Ralph’s idea was good though, you could export snapshot from a card window that’s the real size. But yes, scaling up is what I’ve done as well.
One thing to be wary of is having complex splash screens. You will find that if you support every required size you could reach 30 MB of app space, before the app has even opened. These days I have a flat color that is the average of the title screen, then let it cut to the title screen. Flat color PNGs take up little space. > On Nov 8, 2016, at 6:40 PM, Alan <alanstenho...@hotmail.com> wrote: > > Thanks Ralph, Phil, Colin > > So the interim solution (until I upgrade my systems to get access to iPad Pro > Simulator) is to take a Retina screenshot and scale up (this is to satisfy > that AppStore requirements) and hope that's good enough...! :-) > > cheers > > Alan > > On 9 Nov 2016, at 4:03 am, <use-livecode-requ...@lists.runrev.com> > <use-livecode-requ...@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > >> From: "Ralph DiMola" <rdim...@evergreeninfo.net> >> Subject: RE: iPad Pro screenshots? >> >> I create all my screen shots in the IDE.
