Background Image Scaled in Confirmation Dialog

When we use scaling of the background image for the Surface Theme, it works well with the OS' image scaling.
But in the Cancel Confirmation Dialog, it is also scaled and since the Confirmation Dialog box is smaller. The image is scaled to be smaller which is an undesirable behavior.
Please refer to attached image.
Is there a way to:
1. Stop the confirmation and other dialog from using the Surface Theme BG image?
2. Or to not scale the BG image in other dialogs.

We tried disabling scaling in the settings but when the OS Scaling is changed in the control panel the BG Image will not be scaled which is an undesirable behavior as well.

Re: Background Image Scaled in Confirmation Dialog

Hello,

The only way to avoid this behavior will be to configure "CancelDlg" dialog not to use the background image or to use another image as background. However, please note this option requires our "Dialog Editor" feature which is available only starting with an "Enterprise" project type.

All you would have to do is to go to "Dialogs" page, select the "CancelDlg" and in the "Properties" right pane select the "Bitmap" control in the upper side combo box. Then,in the "Display" section configure the background image you want to use (or not) for this dialog.

If you have any questions let us know.

All the best,
Daniel
