Hi Bevor, Have you read about independent pixels (dip) in Android.
Take a look at, if you have not already done so at : http://developer.android.com/intl/fr/guide/practices/screens_support.html Basically, the device can lie to your app whenever you set pixels on a device, to make your app look the same across different screen sizes and screen pixels density. Another way to go around your problem could be to overlay your controls on the playing screen, this way you don't have to take them into account in your calculation. Check out, Replica Island in the market to see what I mean. Good luck and keep at it :) Yahel On 5 avr, 09:39, Bevor <andr...@pithax.net> wrote: > Hello, > > thanks for your answer.
