AGK's documentation says about the CreateAdvert command that "advert will typically be a 320x50 banner". My question is:

Does this command always create a 320x50 banner, independently of the resolution, eg, is it always 320x50, whether you have a 1024x768 screen res, or a 1920x1080, or 720x1280, or whatever?

Or does the banner scale its resolution, the greater the screen resolution becomes?

And if it is the 2nd case, is there a way to know or measure the exact dimensions in pixels of the ad?

What I've realized is that banners are always smaller in a tablet.
I mean, when I run an app in a Samsung 8" in portrait mode, the advert I put at bottom of screen is half size of width of the screen.
I'm so sorry for not solving your doubt but only a experience sharing from my side hoping it's a kind of useful for you.

The advert size is not affected by the resolution, so it will be 320x50 pixels even if the resolution is 1024x768 or 1280x800.
