HI Rich.. 1) you'd have to have an event handler listen for the pinch gesture and then scale your grid based on how much you want it to scale/shrink
http://paultrani.com/2011/02/touch-events-and-gestures-on-mobile/ ( look at pinch/zoom) 2) you there are a few methods to handle the DPI variation, we generally target the primary device and set our application dpi to that ( for example I'm building an app for a 7" android right now and have my DPI set to 166), there is quite a good article here on handling DPI http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/DPI+Auto+Scaling+for+Density+Independent+Mobile+Apps Cheers Grant --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com<mailto:flexcoders%40yahoogroups.com>, Richard Albrecht <Rich@...<mailto:Rich@...>> wrote: > > Hi, > > First time writing to a group in many years.
