Default Font Scaling is a real issue for me

Hi,

I tried to do something using the native resolution of a HTC Touch HD (480x800 portrait). See enclosed zip for a quick and dirty example.

Problem: In native resolution the device dpi is not known to the Desktop IDE. This works especially quirky with NumUpDown and Calendar Control, but also for ComboBox.

So, what would be required for me are the following fixes:

1. A Desktop Designer option to chose a target resolution, so that desktop design corresponds to the device w.r.t. to (relative) font sizes and control sizes (heights).

2. The possibility to set font/sizes and/or Control heights in all controls.

Best regards.
Jens
