I've decided to migrate my astro applications to my new Windows 7 notebook. Some applications seem to have display ugliness related to text heights in some windows like MaxPoint, CCD Commander's setup window, FocusMax. Refer screenshots attached.
Did some googling and it appears I'm not alone. What appears to be the issue is that in Win7 control panel's appearance settings, the text height is set to 100%. I'm pretty sure that's the default and I like that setting. The solution I've seen posted is to increase the text display height to 125%. I tried that, logged off and on again, and these problem windows did display better. However now all windows and text is 125% bigger. Looks pretty ugly.
Anyone else experienced this and what are you doing to solve?
I had problems with a couple of apps (CCDAP was one) when I had the font size set to a non-default value but as soon as I reset the size to 100% all was good. So, I had the opposite problem to you! FocusMax is perfect on my Win 7 laptop at 100% font size. CCD Commander was fine as well when I tried a demo.
Cheers,
Rick.

Reason: Added comment about CCD Commander.
I had that issue, somehow when I installed Win7 if selected 125% for text height. Couldn't understand why everthing was screwed. Lived with it for about 6months before I found and made the text 100%. All good since then.
