   Hello !

   I just test my game on ipad3 and I can't fix the problem of resolution.

   More precisely I want test my game directly in air on windows wihout upload to ipad..

   My actual code is :

   		[SWF(width='1024', height='768', backgroundColor='#FFFFFF', frameRate='60')]
   		public function Main():void
   		{
   			stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
   			stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
   			//...
   			var screenWidth:int  = stage.stageWidth;
   			var screenHeight:int = stage.stageHeight;
   			var viewPort:Rectangle = new Rectangle(0, 0, screenWidth, screenHeight);
    
   			starling = new Starling(MainView, stage, viewPort);
   			trace(screenWidth, screenHeight); // 1024, 768
   			var isPad:Boolean = (screenWidth == 768 || screenWidth == 1536);
   			starling.stage.stageWidth  = isPad ? 384 : 320;
   			starling.stage.stageHeight = isPad ? 512 : 480;
   			trace(Starling.contentScaleFactor); //3.2   
                           //...

   So the contentScaleFactor on my pc should be 2 or 1 but 3.2 ?? How do you manage it ?

   Thanks by advance,

   Hey there,
   for iPad only apps its best to work with 1024x768 resolution for stageWidth and stageHeight. The contentScale factor will then be picked up correctly for iPad 3 which is double the resolution. Also on your desktop you will get correct 1x contentScalefactor that way.

   @dxmo hi, I also heard that it's better to keep starling viewport at 1024x768 when working on iPad apps only. But what if my app runs on all devices all iphones, iPads and all android phones and tablets. Currently my app scales viewport to 2048x1536 and uses x3 assets on ipad 3. Is it a good practice??

   @andrius that should work just fine, though i'd probably not be entirely happy to work with coordinate system that is 1/3 of the actual device resolution. I think it depends on the app itself though, but in my experience, layouting can be sometimes tricky to get right with different resolutions (specially if you're looking for pixel perfection). I myself am curious as to how people go about this.
