How long does it take for a new released device to show up in SDK?

These days the new Edge 1050 was released. How long does it normally take for a new device, to have it available in the SDK?

  • It looks like it should, based on the images in the sim. at 1920x1080.

    Here for example is the Rino.  The real device has two antennas, and at the bottom, the mike

     .

  • So to summarize this discussion:

    1) the background images for large handheld devices are pre-cropped (for whatever reason - maybe due to the next point)

    2) if your desktop vertical resolution is too low, then the simulator window may be too small to display the full background image / device display

    3) there's no way to pan/zoom/scroll the simulator output so you can see whatever is obscured by 2)

    As far as workarounds go for when your PC's desktop resolution is just too low, I can think of a couple:

    - you could run the simulator in a virtual machine (so you can set a large resolution which will be scaled) - obviously this is a huge pain

    - if you have another device, like an ipad, you could try to make a remote desktop connection to the PC at a higher resolution than would normally be possible

    - you could rotate your desktop output, assuming your GPU supports it. this might not be so impractical on a laptop, if you use an external mouse and keyboard as input devices while your laptop is sitting on a table, sideways.

  • ok, thanks for your explanations!
