Hi All,

Is anyone else having an issue with the MessageBox being smaller in 2022 R2 then 2021.

In our application it is small both horizontally and vertically. 

Vertically it is cutting of the bottom of the buttons.

Horizontally it is right up against the text with no white space.

Thanks,

Rick

I am using the PFC, but I traced it down and the PFC ultimately uses the PB MessageBox command.

I have tried it on several different monitors with different resolutions and scaling, and all have the same results. Also none of them have any issues in PB2021.

Hi,

  • Are you using the MessageBox() command or PFC messages?
  • Do you have a "scaling" different to 100% in you windows settings?

This is how a normal MessageBox looks like on my machine Pb 2022 R2.

What calls my attention is the red X on the left.

If I use StopSign! it looks like this, quite different to your X:

 

regards.

I was wrong, PFC does use a custom message box. Now I need to figure out what changed and how to fix it. I'll let you know what I find.
