Installing Android sdk in Windows 8

If you're having the java.exe not found problem while installing android-sdk (failed to find java version for 'C:\windows\system32\java.exe': The system cannot find the specified file.", you might want to check out the following steps.

Firstly you must install JDK to your windows and it's a must as the android-sdk depends on the JDK.

Now download and install the android sdk from the location below.
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html

If you've installed JDK, you may still facing the same problem as java installation path might not already exist in the environment variables.

Go to the system settings by right click my computer->properties->advanced system settings->advanced tab->click environmental variable.

 Finally add JAVA_HOME varible and value as the path of your jdk installation files.


Here is where the Android SDK is located in the Windows 8.
C:\Users\%profile%\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk

Optimising Unity new UI System

UI/Sprite textures aren't packed into a texture atlas by default. A tag is needed to group them. Read the documentation / tutorial on the sprite packer. Overlapping text/graphic boundaries with another text/graphic will create additional draw calls, even if the actual visual graphics do not overlap. Grids (other layouts too I presume) need minimum 1 pixel spacing between items, else items are considered overlapping and will create additional draw calls. Images with alpha 0 are still rendered. They are rendered with alpha 0 even though they are not seen. Unity currently does not support non-rectangle shapes as Sprites, so using the TightSpitePacker policy will cause image artifacts. When UI objects are offscreen, they are still batched (rendered as well?). Possible solutions: Change parent to non-UI parent, as UI Camera will no longer detect it Change layer of panel so UI Camera will no longer detect it Disable gameobject when off-screen ScrollRect performance tuning S

Step01 ( Hacking App.xaml.cs file) App.xaml.cs delivers the most important start point while rendering a particular page in Metro UI application. I added gamePage and mainPage as  a public variables as they become accessible from other classes to for page nagivations. Here is the source code for to see what it looks like for the final App.xaml.cs file. sealed partial class App : Application     {         public ContentManager Content { get; set; }         public GameServiceContainer Services { get; set; }         public GamePage gamePage;         public MainPage mainPage;         public Frame RootFrame { get; set; }         /// <summary>         /// Initializes
