But when I loaded it to my new Motorola Zoom running 3.1 I get some unexpected results as far as screens looking good. 1. Main screen image is compressed and pushed to the left side on the tablet in Portrait view. Main screen does not rotate to landscape at all. 2. When I go to sub screens and bring up pictures. It looks ok in Portait view but in landscape I get a croped view of the picture. I'm missing something as far as settings for Tablets goes? It's buzztorch 1.4 for android built. Thanks Title Comments I put together an application that runs well on the Android phone.

Because of this, the layout views are not maximized for larger screens. There are some folks that adjusted the layout.xml files in the /res/layout folder for tables but it takes some work. When v1.5 for Android is done all will be better ;-) Comments buzztouch v1.4 was not setup for tablets. Because of this, the layout views are not maximized for larger screens.

David was very helpful and gave me pretty much all the direction I needed to resize the header image. Hope that helps until Android v1.5 Comments @gbakakos if you search the forum for a previous post of mine quote: main/header image file v1.4 location end quote.
