When you change DPI, you break the listbox in icon mode

Let's start from bad pic. As you can see In this dialog, we are always used to seeing single-line output of icons. And now it suddenly became two-line!
And moreover, the output settings are slightly incorrect. I didn't really capture that moment in the picture, sorry...
BUT the icons of the first row are drawing cut off at the bottom border. And the icons of the second row have a focus/selection frame from the bottom that does not reach the real edge of the icon. This again results in a truncation of the rendering.

And here is another object of this form - as we can see - it is very much too attracted to the button:

And all this is the result of choosing DPI=120 in the Total settings. If we return to the DPI=96 mode, then we will see a more pleasant picture:

But even here we must admit = the DDE checkbox is still too close to the button.

1. The DPI setting should only be used with font sizes 8 or 9, because fonts will be scaled with the DPI too.
It's an outdated method to scale dialogs. Please use "Automatically adjust dialog boxes to larger fonts" instead.

2. I can confirm that the choose icon dialog goes to 2 rows of icons. Windows does this by itself when there is enough space. In the button bar, I prevent this by making the items higher. I will try the same in the choose icon dialog too.
