I’m trying to position a ground (platform) exactly at the bottom of the device screen, but its position changes when I change the screen aspect ratio, as you can see in these images below:
I’ve already tried changing .contentHeight to .actualContentHeight, but it didn’t go as expected. I’ve also changed the content scale in config.lua file, but the game got completely deformed. How can I fix it?

Thank you guys for your responses.
I fixed this problem in config.lua by calculating the device screen aspect ratio and then setting the content dimensions accordingly.
That’s what I have in config.lua:
local aspectRatio = display.pixelHeight / display.pixelWidth application = { content = { width = 320, height = 320\*aspectRatio, scale = "letterbox", fps = 60, }, }
This way the content dimensions properties I mentioned before are working as I expected them to.
