      <para>The <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl" /> class and classes derived from it, such as <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.Form" />, can automatically resize themselves and their contents according to either the current system font or the resolution of the display, measured in dots per inch (DPI). The <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode" /> enumeration defines the automatic scaling modes supported by these classes and their derived types. A control's current mode can be accessed through its <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.AutoScaleMode" /> property.</para>
      <para>Most business applications should use the <see cref="F:System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Font" /> automatic scaling mode. The <see cref="F:System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Dpi" /> scaling mode is useful for graphics-based applications and is compatible with the default scaling used by the .NET Compact Framework.</para>
      <block subset="none" type="note">
        <para>In the .NET Framework versions 1.0 and 1.1, automatic scaling was supported using a simpler mechanism that always relied on the current system font. This mechanism is now obsolete but still supported for backward compatibility. You can obtain the older scaling behavior by setting the <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.Form.AutoScale" /> property of the containing <see cref="T:System.Windows.Forms.Form" /> to true, which will also implicitly set the <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.AutoScaleMode" /> property to <see cref="F:System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.None" />. Conversely, setting the <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.ContainerControl.AutoScaleMode" /> property of a form will set <see cref="P:System.Windows.Forms.Form.AutoScale" /> to false, enabling the newer scaling mechanism introduced with the .NET Framework version 2.0.</para>
