so concerning resolution independence.. does it matter if you turn that on later if you forgot.. or even turn it off after you change your mind?

does this mess with the graphics?

cheers

    The checkbox simply tells the compiler to process the images for Resolution Independence when you upload the app to GS.com for processing. If unchecked...the app bundle will use your default graphics in all devices.

    But if those default graphics are high-resolution...this will put strain on your app on older devices...and may cause them to crash...as the compiler creates "lighter" versions of the graphics when the RI box is checked and uses the originals only in 4G devices.

    It is best to determine if you are going to do RI at when starting your app...then build your graphics for it ahead of time.
