Xcode 4 .xib Create iPad Version

Question

I have an iPhone xib I want to turn into an iPad xib. In Xcode 3 there was a \"Create iPad Version\" menu option. How do I do this in Xcode 4?

I currently resized m

Answer 1

On assessing my options, these were my thoughts:

• Too much of a hassle to install xcode 3 and downgrade project
• Don't want to mess with .xib file format - afraid it might break something that will show itself much later
• Copying the same nib is imperfect (see the explanations in this thread)

So finally, what I ended up doing that works fine is:

1. Create a new file, choose "UIViewController derived" class
2. Check the "intended for iPad" checkbox
3. Name the file -iPad
4. Delete the .h and .m corresponding to the uiviewcontroller
5. Now populate the new nib with the same objects, structure and connections as the original nib
6. Check if on iPad, if so then load the new nib else load the old nib
