DlangUI provides "layouts" similar to Android ones, which should 
reflow and resize widgets for different screen sizes.
As well, app may load layouts from DML markup file - different 
for different screen size (as it's done in Android).

To simulate bigger screen, it's possible just to place controls 
inside ScrollWidget - and you would be able to move it with 
scrollbars.
