[Bug?] Windows display settings causes boolean text to overshoot

I built a program and transferred it to a coworker to test. When he opened it, there were several visual glitches including boolean button text and multiple y axis plot issues. After several hours of troubleshooting, I realized it was because I had my graphics settings on my desktop slightly different.

 

If you right click (Windows 7) on desktop -> personalize -> display, you will see an option to "Make it easier to read what's on your screen".  Default in Win 7 is 125%.  This sets LabVIEW application font to 20 instead of 15 (like 100% and 150%) do.  As a result, it changes the look of your application.

 

Has this been observed before, and is there a fix?  note:  It also causes visual glitches on within LabVIEW development UI itself. If you look at the "Med (125%)" attached png, you will see that the bottom of Application Font" has been chopped off.
