Family Origins 10.0 and LEADTOOLS

Attachment: leadtools.jpg
Reply Quote
Hello;
I have an old program Called "Family Origins 10.0" made by a companycalled FormalSoft that I use to keep my family history. Unfortunately, they went out of business a few years back.
It appears that they used LEADTOOLS dll's to control the rendering of images in the program (See attached image).
The problem is, I cannot find a way to resize the pop-up window default size when displaying/opening images. I can "drag" the pop-up window to any size, but the next time I open an image it is too small again (see attached example).
I see no setting in the program, INIs, Registry keys or CFG files that define the default window size so I am hoping you can help me. Is anyone still around that may know where these defaults were defined and how I may redefine the initial window load size??? Any utilities or tools you have for the dlls?

I appreciate any help you can offer.

Fred Berardi

Fred,
The program appears to be using one of our LEADTOOLS toolkits, which means its author was probably one of our customers. However, I'm afraid LEAD can do nothing about this problem for 2 reasons:

1. We only address issues related to our own functions and products, not to third-party products that were created by our customers. We can only provide direct support to our clients, not to their clients.

2. In this particular case, this part of the program's operation (determining initial window size) is controlled by the application itself. It is not something that can be controlled by our LEADTOOLS toolkit in any way. The programmer who has the source code of the application itself can change this behavior.
