Question

I’m trying to display an Image in the Application method (not in the controller) didFinishLaunchingWithOptions (It’s actually a splash screen).
My code

if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
    splashView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 1024, 640)];

    splashView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"splashipad.jpg"];
} else {
    //doesn't matter for now
}

Actually the image is displayed but it starts not from the up left corner. It’s displayed in portrait mode even though the emulator is in landscape mode.

Even if I invert the 1024 with the 640 it want solve the problem.

Wanna to display the splash always in landscape mode.

Try the following. The Width & Height might be around the wrong way so just switch them around

#define HEIGHT 1024
#define WIDTH 640

( ... )

if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {

    UIInterfaceOrientation orientation = [[UIDevice currentDevice] orientation];
    if (orientation == UIDeviceOrientationPortrait) {
        splashView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, HEIGHT, WIDTH)];
    } else if (orientation == UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeLeft || orientation == UIDeviceOrientationLandscapeRight) {
        splashView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, WIDTH, HEIGHT)];
    }

    splashView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"splashipad.jpg"];
} else {
    //doesn't matter for now
}
