I'm making an app using Construct 2 for Windows Phone 8 and I'm using the screen resolution guidelines found here. I'm using the WXGA screen, so a 768 x 1280 resolution. That is what I have set my layout size to in Construct.

However, when I deploy my app to my device (720 screen) or a WXGA emulator, it seems that the app gets scaled down and there is a black area under my app, like my app isn't using the full screen size. Does anyone have any idea why this is?

  • For this kind of questions, you should *really* provide screenshots, besides from your code. (And you should always post some code, as it's obviously the culprit of your problem). – Claus Jørgensen Jul 03 '13 at 21:52

You said it yourself. Your phone is 720p (16:9), but you're using a WXGA (15:9) resolution.

As described on your link, Multi-resolution apps for Windows Phone 8, 720p is ~80 pixels taller.

Also, FYI:

  • Lumia 920: WXGA
  • Samsung ATIV S and ATIV Odyssey: 720p
  • HTC 8X: 720p
