I am overthinking this. A group that is visible but layered under another object would do it. 1. Turn on accelerated rendering 2. Scroll the group programmatically from top to bottom as many times as possible in a quarter second. 3. Adjust the div size based on the number of times it can do the

It looks like we need to use a combination of requestAnimationFrame and performance.now in JavaScript to test the GPU. I would rather test the GPU in LC, but I don't know how to do that without having a visible animation on the screen. Sent from my iPhone > On Aug 3, 2017, at 9:05 AM, jonathan

Thanks Roger, In this case, the issue is more with the map presented in a browser widget, which is less about LC and more about the embedded chrome framework. I think that my device is not really a high-end android machine, either. It looks like max-texture-size might be a decent proxy for meas

I would be more inclined to not say in general "...that Android runs slower...", but rather "Android runs LiveCode apps slower." There are plenty of Android apps in the Play store that handle large graphics VERY well on Android. It may or may not be just how LiveCode rolls, as an improved experie

Hi Hermann, That page is a great resource! Some of their measurements might be a good proxy for GPU power, like the max viewport size and a couple others. It would be preferable to fully internalize the system check. I will look through the page source to see what JS commands they use to measu

Thank you, Jacqueline, It sounds like I need to find a way to detect the processing speed of the device. If it is below a certain level, it could adjust the div viewport for the map proportionally to the processing power. It could reduce the size of the div, then reexpand it, using a 2d trans

Android devices come with a variety of different specifications. The high end models will be more capable than low end ones. Depending on manufacturer and model, the graphics card will vary in capability and available RAM. Screen resolution also makes a difference. I'm using older test devices

Hi Rod, When you execute "adb devices", is you device showing as online and authorized? Sometimes deployment issues can occur if other programs are trying to access the device. I would try a quick restart of your computer to see if that resolves the issue. Kind Regards, Neil L

Hi Neil, Thanks for your quick reply. I have now managed to get adb to find the device but sadly LC (7.0.5) does not see it in "Test Target" so it's effectively the opposite of before. As for ADB I am using 1.0.31 on a Mac (10.7.5). Kind regards, Rod Rod McCall Researchers on HCI, Augmented Re
