Preview of Resolution Independent Control library for RevMobile

[Scott Morrow]

I'm glad that this is staying on list for now as I'm working through trying to create a scalable app rather than ones with different fixed layouts.

Besides scaling the rect of objects, what other properties will likely need consideration?
A few that I'm puzzling over at the moment…

textSize
margins
lineSize
roundRadius

GraphicEffects
dropShadow: probably not all properties… spread, size, distance (opacity?)
innerShadow
outerGlow
innerGlow

Gradient

So what about the framework mainstack has a density property. On mobile this is worked out during preOpenStack and on desktop it would default to mdpi but be settable so  you can use whatever you want. This is independent of stack size and the setprop handler would cause the controls on the current card to resize.
