haven't found out where to change.

    Can anyone give me a hint of where to change / which setting.

    Regards

    Have the user check their display settings. The user may have their screen set to something more than 100%.

    Thanks.

    I realize that I was a bit unclear in my question. It is only radio buttons, checkboxes and the caption bar that are bigger. Edit input fields and field header texts have the same size in W7 and W10. It not a general size difference. See the attached file.

    Try the program on a different Windows 10 machine.

    I have done that and on that PC (with W10) it looked "correct", same size for radio buttons and checkboxes as on the W7 PC. That's why I think it must be some setting, making it look different.
