Resolution and Presentation settings

The Android window-related Player Settings are important because Chrome OS has a desktop windowing user interface. You can use these settings to allow your application to start full-screen or in a window, determine the starting and minimum sizes of the window, and whether it is resizable or not.

- either landscape or portrait - is allowed via auto-rotation.

For optimum performance, allow portrait orientation or landscape orientation, but not both. To avoid several known issues with app rotation and windowing, enable the Resizable Window setting. This setting ensures that windowed applications on Chrome OS can be resized when they aren’t in full-screen mode.

Note: Set your application’s Minimum API Level (menu:File > Build Settings > Player Settings > Other Settings) to at least 24 for windows settings to take effect.
