Part of my card is not showing

Post by abanowBUSTfGf » Mon Jan 07, 2013 12:52 pm

I created a card of size 450 wide x660 high but when I run it on
an Android (which has a screen size of 720 x 1280 around 25% of the screen
cannot be seen. Any suggestions?
Thanks

I don't know if this is true with Android but when running an iPhone (3?) app on iPad it gives you the choice to go 2X, that is double the size of the running app.
I'm wondering if your Android is doing just that automatically? Doubling the size of your app?
Try making an app at 360 x 640 and see if it fills the screen.

It shouldn't do that. Did you write any resizing scripts that might be placing objects offscreen? The card size on mobile is always set to the screenrect and can't be changed.
