• Visual Studio Tools for Office c

  When I change Excel zoom from 100% and try to click any winforms controls on the spreadsheet I get this dialog: Windows Forms controls have been disabled because the document has been scaled. When zoom is returned to 100%, controls will reactivate. I imagine many users scale their documents due to various screen resolution preferences. Is document scaling other than 100% going to be supported by VSTO in the future Actually, it looks like WinForms controls now do have some support for scaling. It may be possible for us to address this issue for existing controls. We will definitely investigate this. Sincerely, Geoff Darst Microsoft VSTO Team ...Show All
