PicSciP

This app is a fork of the sample Xcode project PhotoScroller:

"'PhotoScroller' demonstrates the use of embedded UIScrollViews and CATiledLayer to create a rich user experience for displaying and paginating photos that can be individually panned and zoomed. CATiledLayer is used to increase the performance of paging, panning, and zooming with high-resolution images or large sets of photos."

Changes

  • I added a Welcome UIAlertView that shows app usage instructions upon initial app launch.

  • I removed the ImageData.plist file since I wanted all of my images to be the same size, 1024x1536 px, and have the same naming pattern page_i.

  • I added two very useful & time-saving Photoshop scripts: One for resizing & tiling/slicing/cropping images, and one for creating all icon versions from the iTunesArtwork, 512x512-px image.

  • I made some other small changes, like style changes, changing the tiledLayer.levelsOfDetail from 4 to 2, moving the photos to their own directory called Photos, and perhaps other small changes. I recommend doing a diff -r to compare PicSciP with PhotoScroller.

Autorotation-Padding Bug

After rotating the device from portrait to landscape and back again, the padding is displayed on screen, but it shouldn't be. Setting PADDING to 1 to ameliorate this issue causes the page navigation to break after rotating the device from portrait to landscape and back again. Setting PADDING to 2 is the working compromise I chose. I wrote Apple about this. Please send me a pull request if you fix this issue. Thanks!
