The iPad programming guide says that the splitView\'s left pane is fixed to 320 points. But 320 pixels for my master view controller is too much. I would like to reduce it a
The storyboard way would be this one, mentioned by @Tim:
Furthermore, if you want the Master view to always take up a certain percentage of the screen then you can use the Key Path = "preferredPrimaryColumnWidthFraction" instead and set the value to 0.2 (for 20% screen size).
Please note that the "maximumPrimaryColumnWidth" is set to 320, so if you try the screen percent value of 0.5 (50%) it won't go above 320. You can add a key path for maximumPrimaryColumnWidth if you need to override this.
