Designing for various Android screen sizes

Post by lampie12 » Wed Nov 28, 2012 8:53 am

Hi all,

I am new to developing apps, but so far the 'technical side' of developing the app has gone fairly well, but I have some problems with designing (with Photoshop) my Android app for the various screen sizes.
I am aware of the small/large/x-large options in the Android Design guidelines, but I don't know how to put this to practice in LiveCode. Anyone got some tips?

As an example, I want a menubar at the top of the screen, which uses the whole width of the screen on all screen sizes.
