In Windows Form resources if you try to keep the same width and height for controls or dialogs, you will find they will look smaller than they look in Visual studio 6.0. To make the controls and dialogs have a similar size in .NET, it is necessary to multiply the height and width by a scaling factor and also necessary to move the control’s X and Y location by multiplying them with another scaling factor. The result will be a similar looking UI as in MFC or ATL.
