Air simulator bug on MBP retina

hello,
when I try to debug my actionscript project on my MBP retina, the adl simulator window size is too big and I can not see the whole window.
like this:
OS X 10.9, MBP retina 15'
Flashbuilder 4.7
AIR SDK 3.9.0 build 1210
simulator target iphone 4
is there anyone has the same bug ?

I believe this is the expected behavior on the native stage. Even when running on a retina device with requestedDisplayResolution set to high, the native stage uses the same coordinate system as the non-retina version, and stageWidth and stageHeight are reported with the same units, as mentioned in the docs for contentsScaleFactor:
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display/Stage.htm l#contentsScaleFactor
You could query the value of contentsScaleFactor to know if running in retina mode or not.
The native stage coordinates stay the same, but if you are using Stage3D in your app, the higher res back buffer is created with another additonal argument to configureBackBuffer():
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/FlashPlatform/reference/actionscript/3/flash/display3D/Context 3D.html#configureBackBuffer%28%29
and in this case the raw pixel dimensions would be double in size.

  • Comparison haswell air 13 i5 vs mbp retina i5 the same ssd

    Hi, everyone!
    Where can i find comparison haswell air 13 i5 vs mbp retina i5 the same ssd?
    Or at least air 2012 vs pro retina but equal characteristics (found many, but there are 8 gb ram vs 4 gb and i5 vs i7, which is b****t).
    Thanks

    I don't really know, yet. Maybe check with the folks at GeekBench in a couple of weeks?

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro and MacBook Air forums. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • MBP Retina and Loginox1.0.6B6 on Mac OS 10.7.4 cause Icon bug

    Hello,
    just want to inform you. I had this icon bug and apple told be to reinstall  the new MBP Retina. I have reinstalled and the bug come again. I have informed the Loginox Support team aswell. If you restore back to the default image in Loginox the bug is gone. All Icons such as forward and backward or fullscreen will be deformed. Take a look at the screen shots.
    Here the Icon bug:

    After:

    Hi Spillerz,
    the new verison of Loginox should be working. I donot use it anymore after the issue.
    Important is a reboot after changing to the default, and all should work.

  • Display and render bug with FCPX 10.8 on a MBP retina 15"

    Hi,
    I have a brand new MBP Retina 15, 2.7 GHZ with SSD, OS X 10.8.3 and FCPX 10.8 and I have a problem with most of  video fx that just doesn't preview and render.
    When I try to preview it display black on the viewer (or white picture or no effect or something uncorrect).
    When I apply the fX it render it as pur black or white. Same with Magic Bullet look, when I render it's just black picture.
    No problem on geometrics fx
    Same story with Motion
    I throw the pref and all the basics rescue opération, even re-install FCPX and Motion following the apple process, no changes !
    I've got same configuration on the MBP 17"(2009 model) and no problem.
    Does it ring a bell to sbdyelse ?
    Do you know a way to contact by email sbdy at FCPX apple ?
    thanks
    cheers

    here is what I did :
    Timemachine save of the mac
    Restart > format the drive
    Install Mac OSX
    Timemachine BUT NOT APPLICATION
    Re-install all app's
    and it works
    Important
    I did a first try when I had everything from time machine except application, then FCPX was working. Then I re-installl everything from app store and webpages of the other soft (no so many) : FCPX was working. Finally to get the last few app (like office) I decided to use timemachine/application to install them... and the same problem came back. (...)
    I start from start...  format again... and install the app from app store and webpages, even MBL - Slice X and other different plugin and it work. I decided to not install some recent things before saving my system.
    The main 2 things I didn't install are
    from appstore : Resolution Tab
    and from web
    the SONY XDCAM driver I used this week to check some F55 files
    http://www.sonycreativesoftware.com/pdzk-lt2
    So It could be one of those... maybe, but I don't want to loose anymore time to know it for sure.

  • MBP Retina or Powerful Ultrabook?

    Hi, I've been a PC user all my life, but after working my way through the first iPod Nano, a couple iPod Touches, and now an iPad 2- I've grown to like the way Apple works. I'm finally at the point where I've decided to upgrade my 4-year old Future Shop sale Toshiba, which surprisingly has lasted me a good deal of time. However, I'm not a fan of the limited capabilities, the weight, and the fact that it very easily overheats (to nearly scalding temperatures), leading me to opt for my iPad most of the time. I'm a sucker for HD and quick boot-ups, so of course I fell in love with the MBP Retina when it was released. The only thing holding me back is the hefty price tag. Because of this, I began to research several ultrabooks and found that I could get the same specs (except for retina, but I'm fine with 1080p) and even a few bonus features (I would love a Blu-Ray drive and some accident-proof features) for half, or slightly-more-than-half of the price of the MBP. My favourite features of the MBP are the "little things"- fast bootup, magsafe, trackpad, and iCloud to work seamlessly with my iPad (which, i guess isn't really a "little thing"). I'm just not sure if these are worth the extra $1000 when I could just get an amazing PC.
    I plan to use this computer in the following ways:
    - Web browsing/ social networking
    - Homework (university... of course)
    - Entertainment (play movies, TV shows, etc)
    - Some video and picture editing (I have a Sony camera which records AVCHD, which edits best on Sony Vegas)
    - Running language software (i.e. Rosetta Stone)
    So anyway, I'm not a gamer or a hardcore video editor, but I would like to be able to do some editing and video playback with clarity and without lag. As such, I figure I really only need the i5, so the base model of the Retina is fine for me. But again, I could get a **** good computer with i5 for much less money than the Retina, so I'm looking for reasons to sway either way. Any thoughts?
    Thanks,
    tj

    Hmm...
    'll readily admit, I'm a bit of an Apple head, so always say YEAH GO FOR IT.
    However,
    I'd say be aware, if you aren't going to use the power, you may be better going for alternatives, but I'll give you a rundown of some pro's and cons for your usage.
    - Cold boots in 15 seconds flat
    - can play 4 1080p streams at once without lag or framerate drop
    - Photo editing on Aperture is excellent
    - Photostream means your photos are there almost instantly wirelessly (not with the camera of course)
    - Photoshop CS6 (when the retina patch is out) will look brilliant
    - I had a photo zoomed out to fill half the screen size, of a whole person, yet could still see individual hairs on the head.
    - Build, engineering, design and material quality unsurpassed in the industry (you cannot flex anywhere or make anything creak)
    - Logevity, just upgraded from a 2008 Air - which was still going strong with no visible wear or damage/scratches
    -Power, good graphics chip, switchable for battery life
    - Video editing is amazing (on Final Cut Pro - which is Retina ready) you can veiw full 1080p with the interface still visible
    Cons:
    - Lag - on 'best for retina' its great, on 'More space' scaling, if you allow GFX chip switching, will cause serious lag - forcing the GeForce fixes this
    - Other laptops will be great for your needs, and cheaper, but may not last as long
    - The next generation in a year will likely iron out the lag issues
    - Most programs are not yet retina ready - meaning they look... well... very dodgy indeed
    I would say the MacBook is a fantastic machine and you will not regret the purchase, it will last you a good 3-5 years and you will thoughoughly enjoy it.  It's an absolute joy to you and the trackpad and keyboard are brilliant.  The speakers are also great.
    However, you will likely get a notebook more than good enough for your needs, as you said, for much less money.  If you can happily afford it - get the Mac, they are some of the finest computers money can buy.  If it's a stretch - get a **** good alternative, you'll enjoy it equally and get great performance and some extra money in the old pocket!
    Hope this helped a bit anyway - if you have any questions, ask away, more than happy to help

  • A vote for the MBP Retina

    For quite a few months I monitored these forums to see how the new retina MBP would go over.  I do know that forums are usually the places were people with problems appear.  Rarely do you get people showing up and saying everything is just great.  So you need to take these forums with a grain of salt and use them to guide your decision making.
    So I followed the heat thread, the burn-in thread and a number of others.
    I'm a programmer by trade.  I use VMWare Fusion every day and I often need tons of RAM.  Flash disk is also almost required these days as I need to switch between things quite quickly.  So when the retina MBP was introduced my drool production went up about a thousand fold!   I've been working on the following models:
    A 2008 MBP pro 17" with a core2duo, 4gb RAM and a 256gb drive
    Sold that and got:
    A 2010 MBP pro, high-res 15" display core i7 with 8gb of RAM.
    In some ways the 2010 MBP was a dream machine.  The 8gb of RAM made it possible for me to open 2-3 VMs under Fusion and the high-res display made up for the loss of the 2 inches of display real estate when stepping down from the 17".
    The battery life on the 2010 sucked.  I NEVER got more than a couple of hours out of it.   I also noticed that even after a nice fresh clean Lion install with few programs and processes the processors worked hard.  This machine got hot and burned through battery power like a million candle spot light.  Still it was a great machine and I did millions of lines of code on that machine.
    But since the introduction of the retina MBP with its 16gb of RAM and the big flash disk I've been making a mess of my desk whenever I visit Apple's web page.  I was trying to temper that with a belief that as a first gen re-work it is bound to have some issues.  So I'd go over to BestBuy and play with the machines there.  I often got strange looks from the Apple Best Buy guy and I think he sort of came not to like me because unlike most of his customers I was in the system prefs changing settings playing with terminal windows and I don't think he appreciated what I was doing.  I didn't care.  I wanted to get a feel for the machine.
    So last month I made a pitch to my boss to let me do an upgrade.  He finally relented and about 2 weeks ago I placed my order.  My MBP retina arrived on Monday.  So right off the bat I need to qualify my statements here with the fact that I've only had mine about 3 days.  Certainly not long enough to find all of the problems.  But here is my impression since getting this machine.
    I opted for the 15" retina, 2.6gHz, 16gb RAM, 768 Flash Drive.
    When I received the unit on Monday I loaded it up with my editors, compilers, programs from the AppStore, music, etc.   Of my 768 I'm down to about 210gb free which is plenty.  I was expecting to use more.
    The first thing I must confess about this new machine is how quiet the processors are.  I installed iStat Menus which I like so I can monitor how my MBP is doing.  With my 2010 just running a single VMWare Fusion VM had the processor at about 30% and the fan running say 3500 RPM.  It was hot and noisy.  This new machine, as I type this post has two VMs open.  A Windows 7 32 bit, and a Windows 7 64 bit.  I'm also listening to iTunes, I have mail, google chrome, calendar, contacts and a number of other apps open.  As I sit here the CPU activity almost non existent.  The rMBP isn't even struggling in the least with this load.  In direct comparison my 2010 MBP would have 30-40% CPU load and the fans would be screaming away, not at full bore but really loud. But here I sit with this new machine and it is quiet, only very slightly warm and I'm doing what I "normally" do.
    For this alone the upgrade was CLEARLY worth it to me.  The computing horsepower in this machine is insane.
    My unit came with (heaven forbid) the LG display that everyone in the "burn-in" thread says is HORRIBLE and some of these guys have gone through 5 or 6 replacements to solve their burn in problems.  I don't doubt they've had these issues.  I don't doubt they exist.  I have none of them.  This display is freaking amazing!  
    Now I've heard it said that the IR (image retention, ghosting, burn-in) can take weeks to appear.  So I'm not out of the woods yet.  But at this point in time the display is simply awesome and with the background I choose I see ZERO ghosting.  I'll say it again.  This display is freaking awesome!
    Now I'm not a graphic artist and I cannot and will not try to tell you if my color point is correct for the white or not.  What I can tell you is that this display looks good to me.  I can read even the smallest text easily.  The clarity is simply amazing.  I'm 55 and have certainly reached that age where my eyes work overtime.  I wear progressive glasses and I'm not having any trouble at all with the display.
    The only thing I could point a finger at is that this new retina display is bounded by a black area that for my eyes is the same color as my background.  I've found myself trying to slide windows into that area and being shocked that they are disappearing (because the display physically ends there).  This is just something to get used to or I could set my background to be a little lighter.  Anyway this is a pretty damned small negative if I must say so.
    Ok on heat.  As I mentioned above this machine just idles along 99% of the time so there is little heat being produced.  I'm not doing nothing either.  In my Windows 7 VMs I'm running compilers and when the are cranking on code the Windows CPU is showing 100% while the rMBP registers this as like 5%.  Not sure I understand how that is working yet but I see no speed loss in my VM and yet my rMBP is just coasting even though Windows is registering 100% CPU.
    The airflow on this new computer is to take air in from the sides and dispense the hot air out a vent in front of the display.  I personally think this is a design flaw.  I think this may be causing some of the burn in/ghosting issues because the computer is venting hot air right at the display.  I personally would have vented it out the back beneath the screen but perhaps the latch as it is designed for the rMBP may make that impossible.
    But as an engineer I have an idea for a way to fix the heat on the LCD panel issue.  It would not take much to make a small plastic piece that sat in that hinge area and took the outgoing air and sent it to the sides way from the panel.  I'm not gonna design this but if the heat really is the issue this simple $2 piece would probably save the panel.
    So my take is this:
    For me personally and acceptance of anything is a very personal choice, the retina MBP is exactly what Apple bills it to be.  The best, more amazing laptop I've ever owned.  It is cool (temp wise), fast (amazingly fast), small, thin, light, has an amazing screen visually and I predict this computer will satisfy my needs for quite a few years to come.
    I will not berate or downplay the issues some have had.  I honestly believe there have been bad retina MBPs.  Bad screens.  Heat issues.  Failures.  They happen and those people have suffered and I hope Apple will make it right for them.  But I'm one to say that my unit more than satisfies my goals and intents. Like any piece of machinery it has its small issues.  I'm sure my screen will have some IR.  I'm sure my unit will get hot but so far it doesn't work even 1/4 as hard as my older 2010 MBP.
    So my point to everyone is make your own choice.  Do not let the threads you see in these forums convince you that your retina MBP will be problem ridden.  Just because other people see and are bothered by a problem you might not be and the problem may not exist on your retina MBP.
    For me, this machine is simply amazing.  I can only hope my panel does not suddenly start to show massive ghosting.  I do plan to keep a close eye on that and on the heat.  But right now I'm not expecting issues.
    Good luck in your purchase and also to those that have purchased and are not satisfied.

    I need to add just one more thing and that is on battery life.  Last night I sat with the rMBP on my lap installing software, surfing the web, answering emails for close to 4 and 1/2 hours.  At the point I took it back to the charger it still was showing a computed battery time remaining of 3.5 hours.
    Today I had two VMs open and took the machine of the charger and sat outside with my dogs for about 30 minutes.  During this time I was working in both VMs, editing and compiling code.  My battery life estimate showed a good solid 4 hours. 
    This is roughly 6 times greater than what I had with my 2010 MBP and it too had a SSD.  I am not sure why but this retina MBP just seems to not work as hard doing anything that caused my 2010 MBP to struggle.
    While the battery life is certainly better than I expected it is clear that load can change that very rapidly. So I think I still need to visit clients with an external battery or charger in hand.  But I don't think I will be quite so scared that my laptop will simply run out of power before I can even get it plugged in.

  • How long is your shutdowntime from MBP Retina 13" ML? (and more)-Please help!

    Hello everyone,
    I have been searching in this Support Community for a while, but I cannot really find a solution/answer to my issue(s):
    Note: If you do not feel like reading my whole story, PLEASE only post your shutdown time from your MacBook Pro Retina 13", 2.5GHz, 8GB with Mountain Lion.
    I have bought a new MBP Retina 13", 8GB, 128GB (basic model) at the 23rd of DEC 2012 and I have not got the chance to really use it because it keeps getting problems (trackpad was not working well, battery health never 100%, shutdown time of 23secs and more - will tell). Called Apple Care within 5 days: Told me this all is not the way it should be, advised me to go to the Apple Store to let it check (traveling time for me is about 2 hours).
    Went to the Apple Store in Amsterdam (I live in the NL) with these issues (bought this MB at a reseller abroad though - cannot go back): Genius told me some hardware should be replaced because this is not a software problem (tested). I mentioned the DOA Policy, because I did not even got the chance to use my new precious rMBP and I mentioned this problem within the 14 days. He told me I could NOT get a new rMBP from them, because I did not bought it straight from Apple (Apple Store online/offline). Okay fair enough, I let it repaired: new SSD 128GB including top case, new trackpad, new battery. Found it a little bit doubtful to replace this kind of hardware from a 2-week old rMBP.. Picked it up 7 days later.
    Tested it somewhere in a quiet place nearby the Apple Store. Trackpad was working as it should be, battery health was 100%, shutdown time was still 23 seconds.. Rebooted that thing, waited for 5min (staring at it) and shut it down again; 23 seconds. Started it up, opened only Safari and iPhoto, shut it down right afterwards, 23 seconds.
    Went straight back to the Apple Store. Told a Genius at the Bar what was going on. He tested it, told me this is NOT normal. Took it to the technician room, they tested it for like 15min, came back with the technician man, told me that this was NOT normal, BUT they could not find what causes this and told me they have never seen/heard this issue before. Got the 'manager' to talk to me (his nametag did not tell he was the manager though) and suddenly it was a 'non-issue' and told me to go home..?!
    I told him the whole story - again, mentioned that I had also shut down some MBP Retina's 8GB in different Apple Resellers and this particular Apple Store, and ALL shut down within like 3-5sec. He said I could not compare these models with my rMBP because those probably (probably) are all demo models. Okay, so what is he telling me, that I got fooled by Apple; their show models are working better than the one I bought?
    Anyway, got over this, I thought if everything is working well then I just leave it this way. Then two days later the battery health drops to 98% with 2 load cycles, and System Information and Coconut Battery gave a different battery charge than the one in the right upper corner of my screen (5% higher on the screen).
    Also, my storage gets fuller and fuller by the day, while my rMBP is still empty from files. The only thing I did was installing iWork '09, MS Office 2011 and Coconut Battery. And the only thing I did those days was surfing around to find answers for my issues (instead of studying). So only Safari has been used. My storage space left at this moment is 88GB from my 128GB, so what is happening? I checked a lot about this at this Community, tried a lot, nothing works.
    And third, my shutdown time is still 23 seconds, while a friend of mine owns a new MacBook Air 13", 4GB SSD, Mountain Lion and his shutdown time is like 4 seconds. All my Macs with Mountain Lion shut down within like right away, 4 seconds. And they do not even have SSD and 8GB. So how can this be 'not an issue' (manager did not used the word NORMAL) with my NEW rMBP?
    I am familiar with working with Apple Products since a very long time, I have been using iMacs and other MacBooks for the last 6 years and I have never (ever) had this much trouble with an Apple product. I am highly disappointed and I think I have the right for a new rMBP - since replacing 3 major hardware parts, speaking with Apple Care for 6 times and going to an Apple Store twice, within ONE MONTH is not solving all these problems. I think a MacBook worth €1800 (in the NL) should not be like this!
    Thank you for reading this whole story. I thought I should tell you everything in detail so you have all the information you might need to help me out with maybe one of these problems.
    I thank you very much in advance!

    Well to update my own thread just for the people who are reading or for the people who are also searching for an answer:
    I was sick of it that Apple Care told me to go to the Apple Store and Apple Store told me to call Apple Care.. So I decided to tell my story to.. Tim Cook. I know.. but I did email him, and I know.. he won't be reading those emails himself. Anyway, wasn't expecting to hear anything from Apple HQ any time soon, but it already gave me a better feeling to email this.
    The very next day I got a call from the Apple Store right away: I was getting a new rMBP! And I am typing on it right now. Everything works perfectly fine and the shutdown time is sometimes 3-4 seconds and sometimes it takes a little bit longer, like about 20 seconds.
    But the shutdown time wasn't the only issue that I emailed for - I know this thread was about the shutdown time so I am coming back on that.
    The conclusion I can make based on my experiences with Mountain Lion on different Macs in this house (and my two Retina's I worked on) is the same as what already is mentioned before; it has to do with Mountain Lion.
    BUT, in MY case and the reason why I opened this thread, it was NOT Mountain Lion. It was my rMBP for sure.

  • What is the cost for replacing a new complete keyboard set for a 15-inch MBP Retina?

    When I went back to home today, I noticed that a small amount water has been splitted on my keyboard. Several keys did not work then. I tried to use a hair dryer to dry it but it did not work. I guessed the keyboard may have short-routed, unfortunately...the hot air had cause some of the keys transformed. I am quite sure that the motherboard has not been wetted.  I will probably bring my MBP Retina to the Genius Bar tmr, just wanna have brief approximation on my repairing fee for a complete keyboard set only..THX

    Arm + Leg.
    Seriously.
    The multiple insults you have inflicted on the poor computer will NOT be covered and the warranty will be void. The keyboards on the unibody computers, especially those warped by heat, are not repairable. To replace, the working guts of the computer have to be transferred to a new topcase that has the new keyboard and trackpad, bonded in place. For regular MBPs, the parts+labor charge ran in the $700-900 range. Retinas will be more expensive.

  • I would like to copy an "Event" from MBA to MBP Retina.  How?

    I took a MB Air on vacation.   Uploaded pictures from several cameras and phones from family & friends.   Edited them in iphoto and created an event.  Now I'm home and would like to view and edit the photos on my MBP Retina, and save them there.   How do I copy this event to the MBP/Retina?  I don't want to merge libraries, just copy the contents of this particular event.   Thanks in advance!

    The only way to move the Event from one Library to another including all the metadata and version history is to use iPhoto Library Manager.
    iPhoto Library Manager
    If you only want to move the photos but don't mond about Faces and version history you can export the images to a folder and the copy that to the other machine and then import them.

  • Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics

    I have a new MBP Retina with Mavericks 10.9.4 installed. I have received constant kernal panics since a few days into it. It seemed as though they were being cause by the io/logic boards, but those have both been replaced now. OS has been reinstalled multiple times to no avail. BSD and kernals blamed are all over the place (Dock, WindowsServer, mds; filesystems, AppleSMBusController, IOAcceleratorFamily)
    The latest kernal panic is as follows:

    I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.

    An update on my situation.
    I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
    Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
    Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
    For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
    Below is the log output:

    I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
    I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
    Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Audio issues with some full screen applications (game) and teamspeak with a 15" MBP retina display

    While trying to play League of Legends in the lobby and loading screens i can hear everything but when i go in game i cant hear anything, and with teamspeak my teamspeak cant detect the input or output devices and i can hear everything else like skype and everything
    Already reinstaled flash restored the system and took it to the apple store, this happened like for 2 days with youtube and they solved that but not the problem with the game or teamspeak

    Apple doesn't offer the option of full resolution (2880x1800) and says everything other than 1440 x 900 won't look as good as 1440x900.
    so while you can set the monitor to 17" resolution (1920x1080) it has to simulate it on a 2880x900 screen and has to blur and reinterpolate elements to make it work
    they've really messed it up for anyone wanting true HD resolution for professional reasons.
    Indeed. Everything except 2880x1800, which is unavailable without SwitchResX, and 1440x900, which comfortably fits one pixel of the image into a four pixel square of the Retina Display, must be simulated or scaled. However, while the scaling is real, the 17" "simulation" looks as good, to my eye at least, as my wife's MBP 17". Going smaller will test one's eyes probably as much as Apple's scaling algorithms so the tradeoff for greater screen real-estate may turn out not to be as bad as we'd think. All I need is a MBP Retina Display and SwitchResX to find out...

  • Why has the price of apple care for MBP retina increased?

    A couple of weeks ago I'm so sure it was quoted as approx $250, now it is $429! I'm looking at the 2.3 gHz model and using the Australian website both times... My main concern is has the price increased because there are alot of problems with the MBP retina?

    250 is for Air & 13" models
    350 for 15-17" and Retina
    Just where are you seeing 429. Post a link.

  • Screen real-estate on the 15" MBP Retina display

    The 15" MacBook Pro Retina Display has a remarkable 2880x1800 pixel resolution, compared to the 27" LED display's 2560x1440. Normally, screen real-estate is defined as how much stuff (windows, menu bar items, bookmark lists, etc) you can fit on the screen, with a larger (that is, more pixels) screen being able to show more stuff using its native resolution.
    With the MBP's Retina display, the pixels are so small that using its native resolution in the same way as with the 27" monitor should result in, say, really small menu bar items, etc. As a result, the default monitor setting involves scaling, so that something which might normally take up one pixel might get four or eight devoted to it, making it larger and easier to see. Its monitor control panel allows changing that relationship so that everything could be made to appear even larger, resulting in less screen real-estate, or smaller, resulting in more screen real-estate; i.e., lots more stuff can fit on the screen.
    My question is whether, at the smallest setting offered, the screen real-estate is the equivalent of, say, a 32" monitor which also has 2880x1800 pixel resolution but is spread over a much smaller physical area, or is the Retina's display still scaled to some smaller equivalent resolution because straight 1 to 1 would simply be too small to be practical? If that's the case, what does the effective resolution work out to be at the smallest setting?
    I'm aware that's not a simple question because, for example, I understand that an HD Movie could be displayed pixel for pixel even if everything else outside that window is scaled. Moreover, the use of vector graphics complicates the matter further. But for things like menu lists and word processing documents, can the MBP's Retina display be set to what we understand to be 1 to 1?
