which iPhone...

[John Dixon]

Now I am a little confused ...

xCode 6.0, OSX 10.9.5, LC 7.0, iOS 8 simulator

Let me be a little pedantic here in my explanation. I have prepared a stack at a size of 320 x 480... It has one button with the following script...

on mouseUp
   answer the screenRect of this stack
end mouseUp

If I choose Hardware > Devices > iPhone 4s running in the simulator returns 0,0,320,480 
If I choose Hardware > Devices > iPhone 5s running in the simulator returns 0,0,320,568

but...

If I choose Hardware > Devices > iPhone 6 running in the simulator returns 0,0,320,568

It is at this point that I expected to see 0,0,375,667... 
I am more than a little confused!
