App does not fit screen

Post by maik » Mon Nov 18, 2019 10:39 pm

Dear all,

I have written an application in LiveCode. The app was working normally but suddenly the app does not fully fit the screen on iPhone 6.
There are black bars on top and bottom of the app. I added already

Code: Select all

on preOpenStack
	set the fullScreenMode of this stack to "exactFit“ 
end preOpenStack
without success. Unfortunately I can not find the reason. Also the splash screen of the app does not show up anymore. Can you please help?

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Maik

I have experienced lots of problems with

preOpenStack


and now tend to put "that sort of thing" in an openStack session,
normally using set the lockScreen to true as well.

Dear Maik

It sounds like you need to reselect your splash screen images in the Standalone Application Settings. I'm not sure why they would have disappeared but they are paths to local files so maybe the folder containing them was moved?

If you reselect the splash screen images your app should appear correctly again, filling the screen as expected.

Kind regards

Dear Elanor,

Thanks for your help. This solved the problem :-). Probably the path was changed when I saved a backup.
A warning would be nice in this case.

Best regards,
Maik
