What do you think happens when a window is resized? ;) It's usually an oversight if an app is written with the expectation of permanent unchanging window dimensions. (even console-based Midnight Commander redraws itself to fit if its containing console is resized, though without the patch I'm polishing up it can't switch from horizontal to vertical layout automatically, just reshapes itself to fit) Even developing for a purely cellphone environment with modal apps you shouldn't presume you'll always have the same dimensions - in three months there might be an updated model with a higher resolution, for example. j _______________________________________________ support mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
