testing in the ios simulator

Hello Everyone,

New to LiveCode so I am learning the ropes. I need assistance with running my test program within the ios simulator. I would like to run my app using the iphone5s simulator but the only simulators that will run within livecode are the iPad simulator and the iPhone 4s simulator. If I open xcode, I can run a simple test app within xcode using all of the simulators that are installed (iphone4 to 6) without issue.

When the 4s simulator launches from LiveCode, my app runs but the resolution if off. If I change "Devices" within ios simulator when the app is running, the simulator resets to a 5s but the app is no longer installed so it cant be ran.

How do I get LiveCode to run on a 5s instead of the 4s?
Thanks

Hi Vetie,

Each simulator is its own instance so you will need to launch the simulator, change the device and then re-deploy to the simulator (keeping it open). This should then launch your app on the correct simulator.

Kind Regards,
