New IPAD Mini, A17 Pro with IOS 18.7.2, doesn't fill the screen with IFD100 running. It leaves about 1 1/2 inch of the screen blank in landscape mode. I have tried everything I have researched but nothing has worked. My previous IPAD, approximately 3 models earlier worked fine. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Ronnie Gantt

Must be a setting on the mini. My A17 works perfectly.

18.6.2

Ipad mini A17 now upgraded to 18.7.2

Are you referring to the 1" on the R side of the screen?

The other 3 sides go right to the edge on mine.

It is the same on my mini6.

I don't remember my mini4 to be any different.

Yes I am referring to the 1 inch on the right hand side of the screen.

The 6th and 7th generation of iPad mini changed screens from the previous 2048 x 1536 resolution to 2266 x 1488. With the change the ppi remains the same.

I have access to the older resolution iPad mini. The borders around the IFD100 display are barely noticeable. That's good.

We'll look into adjustments for the slightly different screen resolution that your iPad mini 7th generation has. Quite possibly we can update the app to use more of your screen.

I have the same issue on my 6th Gen Mini and 4th gen 11 Pro.

Mini -
- Portrait - Black bar on top and bottom.
- Landscape - Black bar on the right side.

11 Pro -
- Portrait - Black bar on top
- Landscape - Black bar on right side.

I don't think there is really anything that can be done besides bringing it to Avidyne's attention.

Here are some screen grabs of the 2 devices:

Photos are very helpful, Jared!

Also, due to your response, I realize that my name has no attribution to Avidyne. I'm a developer at Avidyne. I'll be looking into unused space for the IFD100 displays.

Thank you!
