[WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout

[WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout Hello everyone, I am trying to add a new platform into the choice of platforms for layouts but there doesn't seem to be any option to do so? And I am limited to only 1 platform that I was able to add in the initial wizard but nothing more beyond that, can anyone help? And is there any way to modify the existing platform on layouts? https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793506#msg-793506 Thu, 18 Jun 2026 19:38:13 +0200 Phorum 5.2.23 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793522#msg-793522 Re: [WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793522#msg-793522
I also use the smallest layout and work with anchors.
This works pretty good, I think you are doing something wrong.

Might be you can upload a sample project into a cloud?

Prior to using windev layouts:

The UI is just too small on bigger tablet resolutions so it looks messy and out of place

After using windev layouts:

on the layout made for lower res tablet, the UI gets cut off on the right

on the layout made for higher res tablet, the UI is not in the proper place, and there is a large empty gap at the bottom.

both of these are using anchoring]]> RobertLeo WinDev Forum Tue, 14 Jul 2020 12:01:00 +0200 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793519#msg-793519 Re: [WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793519#msg-793519
I have to say it took me a long time to understand anchoring, but it does work on complicated layouts over different resolution devices. I too work on the smallest generic phone screen, and the layouts looks find on both Samsung Note 9 and Sony tablet.

What is going wrong with the layout?

in the GUI tab of the Window there is a setting "Unit for sizes and positions.."
I have that set on "Desktop AND Mobile compatible"
If I remember correctly "Desktop OR Mobile compatible" gave me some struggles in the past. Not sure why, but maybe it helps

I wonder how others use this setting btw - Argus,Peter?]]> ArieM WinDev Forum Tue, 14 Jul 2020 10:43:46 +0200 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793515#msg-793515 Re: [WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793515#msg-793515
This is what I initially tried, I changed the screen to the lowest available generic android tablet screen and worked from there, it ended up becoming a mess even with anchoring on higher resolution devices so I tried out layouts, but that made it worse on my two test devices]]> RobertLeo WinDev Forum Tue, 14 Jul 2020 03:42:34 +0200 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793510#msg-793510 Re: [WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793510#msg-793510
It's the smallest one possible, and I use anchoring to make my control use all the available space in ANY hardware used.]]> Argus WinDev Forum Mon, 13 Jul 2020 14:33:46 +0200 https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793508#msg-793508 Re: [WM24] Is there any way to add more platforms in layout https://www.wxforum.info/read.php?27131,793506,793508#msg-793508
You need to look at anchors to get the layout to fit different screen sizes.
