But to take a couple of guesses:
In the second paragraph, what you have written suggests that you have not set the default values for the properties and/or the properties constant correctly. 
"8 times too big" looks like something wrong with your _DefaultSize constant. Remember, it is expressed in Desktop.Scale units.
"caused by a corrupted component?" Probably not, more likely you have not defined the control infrastructure constants correctly. Show us the code.

In the first para "Is this normal"? No, I have not seen anything like that. Again, SUTC!
