Question

I have simple 2D puzzle game earlier I created it extending view and everything goes fine unless I tested it on smaller device. My half of the game doesnt appear on device someone told me to use surface view I tried that also but of no use can anybody tell me whats the problem I placed various graphics object like this

bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.ring);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 45, 250, paint);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 135, 250, paint);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap, 225, 250, paint);

i.e. I used static values is this not the correct way or what I am doing wrong?

Answer 1

Get the screen’s height and width:

DisplayMetrics dm = new DisplayMetrics();
getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(dm);
int screenHeight = dm.heightPixels;
int screenWidth = dm.widthPixels;

Then scale everything using those values… You’ll probably need to specify all vertices of the bitmaps, so that it scales properly.
