I have created view using autolayout it works fine in all iPhone devices but it left some blank space at left, right, top and bottom on iPad.I tried to make another xib specially for iPad which is 768*1024 but still facing same problem.
here is the screenshot of iPad output.
The problem is that you forgot to make this a universal app. So it is running on the iPad in emulation mode as an iPhone app in a reduced frame.

I am trying to fill the screen with a TableView. I've tried pinning 4 edges but it broke when I view it in different devices (iPad Pro, iPhone SE, landscape and portrait orientation). The TableView is messed up for some reasons. It shouldn't be this hard to fill that in. Did I messed up some settings in my Xcode?
If you ran the application on a real device you'll find it as you expect it to be.
And if you opened another file then came back to storyboard you'll find the preview as expected too, I think it's a bug in the UI Builder.
Note: I'm using Xcode Version 8.3.2.
I am developing a iOS app with xamarin. If I debug it in a physical machine (iPad) or a iPad simulator, it only shows a white screen. But it works if I debug with iPhone simulator.
What is the cause of the issue?
Thanks.
Updates :
I found that it is due to the project only have an iPhone view. And it leads to another question - When I would like to change the width and height of content in iPad view, all views will change at the same time. Does it mean I need to create different storyboard for each screen size?
Thanks.
The white screen issue is related to the zoom level on your simulator. On the Simulator, look at the Window menu and it will be either Zoom or Scale. Try setting Scale to 50%.
I am developing an iPhone app in Xcode 7 which will only open in portrait mode. My question is do I need to provide the launch/splash/default screen also for landscape mode or providing it in the various portrait mode sizes will be sufficient?
I think adding only the portrait ones should work for you. Hope you are using xcassets for managing splash screens. There, You can select the orientations and devices which you want to support. Here is a screenshot.
NOTE: This is from Xcode 6.4. Hope it's something similar in Xcode 7.
Design the LaunchScreen.xib file to look as your desired splash screen. Set proper constraints to your design elements/views. And thats it! It will appear as expected on any orientation.
For example:
If you want your app logo to appear in the center on app launch as splash screen, set your logo in a image view at center, give constraints for horizontally centering, vertically centering and height and width constraints. Now run the app by keeping simulator in various orientations and your launch screen will appear same in all orientations.
I've started using Xcode auto layout for my projects.
Auto-layout works perfectly when I'm testing on ios8 devices, it the view scales as needed.
However, things get a little crazy with ios7.
When I test my app on an ios7 iPhone 5 simulator, the app doesn't scale-up to the larger screen,
but only shows the 3.5 inch view, leaving black bars on the top and bottom of the screen.
I am using a tableView controller.
How do I scale the tableViewController up so that it fits on a larger screen in ios7?
(Like I've said, my app fits perfectly in ios8, on all screen sizes, but not in ios7.
Also, it scales fine on an ios7 ipad.)
thanks.
The Xcode (6) IDE should give a warning about this, that may not be so clear:
"Applications using Launch Screen Files and targetting iOS 7.1 and earlier
need to also include a Launch Image in an Asset Catalog."
This means you need to have the proper Launch-Images for the "Retina 4" screen,
which is 640 × 1136 pixels, and it should be configured in the assets-catalog,
just like your Application-Icons ("AppIcon"), but under "LaunchImage" there.
Once you add this 4-inch-compatible Launch-Image to your application,
iOS-7 will assume you are properly supporting the "Retina 4" screen,
and will launch the application in 4-inch mode.
I have an iOS 5 + app I am getting ready for iOS 7.
I have a standard TabBar based app loading in viewcontrollers, one of which loads in a webView.
This webview has a landscape and portrait mode as the app can be rotated, this works fine on all devices except iPad running iOS 7.
The issue being the webview is always displayed as landscape on iPad on iOS 7 irrespective of the orientation, iOS 7 gets rid of the 2x button that you used to get with iPhone apps running on an iPad so it is faux full screen.
The app opens in portrait mode, if I rotate the iPad everything else rotates - all other views adjust and reposition - except the html in the webview - it is stuck on landscape.
This happens on device and simulator
The question I suppose is why? has anyone else had experience of this?
Many thanks
Try setting constraints on the UIWebView. In the storyboard, look for the menu icons on the bottom right, and select the one that looks like a tie fighter. Then select 'Add Missing Constraints' or 'Reset to Suggested Constraints'. then when your View changes (orientation), the space constraints will adjust.
