VGN Devices

[AK]

How can i run an application, which is developed in CF 1.0 and VS 2003 for
QVGA devices that has resolution 96 dpi, on VGN device (Pocket PC 2003) that
has resolution 192 dpi using CF 2.0 and VS 2005?

If the application is compiled in VS 2003, application looks ok. But when i
compile it using VS 2005 images looks smaller, images and datagrids are not
going though the emulation layer.

Please help. Thanks.

Under CF v2 forms have the AutoScaleMode property that should be set to Dpi.

I had it as Dpi. Screen and controls are ok. But images are smaller and
width of the columns in the datagrid are half of the atual size.
If i change the entry in project file from
<PlatformFamilyName>PocketPC<PlatformFamilyName> to
<PlatformFamilyName>WindowsCE<PlatformFamilyName>,
then everything is ok. Since we have to support Pocket PC 2003, i am not
sure whether i can do this or not.

Thanks

You have to handle the size of the images yourself. So effectively have to
versions of the same image if you are to target 192dpi and 96dpi devices.
