Re: AW: failing snapshot when system textsize > 100%

This seems like a bug (that a restart is required) and should probably 
be reported to the LiveCode Quality Center as a bug?

When you change the system text size on windows, you have to restart the
machine. Without restart the windows are already resized, but some programs
like LC don't get the new system parameter to work with. E.g. the
systemPixelScale only gets updated after a restart. After a restart the
globalLoc() also gets the correct rect - good to know.
Thanks for listening

Betreff: failing snapshot when system textsize > 100%

Hello,

working with LC 9.0.2 on windows 10

I take snapshots of parts of my stack, which works fine as long as the
system display setting is set to 100% text size.

When you set the system text size to > 100% the export snapshot function
grabs wrong rectangles (which are located topleft to the wanted rect).

I tried to use globalLoc(), without success, it still grabs a wrong (but
other as in case 1) rect topleft of the target rect. I tried to add the
stack location coords to the target rect, but that's too much.

I know there must be any parameter to get the system text scale, but I
didn't found it yet (it's really hard, if you have no idea, how the property
could be named). Perhaps I can scale my rect by this system text scale
factor? Or does anybody knows any other property or function I could use to
shift my export snapshot rect to the correct target?

Thanks for any ideas

Tiemo
