Then I use foxels as units, store the font size to a global variable, and the forms get their size calculated upon activation. Well, not really - if you use foxels, the size is calculated from the active window font size, so I set _screen.fontsize=g_fontsize before instantiating any form. Looks, well, nice enough.
