I have a Windows 8.1 app that is using a split view page, and when the app is in a 1366 x 768 the back button and title bar are fine. But when displayed on a resolution of 1920 x 1080 and a 23" monitor the button and title move moves. I've uploaded a screen shot of the button moved on a 23" monitor. I'm not sure how to fix this. I've been using Blend to view the page in different resolution.

I am designing a front end for home automation.
I have 6 buttons on the front screen, each launching another application.
When a button is clicked I want my app to be say a 100px bar across the top of the screen (and reduce the available screen size reported to the launched app) and be always on top. The 100px bar will simply display a home and or back button so the main application can take focus again.
How can I accomplish this?
This might be a silly question, but why in the world can't I see the the following button that I simply dragged and dropped to the view from the interface builder?
I am using Simulator iPhone Retina (3.5 inch) / iOS 7. When I try to scroll to the bottom, the scrolling ends and I cannot see the button that I placed at the bottom. Why is that? Thanks.
EDIT: I didn't do anything fancy. I simply created a new single view app, and then dragged the button to the bottom of the view on storyboard and then clicked run.
Storyboard simulate size of 4 inch display. When you run it on 3.5 inch display, content at the bottom of the screen will be clipped.
Just add constraints to attach button to bottom of the screen.

I am using Worklight Consumer Edition 5.0.6.1 with latest interim fix and have the following questions regarding splash screen:
(1) When my app is running on iPad simulator (iOS 7), there is a black space at the top of the splash screen. Please see the screenshot below.
[There is no such problem when running on iPhone (iOS 7)]
(2) I have turned on "AutoHideSplashScreen" as "true" in config.xml for iOS. And there is logic inside my js to hide the splash screen. However, I discover that before the logic inside my js is executed, the splash screen was hidden already.
[There is no such problem for Android]
Do you have any idea? Thanks.
===========================================================================
EDIT: For the iPad splash screen problem, I have done the following tests in iOS Simulator (iOS 7.0.3). Please note that you need to manually delete the app after a trial, clean the project and build again or otherwise the change sometimes will not be effective.
Trial 1: Specify launch image for 768 x 1004 (iOS 6.1 and Prior) and 768 x 1024 (iOS 7):
Result: At the beginning, it takes the image for iOS7 (no black space at the top). After 1 second, it takes the image for iOS 6.1 and Prior (there is a black space at the top). So, the splash screen was "flashed" and the black space suddenly appear for this transition.
Trial 2: Specify launch image for 768 x 1004 (iOS 6.1 and Prior) and does not specify 768 x 1024 (iOS 7):
Result: There is black space at the top always in launch screen.
Trial 3: Does not specify launch image for 768 x 1004 (iOS 6.1 and Prior) and specify 768 x 1024 (iOS 7):
Result: There is whole black screen for around 1 second. And afterwards, the launch screen shows normally without black space at the top.
So, it seems that the launch screen always loads in the following sequence:
iOS 7 --> iOS 6.1 and Prior --> Start the app
Try to put your own Splash Screen image, with the correct sizes recommended by Apple: https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/mobilehig/LaunchImages.html
It seems the default Worklight splash screen does not have a matching size.
In XCode, in the General settings for your project, scroll until you see the list of Launch Images. You should see in the right column some images with the words "No image selected". Make sure there is a match for each for those images.
Re 2:
There is no point in comparing to Android...
Worklight utilizes its own splash image mechanism, so the AutoHideSplashScreen flag is of no use; you cannot control when to hide the splash image, at this time.
Re 1:
Will be investigated.
I'm teaching myself Android (using a book) and I've downloaded Tea Vui Huang's Droid X skin for the using with the Android SDK in Eclipse. When I run the emulator, the top of the window showing the Droid X's screen runs off the top of my laptop screen. Is there anyway to make the skin smaller? This happens with the WVGA854 skin that comes with Android, too. Is this just the fact that the real Droid X screen is 854 pixels high, and my laptop is 768 high, and there's no way to "shrink" the Droid X emulator display?
There is a Windows trick that lets you move windows who's control bar has moved off screen. I thought I could use it to slide the Window up and down so I could sequentially see the top and bottom, e.g. to access the app-tray button at the bottom of the screen. Windows won't let me do this...once I start this trick, it won't let me leave the top of the window off-screen.
Any advice appreciated. Thanks.
You need to run it with -scale command line option.
