Support for new icon sizes in iOS 7

[le rekomat]

Hi there

I just tried to compile my AIR app which includes the new icon sizes required for iOS 7 (76x76, 120x120, 152x152 and the Spotlight search result icons 40x40 and 80x80). Here's the icon section from my app descriptor XML:

<icon>
          <image29x29>assets/icons/icon29.png</image29x29>
          <image50x50>assets/icons/icon50.png</image50x50>
          <image57x57>assets/icons/icon57.png</image57x57>
          <image58x58>assets/icons/icon58.png</image58x58>
          <image72x72>assets/icons/icon72.png</image72x72>
          <image100x100>assets/icons/icon100.png</image100x100>
          <image114x114>assets/icons/icon114.png</image114x114>
          <image144x144>assets/icons/icon144.png</image144x144>
          <image512x512>assets/icons/icon512.png</image512x512>
          <image1024x1024>assets/icons/icon1024.png</image1024x1024>
          <!-- Additional app icons for iOS 7 -->
          <image40x40>assets/icons/icon40.png</image40x40>
          <image76x76>assets/icons/icon76.png</image76x76>
          <image80x80>assets/icons/icon80.png</image80x80>
          <image120x120>assets/icons/icon120.png</image120x120>
          <image152x152>assets/icons/icon152.png</image152x152>
</icon>

Compiling fails with the following error:

Error occurred while packaging the application:
[...]/Test_iOS-app.xml(59): error 103: application.icon.image40x40 is an unexpected element/attribute
[...]/Test_iOS-app.xml(60): error 103: application.icon.image76x76 is an unexpected element/attribute
[...]/Test_iOS-app.xml(61): error 103: application.icon.image80x80 is an unexpected element/attribute
[...]/Test_iOS-app.xml(62): error 103: application.icon.image120x120 is an unexpected element/attribute
[...]/Test_iOS-app.xml(63): error 103: application.icon.image152x152 is an unexpected element/attribute

Looks like support for the new icon sizes is missing. When can we expect support for the new icon sizes? Or am I completely wrong?!

René

btw.: I'm using AIR beta (3.8.0.1350) with FB 4.7

Hi,

I am running the trial cs6 with air 3.9 on windows but cannot compile to submit to iTunes. If I compile the binary is rejected due to no 120x120 icon. If I add it to the XML file it is over written, if I write protect it I get a publishing error of unable to find icon. Any ideas? Thanks.

You have to use the latest version of AIR 3.9 (build 880 would do), and do the build from the command line. That way the icons won’t be removed from the XML.

Am googling. Example command line for windows to build ipa for iPhone with adt? Thanks

adt -package -target ipa-app-store -storetype pkcs12 -keystore ???.p12 -storepass ??? -provisioning-profile ???.mobileprovision ???.xml ???.ipa ???.swf

Could you publish from flash and then unzip the .ipa add the incons and info and then rezip and rename back to .ipa?

no.

Hey.. i've got the solution:

1.)

Add to .xml file this one:

<image120x120>icons/120.png</image120x120>

2.) lock the .xml file, so flash cannot remove this modification

3.) add the icon to the embeed file list

This should work with the .1080 version..
