Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jun 15, 2017 #6 You are talking about Xamarin.Forms. I'm not sure that it is so successful (https://forums.xamarin.com/discussion/97145/i-gave-up-on-xamarin-forms). The code that will be required to create the layouts will be different and much more complicated as you will need to handle the resize events. The visual designer actually hides a lot of the difference between the platforms. Upvote 0
