The nice thing about 14:9 content and noborder is that it splits the difference between 16:9 and 4:3, which is the ratio range for most devices. > On Oct 12, 2015, at 3:31 PM, J. Landman Gay wrote: > > On 10/12/2015 12:09 PM, Richard Gaskin wrote: >> I can see the need to have content in fixed

Thanks Colin and Jacque for those examples. I can see the need to have content in fixed ratios when the content itself is inherently fixed, like movies or full-screen graphics. My own inclination would be to put such content in a group and have that sized and placed along with other controls

Think of any story scene based game, where what you see is not a utility app full of fields and buttons that could be placed using code. You would not want to have to create different artwork for every possible aspect ratio screen. Instead you have extra scenery that gets revealed on wider or ta

I still have that here. It didn’t have any mouse actions at the time I looked at it. So, changing to noBorder could be worth a try. You would have the card be 3:4 ratio, and 9:16 devices would see the middle area, and iPad would see the whole width, and mouse events would all be happening insid

Thanks guys, I guess I need to explain the layout better. This is Swami's stack, which I think Colin has looked at. I'm pretty sure this is a bug, but it just barely borders on understandable behavior so I'm not sure. I've run into multiple issues with visual effects, mouse messages, and other

showAll doesn’t just center things and reveal extra content, it also scales the stack to fill the screen, no matter what size it is. You would have thought that if the background image is an object with a script in it, the touches would register. Maybe you’re using a non-control background imag

I've been trying to figure out some option for this, but only thing that comes to mind is: allowing the stack to fill the display normally, and manually adjusting the card's content to stay centered within the stack. The easiest way to do this would be to have all your controls in a group, if th
