Tip: revert pngcrush optimization in Xcode 4.3
When you are adding PNG images to an iOS app, Xcode will optimize and compress them when compiling, using a tool called pngcrush
. To revert this optimization back, copy the .png
files from the .ipa
bundle into some folder and run this in terminal
/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneOS.platform/Developer/usr/bin/pngcrush -dir SOME_DIR -revert-iphone-optimizations -q *.png
SOME_DIR
is a destination path, something like ~/temp
.
