Corona SDK: iPhone 5 adjustment

Question

I am using the following config.lua file when creating my mobile application.

The screen will not adjust to iPhone5 when building to device. It will, however, adjust when running on the simulator that corona provides.

Can you tell me if the problem lies in this file, or if it depends on some other implementation issue.

Thanks!

Answer 1

Solved it!.

Apperently, and this is not clear at all in my opinion, one needs to add (To the application's root) a file called "Default-568h@2x.png" which tells the device to go iPhone5 mode!

This file should be a png with dimensions 640x1136

Under "Supporting tall apps"

Answer 2

If you are building for landscape mode like

orientation = {
    default = "landscapeLeft",
    content = "landscapeLeft",
    supported = { "landscapeRight", "landscapeLeft"}
},

Use "Default-568h@2x.png" with dimensions 1136x640, otherwise you will have problems.
