In order to make any program work for all resolutions, then don't do anything regarding resolutions. 100x100 is 100x100 in ANY resolution. > say I want to enable the app for > the four most > commonly used resolutions, 800 x 600, 1024 x 768, 1152 x 864, > and 1280 x 768. A programmer doesn't have to do anything to "enable" an application for any resolution. Unless you desire to "scale" the application so it "looks" the same at any resolution, which is a silly thing to do, is offensive to the user and contradicts 99.9% of /your/ software experience, don't fiddle with anything! :) The common issue with resolution usually has to do with database forms or views and programmers that want to have those views scale from one users resolution to the next. Even this is a silly thing to do by default. Let the user gain the ADVANTAGES he desires by running in the resolution he desires. A programmer steps out-of-line when he scales his application up so when the user increases his resolution the he gains nothing because the application adjusts and is just as big as it was at the lower resolution. Maybe I'm misunderstanding your problem, if so clarify away. But I'd sure like to know what other piece of software you've encountered that's lead you to believe this is something to worry about.
