So how can I open a display of native size and determine what that size is?

What about

Code: Select all

w = GetAttribute(#DISPLAY, 0, #ATTRHOSTWIDTH)
h = GetAttribute(#DISPLAY, 0, #ATTRHOSTHEIGHT)
ChangeDisplaySize(w, h)
Alternatively, you could also create a BGPic of that size and show it using DisplayBGPic().

That works fine on computer, but doesn't seem to work on Android. Isn't ChangeDisplay on the list of functions that don't work with Droid?

Looking at the source code, ChangeDisplaySize() should work on Android. What behaviour do you get? Does it fail with an error message?

An alternative could be to use a BGPic:

Code: Select all

w = GetAttribute(#DISPLAY, 0, #ATTRHOSTWIDTH)
h = GetAttribute(#DISPLAY, 0, #ATTRHOSTHEIGHT)
CreateBGPic(1, w, h)
DisplayBGPic(1)

I figured it out -- it actually did work just the title was covering up the textout with the screen dimedndions in it.
