How to support multiple resolutions in MonoTouch

Question

What is the approach to support different resolutions on MonoTouch. I just created a new XIB in the latest version of MonoTouch. When I run it, it is iPhone 4 resolution.

My simulator is iPhone5 and so I see black bars in top and bottom.

Answer 1

First off all you must provide default (launch) image for iPhone 5.

Possible solutions

• Use the auto-resizing capabilities of iOS (View.AutoresizingMask)
• Detect iPhone 5 and load different xib like in universal apps. Read more about this great in tutorial Building MonoTouch Applications that run on both the iPad and iPhone Getting Started from Xamarin Developer Center!
