Change screen resolution on existing app

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 543

With the latest release you are able to set a custom resolution for your app - e.g. 1920x1024

I have some existing apps that I would like to change from 1136x640 (standard resolution before) to 1920x1024.

It seems like this is not supported? There is no way that I can see in the app settings. When creating new apps I have this option.

    Hi @JohnP,

    Could you please share a bit more about the 1920 x 1024 resolution option within your app?

    Which layout type app do you create within your PowerApps? Tablet Layout app or Phone Layout app?

    I have made a test on my side (create a Phone layout canvas app), and don't find the custom resolution option (e.g. 1920 x 1024) within the App settings.

    When I create a Tablet Layout canvas app on my side, I could set a custom resolution for my app within the App settings as below:5.JPG

    I afraid that the custom resolution option is not supported in Phone Layout canvas app within PowerApps currently. If you want to set a custom resolution (e.g. 1920 x 1024) within a Phone layout canvas app, I afraid that there is no way to achieve your needs in PowerApps currently.

    If you would like this feature to be added in PowerApps, please submit an idea to PowerApps Ideas Forum:

    As an alternative solution, you could consider take a try to convert a Phone Layout app into a Tablet layout app, then edit the converted Tablet layout app, within this Tablet layout app, you could set the custom resolution within App settings.

    More details about converting a Phone layout app into a Tablet layout app, please check the following blog:

    Best regards,

    Kris

    Hi @v-xida-msft

     

    Indeed it seems that the app was originally created with a phone layout.

    I will try to follow the second blog post and convert it to a tablet format.

     

    Thanks 🙂
