Thanks Scott I’ll try shark and see what happens . Might well be a false reading in instruments.

Simon,

I’m not finding any leaks at all in the image class. I’ve modified it quite a bit, but not to the point where I would have “fixed” a resource leak ;-)

I would try using Shark to see what is being leaked and when. If you really think it is being leaked within the Image class itself, I would simplify your app so it it’s easier to find.

Again, I don’t think it is in the Image class. You can also verify this by using the generic template and running it through shark with just a simple animation or image transform.

On the wording you can change that if you can think of something more suitable.. don’t want to give you all the credit ;)

I do have one other issue, that might be better posted elsewhere, but I wanted to know on the most recent project I’m getting a lot of of leaks from the Image class and wondered if you knew (now further along) about an issues with it?

I’d point them out but i can’t seem to get my head round the output of the leaks performance tool (if have any advice on that also lol).

Cheers

Hi Mike,

The logo is fine i’ll add that :). However I had expected something more like a 320 x 480 and or 480 x 320.

Perhaps with a messag saying developed with the help of 71 squared.
