Button pos and floating point error

Hi!

I just downloaded Screenshot Captor 2.41.01

Looks great, but some bugs sneaked in:

 - (I started it from the extracted ZIP, without running the installer) after entering the licence code, I get this dialog: (see attached image)

 - after running it from the USB stick on another PC (Windows 2000) I got this error right after start: (see second image)
After that it works just fine.

Regards,
David

xerces8: my guess is that the two PCs run different locales?

C++ Builder has this wonderful idea of using the locale's thousands-separator when saving values... which works super nicely when moving from a locale that uses '.' separator to a locale that uses ',' :-)

The first problem (button position) is probably on a machine that is configured to use 120-DPI Display size instead of the normal 96-DPI size. A lot of applications don't handle this properly.

xerces8:
Yep, the first PC uses "," and the second uses "." for decimal.

Actually the most programs handle 120DPI well (otherwise I would go crazy)  ;)

f0dder:
A solution would be manually editing the .ini file and swapping ','<->'.' when moving between computers. Tedious, but it's going to work.

mouser:
f0dder is right about the cause.
another solution is to just delete the ini settings file.

i can fix this problem in future versions -- xerces8 can you mail me your ini file so i can help test a solution? ([email protected])
