Form units

The size and position of controls on a form are defined in terms of form units (units of measurement). Form units also determine the resolution of the form.

You can define a form in dialog units (characters), centimeters, inches, or pixels. A dialog unit is the size of the form’s current font. Use dialog units to maintain the same proportions in a form when using different screen resolutions.

Use the Vertical factor and Horizontal factor properties to determine fractions of dialog units for finer resolution.

Vertical factor

The vertical resolution within each unit of measurement. A higher value gives a finer resolution.

Horizontal factor

The horizontal resolution within each unit of measurement. A higher value gives a finer resolution.

Form name

The Name in the Form Editor. This Name appears in the title bar of the form.
