Thanks, that did work as far as zooming, but... When you zoom, you don't have the ability to pan and though the font gets bigger, the columns in the grid do not scale, so the numbers get cut off. Could this be because I'm using the mx.datagrid? I haven't figured out the s.datagrid.

(Flex 3 -> 4.6) HI Rich.. 1) you’d have to have an event handler listen for the pinch gesture and then scale your grid based on how much you want it to scale/shrink http://paultrani.com/2011/02/touch-events-and-gestures-on-mobile/ ( look at pinch/zoom) 2) you there are a few methods to handle the DPI variation, we generally target the primary device and set our application dpi to that ( for exampl! e I’m building an app for a 7” android right now and have my DPI set to 166), there is quite a good article here on handling DPI http://opensource.adobe.com/wiki/display/flexsdk/DPI+Auto+Scaling+for+Density+Independent+Mobile+Apps Cheers Grant --- In flexcoders@yahoogroups.com , Richard Albrecht < Rich@... > wrote: > > Hi, > > First time writing to a group in many years.
