Scaling problems

Question

My program works fine on my system, the problem is that my mate is using win7 and Iam using win10. The buttons and the whole window is adjusted on win7.

So I think to work with ClientSize but I don't have a real solution.

WPF picks a default theme determined by the operating system version. This is so it's consistent with the user's experiece of the operating system. It's usually fine on most applications, but becomes a problem with more complex UX design.

If you want your system to look the same, you have to force-load a specific operating system theme.

Add this in your Application Startup event:

Uri uri = new Uri(“PresentationFramework.Aero;V3.0.0.0;31bf3856ad364e35;component\\themes/aero.normalcolor.xaml”, UriKind.Relative);

Resources.MergedDictionaries.Add(Application.LoadComponent(uri) as ResourceDictionary);
