Scaling issue with siColorDialog

Hi

I have been trying to make sure my programs will behave nicely on Windows 10 when the user has chosen to use Scaling > 100%.

In that process I see that the siColorDialog does not scale nicely. The dialog and its text scales, but the color array does not. This causes an ugly overlapping at higher percentages (eg 175%).

Am I doing something wrong or is this something you should address?

I have just discovered that the VCL TColorDialog has the same problem. :(

I guess it is over to Embarcadero to fix this.

Hi Igor

Using W10 20H2, I just tried using the VCL TColorDialog which wraps the MS system component to see if MS had fixed its scaling bugs.

So far as I can tell it now scales OK at different dpi values etc. If you also find this is true you might want to restore TsiColorDialog to your component palette in the next release.

Hi Malcolm,

Thank you for the info. But TsiColorDialog was never removed from components palette. It should be there as always.
