Hello,

I have developed a windows application for my project in Visual Studio2005, using C# .NET 2.0.
It is developed in English (US) XP.
But when the application is run in a Japanese system (with Japanese XP), all the controls like labels, textbox, buttons etc. change size. And due to this the text at many places truncate. The main form size remains same but all other controls shrink upwards leaving a blank space at the bottom of the form.

I tried changing the regional settings to Japanese in my system and run the GUI. But it seems fine here.

Please suggest me how to handle this regional settings.

The controsl supports unicode?... try setting the UseCompatibleTextRemdering property.

Hi harsh bolia,

I have met the same problem before. When I developed an application in Chinese OS and run it on English OS, it displays strange as you said. There is no document talking about this issue.

Base on my experience, in different language OS, the installed font is different. When we develop it on Chinese OS, the default font is "Song Ti". While in English OS, the "Song Ti" is not included by default until you installed "East Asia Language".

My advice is put enough space for the buttons/labels etc. Use common font family. Change the region and language setting to Japanese on the English develop pc. It might avoid some problem.

Sincerely,
Kira Qian
