I hope to create an iphone window based app for retina screen?
But I found that the size of window in mainwindow.xib is fixed.
How to adjust it or there is any to tell interface builder create window for retina pixel size?
Welcome any comment
Thanks

There’s no need to do anything in terms of the various components you layout in Interface Builder, as it’s based around points, not pixels – and as all the iPhone screens sizes are the same in points no action is required.
In terms of any images you’re loading, you will need to supply higher resolution (twice the pixel size) versions, but as long as these are named “[original name]@2x.[extension]” they’ll simply work automatically.
For more information on the image naming, see the “Specifying High-Resolution Images in iOS” section of the Resource Programming Guide and if you want to delve a little deeper, there’s a discussion on “Points Versus Pixels” within the Drawing and Printing Guide for iOS.
UPDATE – As of the iPhone 5, the iPhone screens are no longer all the same point size. 🙂
