Our silvelright application is working greatly in 21 inch monitor. But when I try to view it in computers, other than 21 inch screen, the layout is disturbed(ie controls are overlapping and some controls are truncated).
1.Could any one please suggest the solutions for this and post resources/links that gives info on building silverlight apps for different screen size.
2.what are the things to be considered before starting the app for consisten layout in different environment.
Thank You

Silverlay
Most common things to do in this situation is redo your UI.
2. The best way to get a consistent layout is to test it at various sizes. When designing an app set the app to expand to the size of the browser. This way when testing you can re-size the browser to see how the app will look at different resolutions. If you re-size the browser horizontally to half of the 21 inch screen you'll get a feel for what the app will look like at half the resolution.
