I can't understand why I can't simply scroll to view in preview...even at 50% it won't view properly...I use a 13" Macbook Air...

Im thinking this needs to be another feature request and votes? Is this common enough for people to vote for? Is there something I can do and don't know it?

Thanks...see da image my peoples..

    @Thunder_Child my mac is 13 inch but i dont face this issue with 50 % , what is your screen resolution ? is it set to default or do you have it scaled ?

    Yep, happens all the time. I end up having to hide the size/device bar but even then it's not great the way it displays. Zoom (or scroll) has been asked many times before... would be great to have it.

    This engine is not perfect. Give GS team more time please. They will eventually fix it. Maybe soon or maybe after 2136891461 years.

    I aint saying I can't do my work...it suddenly became more of an issue working on some projects where I am using the iPad format...

    @Icebox1910 my default resolution is 1366 x 768. What is yours ?

    Hiding your dock (OS X) will free up some space, but I agree it's less than idea the way it currently works, you can . . . . . (that is to say it's technically straightforward, but not sure whether it breaks your GS user agreement as it's modifying the software) . . . open up the resource fork for GS's image assets and blank (open into an image editor like Photoshop and delete the pixels while leaving the file otherwise unchanged) all the icons and the semi-transparent bar that is currently covering the top of your scene as a quick way to get rid of it.

    Even when I pick "More Space", my MacBook Pro 15" still doesn't happily display the whole of an iPad screen in GameSalad's preview.

    So I made this video!

    Hmm @Armelline Ill just have to do those things you and "some" that @Socks mentioned. Not a fan of hiding my dock but that could help quite a bit.

    Thanks.

    Update. That did the trick. Sevral steps involved but works. Thanks again.
