Is the stack opening in the iPad simulator or the iPhone simulator.
I haven't go it open right now, but I think there is a menu item in
the Simulator to change this.

I have to reduce an image to 570 x 348 to show the whole image in the iPad simulator.At that size it fills the whole iPad window with no border.  If I try to increase the image it is cut in width and height.If the ipad landscape view is suppose to be 1004 x 768 why can't it show an image this big? I am running it on a MacBook Pro, snow leopard, at 1152 X 720 monitor setting. Changing the monitor dimension doesn't make a difference in the result. Any ideas??

>> Just starting to look at Revmobile, I have an app which runs on desktop . I'd like to modify it to the ipad. I reduced the stack size to 1000,700 which should fit the ipad. I have an animated Gif on the first card with a dimension of 700,452. When I make a landscape iPad on the simulator only a portion of the image is shown. Now the simulation iPad app is not the actual size of the ipad. Would the image show up in the actual device? If not, what do I have to do to see what the ipad image would be?
