My entire enterprise-level application uses Infragistics App styling through out. It was to my dismay when I tried to update our product to use the latest Infragistics version (2010.1) that all text boxes were suddenly oversized.
I have created a test application that boils down this issue to a very small number of possibilities. The only possibility that I see left is that Infragistics has changed something internally that has caused the text editor control to render larger under the exact same circumstances.
As I am sure you can imagine, for me to have to go through my entire application (which consists of more than 70 forms) to try to adjust for this size difference would be entirely unfeasible.
Attached is my sample solution containing projects against 2008.2 and 2010.1. The height difference is very noticable.
Do I need to escalate this to support, or is there some workaround available?

Hi Tim,
I ran your sample in v8.1, v8.2, and v10.1 and the UltraTextEditor is the same height in all three. I did not see any difference.
Can you post a screen shot of what it looks like to you?
Tested using 10.1.20101.2027 to no avail. The same issue still exists. What I don't understand is that the issue does not exist on your system. Is perhaps your Segoe UI font different than mine?
Sounds good. Thanks Mike!
Hi,

I didn't say that. I said that the UltraTextEditor was the same size on my machine in every version. There was no way for me to tell if this was the larger size you are seeing or the smaller size.In fact, I went all the way back to v8.1 this morning and the control is always the same height.
I tested this out again, now that I can see what to look for. I placed 2 new UltraTextEditor controls on a form and set one of them to Segoe UI and the actual text appears to be smaller but the height of the UltraTextEditor gets bigger with Segoe UI.The height increases to 24, instead of the default, which is 21.
I have seen some very strange text measurement behavior with Segoe UI in the past and this may be a result of that. But I also tried the same thing with a couple of Label controls and the Label height does not increase at all, so this looks like it might be a bug.
I'm going to forward this thread over to Infragistics Developer Support so they can get it checked out.
