A AgeBlackItalia Member Licensed User Longtime User Apr 30, 2012 #1 Hi all I have an app that is quite small and will therefore be running in a portion of a large screen ( and the whole of a small screen) Problem I have is that on a large screen the area surrounding the app stays black - it doesn't show the phone background (see attached) My question : Is there any way or anything that I can change to let the rest of the phone show whilst my little app is running ?

It also has the source code you can download to see how it works. http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4android-getting-started-tutorials/16814-transparent-activity.html#post96047 Upvote 0

(adddition) It works on a phone but the emulator doesn't seem to want to handle the transparency :-( (Oh well - i can live with that) Last edited: Apr 30, 2012 Upvote 0
