I am having a problem with ImageCtrl:

1) The size of the ImageCtrl is smaller than the image displayed, in MSC8 debug mode.
For example, to display a 256x256 image, I have to set the ImageCtrl rect, in the layout designer, to 228x224.

The control works fine in MSC8 Optimal mode.

Units in layout are not exactly pixels; they get "zoomed" according to the actual default system font used (which makes sense, if you think about it Wink

I had the same problem when I was first using Upp. You have two solutions available (both at run-time, you have no way of accurately setting the size at design-time):
1- Resize the control

Rect r = imagectrl.GetRect();
r.SetSize(image.GetSize());
imagectrl.SetRect(r);

2- Rescale the image to fit the ctrl

imagectrl.SetImage(Rescale(image, imagectrl.GetSize()));
