I'm not sure I buy that; the positions of the StaticTexts are in window coordinates, not relative to the canvas they're in. They real problem may be one of ordering; they need to be moved after the canvas rather than before, or else the move of the canvas will move them too.

That's not true. When you hide the desktop or go into fullscreen, the MainWindow fills the entire monitor. This means that on my cinema display, the mScale is scaling to fit _vertically_ not horizontally. Thus your original code would be attempting to position those controls too far to the left. Trust me, it's right. :)


I've found a couple of other bugs and a few other fixes but none perfect yet because of other bugs.

I appreciate it, but it's not necessary for you to find fixes. Please just report any bugs you observe.

Too late.
