Converting Storyboard from iPhone to iPad

ios, ipad, iphone, storyboard, xcode

Solution

I found out a kind of solution:

Duplicate your iPhone-Storyboard and rename it `MainStoryboard_iPad.storyboard`

Close Xcode and then open this file any text editor.

Search for `targetRuntime="iOS.CocoaTouch"`and change it to `targetRuntime="iOS.CocoaTouch.iPad"`

Change the code in the MainStoryboard_iPad.storyboard from:

`<simulatedScreenMetrics key="destination" type="retina4"/>` to

`<simulatedScreenMetrics key="destination"/>`

Now save everything and reopen Xcode. The iPad-Storyboard has the same contents as the iPhone-file but everyting could be disarranged.

This saved me hours - hopefully this will help you

Problem

I have an `iPhone` application which has a storyboard. Now I want to provide an `iPad` application too. So I asked me whether there is a function which helps me convert my `iPhone` storyboard to an `iPad` storyboard. To be specific: Is there a similar function or is there only the manual way ?
