Visual studio designer property window vs designer file


I have a problem with my visual studio GUI designer. The designer shows different values from my .designer.cs file. For example, item simpleButtonPrint, in the designer I have the following properties:

// 
        // simpleButtonPrint
        // 
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Anchor = ((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles)((System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Top | System.Windows.Forms.AnchorStyles.Right)));
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Appearance.BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.FromArgb(((int)(((byte)(204)))), ((int)(((byte)(204)))), ((int)(((byte)(204)))));
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Appearance.Options.UseBackColor = true;
        this.simpleButtonPrint.ButtonStyle = DevExpress.XtraEditors.Controls.BorderStyles.Flat;
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Image = ((System.Drawing.Image)(resources.GetObject("simpleButtonPrint.Image")));
        this.simpleButtonPrint.ImageLocation = DevExpress.XtraEditors.ImageLocation.MiddleCenter;
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(1146, 640);
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Margin = new System.Windows.Forms.Padding(15);
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Name = "simpleButtonPrint";
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(98, 98);
        this.simpleButtonPrint.TabIndex = 9;
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Text = "simpleButton4";
        this.simpleButtonPrint.Click += SimpleButtonPrint_Click;

In my designer.cs file, the size is 98, 98. In my properties window from visual studio the size is 131, 121. See the screenshot below:

The problem is when I make any change in the GUI designer, it modifies my designer.cs file as how it is in the GUI designer. It should be a problem with my visual studio, as when my coworker gets the same version from TFS, he does not have the same problem. Any suggestions on how to fix this issue?

    I changed the scaling mode from Font to DPI, now everything works fine.
