On my MB Air the iPad (retina) simulator, even at it's smallest size (50% scale) does not fit on the screen, requiring awkard scrolling. Does anyone know of a property that can be edited or something to make it even smaller than 50%?

1Where should the required pixels come from? – JustSid Jan 20 '13 at 02:17

3At 50% on the 13" MBA, the simulator should fit in landscape. That's the best you can do. – rmaddy Jan 20 '13 at 02:38

@JustSid make it 33%, or 25%, if that is too messy. How else would it work? – jpswain Jan 21 '13 at 01:05

You can use the cmd key modifiers to change the size:
- Cmd+1 - original
- Cmd+2 - smaller
- Cmd+3 - smallest (this works best for me on my Macbook Air 11)

Unfortunately not, from what I've found. This link from a similar question explains,
it seems reasonable for the accurate rendering profiling that it maintains 1-to-1 pixel ratio, otherwise it would have to sub-sample the pixels, causing the profiling to be incorrect.
I use a 13" MB, so I understand that it's difficult to fit the iPad simulator on the screen.
