Hello.
I try to display long description text with nice word wrapping using RadLabel.
To do that I set AutoSize=true but control Width of RadLabel setting MaximumSize.
I set the maximum size and recalculate it every time Form's size changes.
Everything works fine until you change the DPI settings in the system.
When you do this and change MaximumSize property at runtime my value will be multiplied by the scaling value.
And since I use form size (which is already scaled) I got doubled scale.
For example if I set scaling 150% my value be multiplied by 1.5.
Below I gave examples of my code and screenshots from different DPI.
100% https://clip2net.com/s/3YxZaSZ
150% https://clip2net.com/s/3YxZom6
200% https://clip2net.com/s/3YxZees
I use Telerik 2018.3.1016.20 with .Net 3.5
I very much rely on your help and advice.

The MaxSize and other size properties need to be scaled when running on HDPI. This is expected and you need to descale the size. We have built-in methods for this. Here is what you can use for this case:
radLabel1.MaximumSize = TelerikDpiHelper.ScaleSize(maximumSize, new SizeF(1f / this.RootElement.DpiScaleFactor.Width, 1f / this.RootElement.DpiScaleFactor.Height));This will work for 100% as well.
I hope this will be useful. Let me know if you have additional questions.
