Relative Scaling and Positioning.

Question

Say I have a control, and I added other controls (in this case a Canvas) and I also have other controls within it (Images). Now when the screen is resized or the Canvas resize, the images' size and position stayed the same (see image below). Edit: I used C++ and XAML.

A natural question then arise. Is there a way to scale/position child controls base on parent controls?

Answer 1

Yes, you can do this.

How will depend on which language (VB.Net? C++? JavaScript?) and UI (HTML? Xaml? DirectX?) you are using. Let us know which and we can get you to the right forum.

Answer 2

I used c++. UI is XAML.

Answer 3

Fixed everything by wrapping my Primitive Controls (there's a lot of tiers of Controls) with ViewBox, setting Stretch="Uniform".
