The PDA Module for Pocket PC includes two Pocket PC templates.
The Pocket PC Portrait Screen template uses 28-point fonts, and the overall size of the user interface is 480 x 600 pixels. When you build a PDA VI into a Pocket PC PDA application, LabVIEW reduces the user interface by a scale factor of two, so fonts appear as 14-point type, and the user interface is 240 x 300 pixels on the Pocket PC target.
The Pocket PC Landscape Screen template uses 28-point fonts, and the overall size of the user interface is 640 x 480 pixels. When you build a PDA VI into a Pocket PC PDA application, LabVIEW reduces the user interface by a scale factor of two, so fonts appear as 14-point type, and the user interface is 320 x 220 pixels on the Pocket PC target.
