Tips for creating responsive interfaces in LiveCode

Post by golfhitgame » Mon Oct 20, 2025 8:11 am

Hi everyone,

I'm making a small application using LiveCode and want the interface to adjust itself on different screens. What experience do you have with:

Using groups and dynamic controls to reuse the interface?

Optimizing layouts with geometry and rect to avoid fixed coordinates?

I also tried using lock screen/unlock screen when changing many properties to reduce flickering; it was quite effective.

I hope everyone can share other tips or experiences!

Thanks!
