How to scale my app to new retina 4.5 1136x640 resolution?


How do I scale my app to new retina 4.5 resolution (1136x640)?

I have existing xibs and storyboard (non-xib) based applications, and can't find any information about how to auto-scale to new resolution.

Please, give me any links on developer.apple.com or themes on stackoverflow or any other help.

Thanks!


Solution

  • Apple has given the Auto Layout mechanism to allow current and future versions of apps to scale to any size (for both iOS and OSX). I would recommend you check out the Cocoa Auto Layout Guide as your first port of call.

    Apple has also shared a few developer talk videos from WWDC 2012 which explain the Auto layout mechanism in a tutorial screencast manner (valid developer account needed)
