I have an app built for iPhone-only.

I would like to show it on the iPad, using the 2x/1x resize feature (like with normal iPhone apps that you can open on an iPad).

When I open my app on the iPad I get the small iPhone window centered in the middle and the 2x button in the bottom right - good.

However, it only displays the top left corner of my cards. Is there something in my stack script that I can tweak to make this view properly on the iPad?

Thanks.

Stack Script:

local sPlayerId

on preopenStack
if the environment is "mobile" then
iphoneUseDeviceResolution "true" -- For Retina True Display (doesn't work in openStack)
--Portrait , Portrait Upside Down , Landscape , Landscape Right are the 4 Parameters to be passed in the function iphoneSetAllowedOrientations
put "portrait,portrait upside down,landscape,landscape right" into theallowed
-- Function Call
set the acceleratedRendering of this stack to "true"
iphoneSetAllowedOrientations theallowed
mobileLockOrientation
else
exit preopenStack
put iphoneDeviceResolution() into tScreenResolution
go to card "Main Menu"
end if
end preOpenStack

Hi Tester2,

Your stack size is 640*960, probably
and when you run your app in iPad Retina it should display all of the card, again probably
At least, my quick test was that way.

You have two options:
* Create 3 substacks:
One for iPhone 3 & iPad
One for iPhone 4 & iPad Retina
One for iPhone 5
On preOpenStack determine the device and direct to the right substack.
You can use this script to determine the device.

* Write a resize script so that your stack adapts itself to the screen real-estate.
Choosing this path has another advantage, you don't constrain yourself to iPhone and force your app to run in compatibility mode in iPads.
You can choose iPod, iPhone and iPad in Standalone Application Settings, freely.

Hope it helps...

Best,
