Okay, so I have an app with a system of views made for a 3.5 inch screen. Something about the autosizing four the four inch screen makes views load fine for the top 7/8 of the screen, but the bottom 1/8 loads with lag. Any suggestions?
It was a problem with the animation I used to load the .xib files. It was outdated and slowed the view loading process down.

Hi I have developed a VS2010 application in Windows 7. I am also using InstallShield Premier to create an Setup.exe/MSI as usual.
The problem is that my splash screen is being cropped on the right hand side when I install on to a laptop which has a screen resolution of 1366 x 768.
(On a desktop of 1900 x 1080 it is fine, both the forms are visible).
My main form is of size 1330 x 848 and appears ok albeit snug.
The Splash screen form is only of size 562 x 398 so this should in theory fit well easy but this form is being cropped by say 25% on the right. So only 75% of the Splash screen is visible missing out the "Skip" button on the right.
This form does have a progress bar using a timer and a centre logo, can't think why this would have any bearing.
I am aware if the Form Autuosize attribute, Autuosize to True and have tried looking in the Installshield parameters to no avail.
I have recently added a background (and stretch to fill) to both Forms which may have some bearing on the matter but doubt it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks in advance.
have you set your splash screen form startposition to centerscreen in properties window? maybe you mess with it and it now starts at the right side.
since you created it in a higher resolution display and run it in a lower resolution will likely cropped. use the autosize from the properties window.
I'm going crazy over xcodes auto layout!! Really need som help now. I made an app with 8 buttons (only to be viewed in lanscape) that I want to look good (or ok) on iPhone 4, 5 and 6/6+.
I want the title and the buttons to be centered horizontally on all devices. I would be nice if the size increased when viewed on iphone 6/6+ but its not necessary. I tried to put the buttons in a seperate view but I only managed to get it to look good on 4 and 5 that way.
(I'm using xcode 6.1)

Please help!
This seems like a lot, but I have found this to work. Create 1 large view that will hold all the buttons. You need to pin edges to the Superview (Editor > Pin). Add 8 views inside that view and evenly space with auto layout (using equal widths or pin to desired width). You should pin all 4 sides of all the smaller views to the larger view and it's neighbors. You can add a button inside each of the 8 views align horizontal/vertical in container (Editor > Align).
How can I stretch the height of buttons and images in Xcode 4.6.3 in Storyboard?
I have a simple navigation with some images and a few navigations buttons as per the images below. In the first image its displayed on iPhone 4 and on image 2 its on iPhone 5. As you can see the buttons are now looking a bit lost on the bigger display.
Can I stretch the buttons' height for the iPhone 5 in Storyboard? I have seen examples of using Autolayout but they all seem to do with orientation (switching from portrait to landscape).
Can what I need to do be done with Struts and Springs perhaps? I am unable to test at the moment as I only have access to Xcode once a week. Just want to have as much information for the next time I get to work on project.

that's actually really easy to awnser! Just use autosizing. Here is what you need to do:
Xcode 4.5: How do I fix my text views so they display properly in portrait and landscape mode on an iPad?
Just play around with the inner cross and see what happens. You need to set the autosizing for every button if you want to resize them all.
Have a good one,

So I'm still getting accustomed to the world of Auto Layout in iOS 6 and it's been a fun (or in plain English -- tough) migration coming over from strings & struts.
I have a UIImageView that's the background for a game I'm working on. Here's what a regular 3.5" Retina Display looks like in Interface Builder:
but if I change the "Size" pop-up in the Simulated Metrics field for the content view to "Retina 4 Full Screen", here's what I see:
And you can see the ugly black bar appearing along the bottom edge of the simulated iPhone 5 screen. This same ugly black bar makes it over to the compiled app running in the iPhone 5 simulator.
Are there any attributes or constraints I can apply via Interface Builder to get the UIImageView's frame to size correctly for the appropriate iPhone device screen size?
Or do I have to enter in constraints via code? (ugh)
I've watched the three WWDC videos and if the engineers covered the topic of sizing a view to fit a parent, they must have glossed over it really fast because I've haven't yet found or heard a decent method to get both UIImageView and NSImageView to size correctly to their parent views under both the iOS and MacOS side.
From what you're showing here, I think that what you want to do is drag the image to meet the bottom of the superview so that it takes up all of the space you want. On the bottom right in the IB view you will see a small, grey pill-shaped set of 3 buttons. Click the center one (once you have your imageView selected). It's the one that looks a little like this: |--|. It will bring up a list of constraints. Once you have done that, select "Bottom Space to Superview". You should then be able to switch between phones and have the image resize automatically.
AFAIK Mac OSX has unified screen space. So it's unclear to me what happens when you have multiple displays with different backing scale factor. Will retina display go into low-res mode (so -[NSScreen backingScaleFactor] returns the lowest value among all attached displays)? If no, how an app will be rendered if it's placed so part of it appears on display with retina and another part appears on display without retina?
I'm working with some HiDPI issues at the moment, and I have my not retina MBP and thunder display with turned on HiDPI mode on it.
On connected display, it has 2.0 backing scale factor, and when I drag the window to MBP display (which has usual DPI), next is happening:
When the major part of window is on HiDPI, it renders all the window with backing scale factor 2.0.
When the major part moves to non HiDPI display, it rerenders all graphics with backing scale factor equal 1.0, and shows new rendered window on both displays.
Hope it will help you)
