Launch image e and app icon for iPad pro

Apple is forcing me to add an icon and a launch image compatible with the new iPad pro, but Flash Pro is not able to do that. I researched at various places and encounters not as it should be just the name of the launch image.


Please can anyone help me? I'm going crazy with this.

There are hacks for this. You'll have to poke around to find some more detailed info on it, but I've run into this before.

I had this problem when I wanted to use cs6 instead of cc.  The answer was to manually add the image to the app.xml file and then make the app.xml read-only so that flash wouldn't automatically overwrite it on publish. It's a hassle, but it can work.

Incidentally, I think this is a great time to suggest that adobe make these images sizes something that gets imported into flash via an xml or text file. Then we can manually update them ourselves immediately instead of waiting on adobe to hard code it into flash. After Effects does this with it's supported graphics cards and I find that a super-helpful feature.

There are two complications. One is Flash Pro, which will delete things it doesn't know from the XML. The other is ADT, which also knows a fixed list of icons. You can work around the cases where ADT knows an icon size but Flash Pro does, but right now I think ASDT doesn't know the 167x167 size, so fooling Flash Pro won't help.

I've asked Adobe if it could be added. Also, I didn't yet try a submission, at this point Apple might just give you a warning, and not reject your app.

Another issue is the splash screen, I haven't yet figured out what the file name needs to be, for the 2048x2732 or 2732x2048 image.

I think you have to wait until the AIR team releases an update with compatibility for the new iPad Pro resolution.
