Hello,
Thanks, but sorry, I don't get it. Also the net is full of questions and very few answers regarding this topic, so I don't seem to be the only one.
I have a ViewController with a view. In that view there is an UIImageView background subview. Now, when I rotate the device I want to switch the image of the UIImageview so it fills the view again without being distorted. The only working method I found out up to now is to determine the correct values for the views frames and bounds by try and error and to hardcode them into the didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation method. Isn't there any example that shows how this is done properly? I downloaded all of apple samplecode and didn't find anything:
Thanks and regards,
Sebastian Mecklenburg_______________________________________________
