I just finished up my storyboard based iPhone app (I’m developing on an iPhone 5). Just before submitting it to the Appstore, I thought of making sure everything looks fine on an iPhone 4. So I launch my app in the simulator with iPhone 4.
And what I see baffles me. Basically every single view object, particularly textview, are stacked on top of each other. Basically everything scrollable’s messed up. In some textviews even, the initial scroll position has been set to say 100px, which means that the textview’s showing the middle of the content in a textview and there’sno way to scroll to top.
Every time I make an ajustments to the storyboard view to fit the iPhone 4, the view on iPhone 5 instead looks weird. Most of the time, the stacked objects on iPhone 4 simulator can’t even be unstacked.
Am I the only one experiencing this? I cant find any post about it. Could it be that there’s something messed up with my simulator? Any setting I’ve missed? The only solution I can think of now is to have a seperate SB for iP4 and iP5, but I really would rather not go through the pain of doing that. Any comment or idea is greatly appreciated.
How it looks
You need to make sure that your autosizing struts and springs are set appropriately.
The views need to either dock to the top, or bottom and the views that you want to stretch should have the flexible vertical set.
