Hello,

Thanks, but sorry, I don't get it. Also the net is full of questions and very 
few answers regarding this topic, so I don't seem to be the only one.
I have a ViewController with a view. In that view there is an UIImageView 
background subview. Now, when I rotate the device I want to switch the image of 
the UIImageview so it fills the view again without being distorted. The only 
working method I found out up to now is to determine the correct values for the 
views frames and bounds by try and error and to hardcode them into the 
didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation method. Isn't there any example that shows 
how this is done properly? I downloaded all of apple samplecode and didn't find 
anything:

Thanks and regards,
Sebastian Mecklenburg_______________________________________________
