For me, none of the above. All my apps are dialog-based, and all my
dialogs size and position their controls based on the dimensions of
the dialog box. The framework I put together for myself includes
several functions that help. And I've developed some stock pieces that
size themselves and can be placed. So I usually don't need to position
many controls per dialog. I sometimes take a little longer to build a
new dialog. But I _rarely_ need to worry about screen size or shape. I
develop primarily for Windows CE and need to support several different
screen sizes and shapes, so this approach is _very_ helpful for me.
