IOS Screen resizing /EXACT FIT not working as before

[J. Landman Gay]

Try fullscreenMode "showAll" or "noBorder". I generally use showAll. There will be black bars 
at the sides or top/bottom on some devices depending on which mode you choose but the advantage 
is that it retains the stack ratio. At least one dimension will always fit.

You can obscure the black bars by setting the backcolor of the stack to a matching or 
complimentary color. The unused areas will fill with that color instead of showing black.
