Thanks Sebastien, It's more clear now. I see that on the phone, the MainView is always the size of the screen, regardless of what width and height you specify. For example, on a 40gu screen, a Rectangle of width 60 inside the MainView will overflow. But if you set its width relative to parent.width, it will fit, no matter what was the specified MainView's width. I was trying the first approach - hence my question.
