 Description   

On the ipad 4 due to the higher pixel count i believe. it causes the control pad and the rest of the gui except the item bar to be too small even when the slider for the size is all the way up. it is smaller than version 0.6.1 and it annoys me so. please also notice the pause button and the chat button are really tiny as well.

All issues related to the GUI HUD D-pad controller size being too small (despite the setting in the options that changes the D-pad controller size) have been linked to MCPE-3041.

notice how small all the bottons are minus the hot bar. the max setting is definetly smaller than before the update. can somebody please respond. this problem is especially apparent in ipad 4 which i use.

Comment by Joshua [ 07/Jun/13 ]

i somehow fixed the hotbar from being 5 slots by deleting my game from the background and it gave me my 6 hotbar slots but the dpad size and pause/chat button size problem still persists.

Comment by Joshua [ 07/Jun/13 ]

somehow i only have 5 slots somehow. even with the smallest dpad.

its ok you didnt see it at first.

Comment by Jeremy Anderson [ 07/Jun/13 ]

Sorry, my bad. This is definitely a bug because the D-Pad is at it's smallest but you still haven't gotten even 1 extra slot in your hot-bar. You should have 6 at minimum, not 5.

Comment by Jeremy Anderson [ 07/Jun/13 ]

I was just making sure, that's all. That may be because mojang actually thought the d-pad was too big or it was for more slots etc. it mightn't be bug.

first pic is with the minimum setting for dpad, second is max setting and the last pic is before the update.

Comment by Joshua [ 07/Jun/13 ]

i said it was too small even when the slider was all the way up dont you read.

Comment by Jeremy Anderson [ 07/Jun/13 ]

Locate to the options page, enter the game menu (second one), then change the D-Pad Size to full or whatever suits your liking.

the first pic is after the update and the second is from before the update.
