I've tried the example titled "PFC Resize without PFC" by Kevin Ridley (https://community.appeon.com/index.php/codeexchange/powerbuilder/268-pfc-resize-without-pfc#409) and it works fine for window controls, but I've tried to get resizing to work on datawindows and I can't get it to work.
It seems that when activating the service the call to the of_setrequestor() function to reference the datawindow in the instance variable is missing.
There is also nothing in the resize event of u_dw, the service should be called there...
With this I have activated the service in the open event of w_test.
I have tested it on dw_lower in the desc column.
I have tried to scale to the right without success. You have to enlarge the window a lot for the column to start scaling.
I don't know if I called the service wrong or if it works well.
I upload the example with what I have modified.
Can someone help me?

Changing the scaling in Windows does not trigger the Resize event... it only increases/decreases the number of pixels (dots) that are used to render visible objects, which makes them appear to be larger or smaller - producing a net effect that is similar to zooming in/out.
In Windows 10, Microsoft added optional DPI Awareness capabilities for applications, but there are some new API functions that must be called in order for an application to properly make use of this new functionality. Although PB does not currently support DPI Awareness, this capability is on the Roadmap for PB 2025: https://www.appeon.com/developers/roadmap

Thanks John! for above clarification. but still i want some clarification.
I have observed that when the window is open state, if i change the scale value (150 to 125 %) in display setting it affects resize event of the window ( i added message box for height/width). So that window is minimized & found some space right side of the window. if i drag the right edge of the window it doesn't resize / fit.
could you please share your suggestion to fix this. Thanks!

Instead of continuing to clutter this thread with a similar, yet different topic, I suggest you please ask it as a new question. Doing so will also help anyone else that searches the Q&A postings. Hint: It would be helpful for you to include partial screen shots that illustrates exactly what you mean by "doesn't resize / fit". Thanks!
