Running Android on Windows 8

Post by Happyman21 »

I recently installed Android on my Windows 8 machine. I am running it in virtualbox fine, but when I force apps into landscape mode, most of them go off the viewing screen and you can not interact with the stuff off screen. I have been searching over and over and over, and I can not find any information on how to zoom in or out, or how to tab down, or page down to see whats below the visible area. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Android isn't supported by VirtualBox so answers may be hard to come by.

You can change between landscape and portrait mode at startup.
