Android app screen size

Post by UtahCode197 » Tue Jul 30, 2013 1:43 pm

How do I make an android app that will scale itself to the screen size of the tablet and the elements (cards) scale themselves and move themselves automatically and accordingly?

Thanks

We are currently implementing resolution independence into LiveCode and this will bring automatic scaling to your applications.
Thank goodness! That is one of the main reasons that I have not started making mobile apps yet.

Dear Andrew,

I too cannot wait to try out the new resolution independence features as it will allow the creation of scaleable mobile applications with a lot less effort :)

More information on this and other ongoing developments can be viewed on our roadmap here-
