Cableguy Expert Licensed User Longtime User Jul 8, 2015 #4 use percentage when positioning like label1.Left = 10%x imagine your screen in a grid, make it as small as you are confortable with and place your views. use anchors, try to relativize to the max the views positions, like the next view left is taken from the previous view right.

Alberto Michelis Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Jul 9, 2015 #9 I am using AutoScale, not using anchors, no need, the screen is very very simple, it looks ok but the font size and the list line height are smaller than a phone. I´ve posted my .bal, its easy to see. Upvote 0

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jul 10, 2015 #10 I don't see a call to AutoScaleAll in the layout file. BTW, anchors are very simple to use. Upvote 0
