How to make the size of VI and controls unchanged irrespecti​ve of the resolution​?

Question

Hi All,
I have made the exe of my labview application and when i was trying to run it on the users PC the window was almost distorted in the sense the multicolumn list box on the front panel was alligned only to a portion of the screen instead of the full screen.I changed by setting The window size's maintain proportions of window for different monitor resolutions.But still the multicolumn list box was still having problem.
Then i thought of including the next option"scale all the objects on the front panel as the window resizes" but that option was inactive.
I read somewhere to select the control and then from the edit option select "scale object with panel".Unfortunately i could not find such an option in my edit menu even after i selected edit menu after selecting multi column list box which i want to scale according to the front panel.
How do i go forward?
Pls give me some help
Thanks in advance

You can size the area of a control or indicator programmatically using the Size property node. I believe in some cases you can increase the font size of the text in the object to achieve the same result. Here's an example of increasing the size of a system combo box by 100 in both width and height:
