Re: Lock screen and animated gif
How about changing the mouse cursor. I found below about using a lock screen. " The only exception to this (freeze window) is the mouse cursor. It continues to move with the mouse and any changes to the cursor icon (like set cursor to busy) do appear."

If Apple is so horrible, why do you do software to them and I think that Apple has no monopoly, since Android shares 85% of the phone market.

iPad portrait size stack doesn't fit to display
I have 13.3 inch Macbook retina computer (2560x1600 pixels). Now I try to develop iPad software. When I opened new iPad portrait size stack it didn't fit to my display. It is hard to put GUI elements to bottom of the stack, at least I don't know how. What should I do to get the stack to show all.
