• Hi !

  Seeing your name, I think you're french but for everybody I will not speak french (mais vive la baguette, le saucisson et le bon pinard quand même ^^).

  I try to make an application fit to the screen too. For the iPhone, you can use percentages, for example :

      var text = Titanium.UI.createTextField
      ({
          value:'Hello',
          top:'10%,
          left:'10%',
          width:'80%',
          height:'auto'
      });
  

  This runs very good but on Android, your percentages goes to interpret like pixels size, so it's "hard-coded".

  The only solution that I found is to create a function which calcul a size or a position by takking care of the resolution because you can get the resolution. For the moment I didn't develop this one but I'm working on it. See DisplayCaps !
  I post my function when she runs ;)

  Regards !

  You can do this by either using a conditional statement to an absolute position based upon the platform:

  var isAndroid = Titanium.Platform.name == 'android';
  var sampleText = Titanium.UI.createLabel({
      text:    'Some sample text',
      height:    'auto',
      width:    (isAndroid ? 100: 200),
      top:    100,
      left:    10,
      color:    '#000',
      font:{    fontSize:    12,
          fontFamily:    'sans-serif'},
      textAlign:    'left'
      });
  

  or you can use the Titanium.Platform.displayCaps to set a relative position:

  var sampleText = Titanium.UI.createLabel({
      text:    'Some sample text',
      height:    'auto',
      width:    parseInt(Titanium.Platform.displayCaps.platformWidth,10)-40,
      top:    100,
      left:    10,
      color:    '#000',
      font:{    fontSize:    12,
          fontFamily:    'sans-serif'},
      textAlign:'left'
      });
  

  Hope this helps

• Just curious, do you guys use a single code base for both Android and Iphone?

  Do you do these selection during runtime?

  1. What size of image to use?
  2. Using windows/views animations?
  3. etc, etc.

• Hello,

  Thanks for yours answers !

  @Antoine Vigneau : I didn't now that percentages works with Iphone, it can be a good news. I go to test that. (Et oui je suis français et j'aime la baguette et le saucisson :D)

  @Gregor Munro : Thanks for your help, it's a good idea to test depending the resolution plateform.

  @Peter Lum : Yes I try to have the same code for iphone and android but if it's impossible I change depending the plateform.
  I use absolute size for image and I don't use animatiaon for view and window
