I needed a particular table to draw one size for the 3.5" iphone screens, and another size for the newer 4" iphone 5 screens. Found a super simple way, and thought I would share it. I just enter it in the plugins .m file where I needed to differentiate between the two. ------------------------------------------------------------------ Towards the top of the .m file, after the framework imports, add this line: ------------------------------------------------------------------ #define IsIphone5 ( fabs( ( double )[ [ UIScreen mainScreen ] bounds ].size.height - ( double )568 ) < DBL_EPSILON ) ------------------------------------------------------------------ Then, in the same .m file, wherever you need to run different code based on the iphone size, add this: ------------------------------------------------------------------ if(IsIphone5) { //your stuff } else { //your stuff } May be basic stuff for some of the more advanced coders, but I never had to use it before until now, and was surprised at how easy it was with just a couple lines of code.

Pretty spiffy. A bit less complicated than what I'm using now. Thanks! :) Cheers! -- Smug

Yeah, I seen some more complex codes out there, but was impressed at how short this one was

Thanks! I had just sprinkled a couple of checks in some screens today. This is much cleaner.

I see in the Video Playlist plugin, a similar directive: #define IS_IPHONE5 (([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height-568)?NO:YES) --------------------------------------- Then in Jake's JC_Launch_Screen, I see this: if ( UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone ) { CGSize result = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size; if (result == 480) { // iPhone 3 & 4 stuff for a 3.5" screen } if (result == 568 { // iPhone 5 stuff for a 4" screen } } // ENDIF for all iPhone and iPod touch if ( UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad ) { // iPad stuff } // ENDIF for all iPad

Another way to check if you are running on an iPad if ( [(NSString*) [UIDevice currentDevice].model isEqualToString:@"iPad"] ) { // Do iPad things } ---------------------- Also, Buzztouch has a built-in method by which to check if running on an iPad: (it queries the UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM method to set an appDelegate property) if ( [self.rootDevice isIPad] ) { // Do iPad things } else { // Do iPhone things }

Cool stuff :)

Wait until the AppleTV emerges as an app platform, that will turn our world into a tizzy! :-)

It already is if yours is jailbroken ;) I used to use a jailbroken apple TV, but now run XMBC on other devices for my entire home network. The appletv hardware just couldn't handle my XBMC setup... not enough processing power.

Would be nice if BT made the determination and added to appDelegate so we could access in any screen. Somethin like: [self.rootDevice isiPhone5] ;) Can't always count on [self.rootDevice deviceHeight] unless the iPhone app does not allow rotation.

Hey Mustang .. I understand your desire to know if the device height based on it's rotation. Did you figure out a way, or need me to jimmy up a code block? :-) I am knee-deep on making the Control Panel for that new plugin ... don't get me distracted, guys!

Nice Ninja!! Thanks a lot. Sweet and simple

Niraj Stay on that Control Panel for your new plugin! Besides my app will be Portrait only ;)
