Suggestions to get the BTA Design Menu to look decent on iPad?

The BTA design menu is a good plugin and allows for making some really nice iPhone menus. I know it doesn't fully support iPad, but I know some have gotten it to work or at least gotten it to look ok on the iPad. Any suggestions would help. Thanks!

For me I found it worked best going through each item and messing with the numbers. Then I check out the results and reiterate until I'm happy with how it looks. There's a lot of values you can change, and each gives you a different result. One of my apps was running it but it's been a while :) https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cog-fling/id498070212?mt=8

I spent quite a bit of time "playing" with the numbers and was able to get a result I'm happy with. I noticed on a large device that the "touch" area can be MUCH larger than the image and sometimes it doesn't even lineup with the image icon. It took me a while to figure this out because I had images (buttons) that didn't go to the correct screen. It turned out that the image alignment was way off from the actual row. I found that working with the Large Device > Row Height (number) is what you need to adjust to resolve this issue. The other problem I found on large device is the row stretches across the entire screen even though the image is much smaller. It's not really a problem, but a use might not know why the app changes screens when they touched a blank area.
