#1370 Font distortion when Calender viewer is opened

[bwDraco]

The font may become distorted in several contexts when the Calender viewer is opened:

• On a new configuration (without a pre-existing taskcoach.ini), the font for the time in the Calender viewer is enlarged and stretched.
• On an older configuration inherited from version 1.3.7, opening the Calender viewer causes the font used in Tasks and Categories lists to become enlarged and stretched. This persists even after closing the Calender viewer.

This applies to both the 1.3.23 release and the pre-release build 1.3.25.6025.

Additional attachments are here, including an old TaskCoach.ini file (inherited from version 1.3.7) and a screenshot of the bug with this configuration file.

Regarding "pre-release build 1.3.25.6025": I meant 1.3.23.6025, sorry.

Not fixed. Fonts are still distorted in the Calender viewer with a new configuration. An error is reported upon closing; the error log is attached. These are the relevant lines:

I'll fix this. BTW what do you exactly mean by "distorted" ? They're as big as intended (in order to take up all available space).

[bwDraco]

The fonts seem to be out of proportion, rather than just increased in size, and are so large that characters may overlap on a windows that is not maximized.

[Jérome Laheurte]

Aaah yes the aspect ratio is all wrong. Didn't notice because my viewer has the exact aspect ratio that makes it OK...

Could you try the latest build from http://www.fraca7.net/TaskCoach-packages/latest_bugfixes.py to see if it works for you ?

[bwDraco]

The bug seems to be fixed in build 6056. Thanks.
