Description

When the iPad Simulator is run, apps are cut off at the top and the simulator cannot be resized. This is not a regression. This also affects regular Xcode projects. See screenshots. -Note: This may be related to Retina support.- Steps to Reproduce: 1. Run app in iPad Simulator on Mountain Lion. Actual Result: Simulator is improperly sized, the top of the app is cut off, and the simulator cannot be resized to correct the display. Expected Result: App is entirely visible in iPad Simulator.

    The workaround is to manually scale the emulator to 50% or 75%, as the default scale is 100%. 75% would be consistent with previous behavior. iOS Simulator > Window > Scale (e.g., command + 1, command + 2, command + 3). Can we set these when the emulator is launched?

    This is the default behavior of Xcode to bring up the iPad Simulator with maximum scale (i.e 100%) and adding the a new argument in our build scripts to manually control the size of the window of the Simulator seems like lot of work for no added advantage, when this can be done manually from the simulator itself(as described above). Marking this bug as won't fix.

    It is not an acceptable workflow to manually resize the iPad simulator every time it is launched. As per discussion, it is desirable to have this argument and a corresponding Titanium Studio run configuration setting.

    Will revisit this issue post 3.0 release.

    I cannot reproduce with Titanium SDK master (6.1.0) using an iPad Air or iPad Air 2 simulator.

    Closing ticket as the issue cannot be reproduced and with reference to the previous comments.
