Without having looked to deep into the matter, as a quick solution would it be possible to set a parameter to turn DPI Awareness off?

I have the same problem, looks different in specifics but similar. Coincidentally, I have already placed a request in the technical support forum. Is the real problem the lack of layout managers in powerbasic? Tcl, Python, and Java (all free) have them so you do not have to redact a program just because a user wants a bigger font. That is why you give the user a choice, so she can actually use what she wants. These kind of irksome details make powerbasic gui programs fragile and not nearly as appealing to the user as more modern alternatives can provide.

I have this combobox alignment problem fixed. The Project Properties dialog and other FF dialogs that use comboboxes will now display in the correct positions when the DPI settings are set to other than 100%. I need to now modify FF's font handling to take into account scaling. This will entail using the font creation and handling that is built into cWindow.
