LiveCode Forums.

I made a very simple app with two buttons, a slider and a couple labels. The stack size is 150x150. It works fine on Windows.

When I build the .apk and install it on Android it works, but takes up the entire screen. I tried unchecking "resizeable", as well as "Live Resizing", but it continues to take up the full screen when I run it on Android.

Can anyone tell me how to control the size of the app on Android, and prevent it from taking the whole screen. I did a quick search of the forums and did not find an answer. Please forgive me if this has already been covered somewhere.

Thanks for any advice or suggestions,

TJ.

Hi TJ,

I'm afraid Livecode apps will always and only open fullscreen on iOS and Android.

Hi Klaus,

Thanks for your reply. I have a second idea that might work for myself, and possibly other users?

Is there a way I could have a full screen app that displays my app in one corner, then the rest of the app is transparent and (hopefully?) could allow clicks/touches to pass thru to the items covered by the app.

Is something like that possible?

Thanks again,

TJ.

Hi TJ,

nice idea, but no way
