Jim,
You can check for Large Fonts this way:
on mouseUp
if stsHasLargeFonts() then
-- whatever you want to do
end if
end mouseUp
function stsHasLargeFonts
switch (the systemVersion)
case "NT 5.1" -- Windows XP
case "NT 5.0" -- Windows 2000
put queryRegistry("HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Software\Fonts\LogPixels") into
dpi -- this is a DWORD
put charToNum(dpi) into dpi
if dpi = 96 then return false
else return true
break
case "NT 4.0" -- Windows NT 4.0
put queryRegistry("HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\FontDPI") into dpi -- this is a DWORD
put charToNum(dpi) into dpi
if dpi = 96 then return false
else return true
break
case "Windows 4.90" -- Windows ME
case "Windows 4.10" -- Windows 98
case "Windows 4.0" -- Windows 95
put queryRegistry("HKEY_CURRENT_CONFIG\Display\Settings\DPILogicalX")
into dpi
if dpi = 96 then return false
else return true
break
end switch
end stsHasLargeFonts
As to how to resize your stacks *based* on whether the user is running Large
Fonts... that's something someone else should chime in on...
