LazReport: Data Inspector in Designer change himself position and size

[MaxLemberger]

Maybe someone have the same problem and this can help him. I think this problem have to do with scaling - i have scaled my monitors.

This is probably due to an interaction between the different scaling settings in the program and the operating system.

The first time when I worked with designer no problem. After any times started the designer the Data Inspector  will go to another position and become bigger and I could not change this. I have searched one day for my error or some problems because installed some packages - the problem continued. Examples I loaded down - same effect. I was working with Lazarus 4.0 under Windows 11 24H2.

Then I have installed Lazarus 3.6 with only the components for LazReport to check. Same effect. Then I was sure it comes from LazReport. I have found then a ini-file lrFieldsList.cfg in Appdata\Local (Windows 11 24H2) for save only for the Data Inspector the position and the height and width about over 70000 and impossible position.

I have searched in sourcecode and found in C:\Lazarus\components\lazreport\source\lr_design_ins_filed.pas at line 158 
procedure TlrFieldsList.RestorePos; 

There will be loaded the last position - and for the first time I have solved the problem to stop reading the values and take the start values.

procedure TlrFieldsList.RestorePos;
var
  Ini:TIniFile;
begin
  (*
  if FileExistsUTF8(IniFileName) then
    begin
      Ini:=TIniFile.Create(IniFileName);
      Left:=Ini.ReadInteger('Position', 'Left', Left);
      Top:=Ini.ReadInteger('Position', 'Top', Top);
      Height:=Ini.ReadInteger('Position', 'Height', Height);
      Width:=Ini.ReadInteger('Position', 'Width', Width);
      Ini.Free;
    end
  else *)
    begin
      Width  :=300;
      Height :=400;
      Top    :=120;
      Left   :=40;
    end;
end;   

This change - comment out - load now the Data Inspector on the standard position.

Next: To change the width and height is also impossible.
