Force iPad retina simulator to fit on MacBook Air Screen

On my MB Air the iPad (retina) simulator, even at it's smallest size (50% scale) does not fit on the screen, requiring awkard scrolling. Does anyone know of a property that can be edited or something to make it even smaller than 50%?

You can use the cmd key modifiers to change the size:

  • Cmd+1 - original
  • Cmd+2 - smaller
  • Cmd+3 - smallest (this works best for me on my Macbook Air 11)

Unfortunately not, from what I've found. This link from a similar question explains,

it seems reasonable for the accurate rendering profiling that it maintains 1-to-1 pixel ratio, otherwise it would have to sub-sample the pixels, causing the profiling to be incorrect.

I use a 13" MB, so I understand that it's difficult to fit the iPad simulator on the screen.
