Resize screen and controls

Post by manishbangia »

How to define screen and controls size dynamically, so that sable project resizes itself according to the system it is running on?

Note: We tried 'Workspace -> Properties -> Advance -> Screen Size -> Resize controls to fit screen' but it does not resize the controls, which lead to undesired results as some of the controls are inaccessible as there are no scroll bars.

You are in the right area.

In Developer, you need to set the screen size you are developing on and then tick "resize controls to fit screen". Now open the project in Sable Runtime and it should resize correctly.

Developer will not resize. This is by design, as it's best to design on a fixed size screen (so you know where all the controls are), and then resize in the actual runtime environment.
