Hi all,
SystemParametersInfoA and thus also GetSystemMetrics didn't deliver
properly calculated metrics values in the case of at least (!)
SPI_GETBORDER (SM_CXFRAME, SM_CYFRAME), SPI_ICONHORIZONTALSPACING
(SM_CXICONSPACING) and SPI_ICONVERTICALSPACING (SM_CYICONSPACING).
(immediately let me know if you find that I happened to miss any!)
It simply failed to convert a possible Twips value in the registry
of e.g. -1125 to the pixels value of 75.
And once I mention values of -1125 and 75 in the same sentence, you
immediately know that this spells despair and chaos!
And chaotic it was indeed... When minimizing Win98 notepad.exe in Desktop
mode, the icon got placed so far to the bottom that it wasn't even visible
on the Desktop any more.
This bugfix probably fixes several other programs dealing with
these metrics values, too...
The work on this has been triggered by a similar bug on #1272 and the
discussion resulting from it, BTW.
