Ok i wasnt too sure where to post this but this is just a simple question.

Iv started coding a game and i am going to be using the interference for alot of work, problem is im on a netboook i believe my screens like 10 inches rofl iv had to custom set skins before for certain games, what im wondering is if i make a skin will it come out like half of the screen on a user using a bigger screen or would it auto adjust to their settings?

I'm pretty sure that is what auto-anchor is for.

You can just essentially use Childs and adjust the sizes of things accordingly at run-time.
It's what I do to prevent the hassles of players having different resolutions.

It's best to learn how anchors work instead of always relying on auto anchor all the time. Sometimes you don't want things to resize vertically, but you want them to resize horizontally. Case in point: An input for communication.

Take a look at Lummox JR's Making Skins in 4.0 tutorials.
