Across the board, Factor has the single best cross-platform UI system of any 
programming platform I've ever come across. Everything is made so simple yet 
usually in a way that doesn't remove any programming opportunities.

Yet something which always seems absent from all Factor UI (really I mean 
windowing) code is setting the specific width and height with which to draw a 
window or UI or UI element. (Obviously this is usually a good thing, since you 
can just throw gadgets and have the scaling done for you.)

From my basic understanding everything in the UI has scale 1x unless you say 
otherwise, but changing this doesn't give scaling to pixel amounts.

Suppose I want the Factor listener (or my own custom UI) to always launch at 
certain dimensions (480x640 maybe, accounting for HiDPI) and "squish" 
scrollable or scalable gadgets.

Can I do it with the high-level UI programming interface, or does it require 
custom code at the platform-specific level?

Thank you!
