If your app is mainly code layout interface, then you'll have to just change your code to work with arbitrary widths and heights, instead of a fixed width and height. If instead your app is basically one graphical scene, like say Angry Birds, or a highly graphical scene, you could take the approach I use.

Read my reply to this message:

In that message I describe things in Portrait, because I was answering a question about portrait, but it all works out too if you substitute landscape numbers.

Listen to Colin he knows his stuff, I used to do code scaling and it becomes tiresome with all the different screens and there is so much to consider. Now I do no scaling but layout my app to work with everything from the narrow Android Phones to the big box of the iPad and one app one layout for over 1000 different devices.

Thanks for the suggestion some months ago Colin.

Glad it's working for you too! Just so you know, if you ever do Starling work you will run into troubles. Starling is hard coded to only work correctly for no_scale, and you get less troubles with top_left alignment too. I had to modify Starling slightly to make it work correctly.
