Hello,

Since I've installer LV 9.6 final, when I compile my app on the simulator or on a real device, it is smaller than usual.

Here an exemple, with a new stack, at same pixel size, which represent the real size (320x568) and at right the size my app on the ios screen (a border represent the real size).
The first value is the screenrect, the second the rect of the stack and the third the rect of the cd.

Why the screenrect is different with my app ?!

I checked if some graphics, buttons, groups,... was outside the app rect, but nothing is outside.

Any ideas ? Thanks !

Note the script for the two stack is only :

Code: Select all

on preopenstack
  set the fullscreenmode of this stack to "showAll" //(edited)
end preopenstack

Code: Select all

on preopenstack
  set the fullscreenmode of this stack to "show all"
end preopenstack

It should be

Code: Select all

on preopenstack
  set the fullscreenmode of this stack to "showAll"
end preopenstack

no space.

Thanks,
but it's already the case in the script of the stacks. (it's just a typo here).

To be clear : in my "old" app, I've put an "exit to top" just after the "set the fullscreenmode".

I don't understand why the screenrect is not the good one...

A similar question was raised recently, and while I have no idea or way of testing, it was solved for the other user here:

Every device has a different screenrect. Fullscreenmode fits your stack into the available space. If the ratio of the screen is not the same as the ratio of the card, you get a smaller stack (to make it fit) and blank areas around the edges when you use showAll or noBorder.

You could use other fullscreenmodes. Some of those will use the whole area of the screen but will distort the stack by stretching it or cropping it.

It was with the same device.
I compile my app for "years" for my iPhone SE and with LC 9.6 the screenrect change (not on android) !
But if I compile a new stack (same size and settings than my app) it's ok.

Maybe a bug related to "old" stacks.

That's very strange, I have no explanation.

I found why.
I use an info.plist to personalize some settings in the standalone (like French localizations for the "Usagedescriptions" and to add an bundletype).
If I compile the standalone without these info.plist, all is good !

So I need to actualize the plist with an new one.
