Hi guys, a small feature was accidentally omitted from the Buzz Carousel plugin. Some may have noticed that the images aren't very big on the iPad. I have submitted an update to Susan so it should be added soon. For those of you who have already integrated it into your source code you can make the following changes. remove the methods //viewForItemAtIndex with reflection... (lines 385 - 414) and //carouselItemWidth... (lines 417 - 428) replace them with //viewForItemAtIndex with reflection... -(UIView*)carousel:(iCarousel *)carousel viewForItemAtIndex:(NSUInteger)index reusingView:(ReflectionView *)view{ [BT_debugger showIt:self:@"viewForItemAtIndex"]; UIImageView *button; if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) { //return a standard UIImageView object with the image from the array of images... view = [[[ReflectionView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 200.0f, 200.0f)] autorelease]; button = [[[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 200.0f, 200.0f)] autorelease]; }else if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad){ //return a standard UIImageView object with the image from the array of images... view = [[[ReflectionView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 400.0f, 400.0f)] autorelease]; button = [[[UIImageView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 400.0f, 400.0f)] autorelease]; } [view addSubview:button]; button.image= [UIImage imageNamed:[AKAlbums objectAtIndex:index]]; if (aCarousel.vertical == 1 | aCarousel.type == iCarouselTypeWheel | aCarousel.type == iCarouselTypeInvertedWheel | aCarousel.type == iCarouselTypeInvertedRotary) { view.reflectionAlpha = 0; view.reflectionScale = 0; }else{ view.reflectionGap = [[BT_strings getJsonPropertyValue:screenData.jsonVars:@"AKGap":@"4"]floatValue]; view.reflectionAlpha = [[BT_strings getJsonPropertyValue:screenData.jsonVars:@"AKOpacity":@"0.5"]floatValue]; view.reflectionScale = [[BT_strings getJsonPropertyValue:screenData.jsonVars:@"AKScale":@"0.5"]floatValue]; } [view update]; return view; } ///// and ///// //carouselItemWidth... -(CGFloat)carouselItemWidth:(iCarousel *)carousel{ //[BT_debugger showIt:self:@"carouselItemWidth"]; //This needs to be wider than the image or the items have no space between them. //That might be a desirable effect in some instances. int imagewidth; if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone){ imagewidth = [[BT_strings getJsonPropertyValue:self.screenData.jsonVars:@"iCarouselImageWidth":@"200"]intValue]; } else if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad){ imagewidth = ([[BT_strings getJsonPropertyValue:self.screenData.jsonVars:@"iCarouselImageWidth":@"200"]intValue]*2); } return imagewidth; } I apologize sincerely for this oversight, my quest perfection of these plugins has failed me. lol

Thanks for the info @Kittsy. For existing projects, When the updated code is available in the control panel, will we just need to re-download our app source to use the revised plugin?

No just do that fix, for current apps you have downloaded the source code. it saves an api call. When the plugin is officially updated (just spoke to susan could be here tonight or the next few days) I will let you know, then you just need to update your plugin in self hosted, then download the package again for NEW projects. It auto resizes in the plugin, so no update to control panel.

Thanks! Also, perhaps it could be a good idea to add the option to control size in the control panel - especially for those who don't like to bother with code. I find that size 300-350px is great for the default iPad size. Im glad for this fix!

I'm working on a few new features, so I may include that with the next big update. Messing around with the sizes can cause the plugin to be temperamental depending on which carousel is used.

Thanks for the heads up Kittsy. One thing I noticed with the iPad is if it's in landscape mode the labels are hidden. (I think they go below the screen real estate).

Also, another feature that would be nice to have is a differentiation of offsets for iPhone and iPad. An offset that looks good on iPhone doesn't necessarily do so for iPad.
