Hello Guys,

Currently, I am converting my project ( already written to in ASCII to support English and english like launguages) to unicode.

The purpose is to support japanese and other non-ebglish launguage.

I have a a question here.

Question: As Japanese text will be large in size, how should I ensure that strings are getting accomadate in dailaog controls.

Lets take a samll example where I have to accomodate a japanese string in a button or Sataic Text control.
How will I increase size of button based on size of string?

I need answer for win 32 and MFC.

Can you give your input?

Regards,
Joy

You can change the Font of the dialog from dialog properties. Ensure, your VC++ program supports unicode.

Take a look at this as well http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/forums/en-US/86bb5afb-4fdf-46d8-91ca-3d6596a1887b/runtime-change-a-mfc-c-dialogbox-font-size
