Text and widgets off screen on Android

[gregoryjcoates]

In the latest 2.7.1 release, how can I deal with text and widgets going off the screen? My best guess is it is a scale issue, but I cannot find a way to get fyne to change scaling on android.

I have two issues. Text entries going past the width, along with their descriptions. And the submit for a form going down into the on screen back button.

Nothing should go off screen - unless its minimum size is larger than the size of the window/screen.

You'll need to provide more info, perhaps a screenshot, as what you have described doesn't sound like a bug in any standard layouts.

It is only present when I run it on android as if the actual window is larger than the phone screen.

And it's just a form with text and text entry, which is then displayed inside an AppTab container.

My question though is how can I deal with the issue, because as far as I can tell, scale, window size, and a ton of other settings just get ignored on android.

Yes, if your content is larger than available space then it won't fit.

Without specifics provided it is hard to know what to suggest. There are many solutions - text wrapping, adding a scroll container or other options to allow large content to fit in a smaller space.

As requested before a screenshot would tell a thousand words.

Well I came back to this after a long while and some new tinkering lead me to the issue.

The Form's default orientation of horizontal was causing it to be wider than my s24 ultra's screen, and oddly was making it all more center aligned. Changing the orientation to vertical made everything properly left aligned and fit into the screen width correct.
