Yes I feel the same way - I wimped out and got one of my colleagues to buy the license for me!

I think part of the answer may be to get a really large monitor! (Or force orientation to landscape.) You can switch off the 'frame'; and you can adjust the size of the window (invisible grow box in the corner) - however that lets you get bigger than true size. On a 1920 x 1200 monitor, I can get the iPad screen at 864 x 1157; presumably if I fiddled around enough I could get it just right.

There is a 'zoom' menu item, which seems to be like the green "+" button: toggle between maximum visible size and whatever the size was before; I suggest that's options for exact sizes would a good feature request (along with a paypal alternative).

The missing element for me is displaying touches, which I think it would be unreasonable to ask for - I don't suppose it's in the AirPlay stream. I've been experimenting with sending touch info over the network to another LiveCode app on the Mac, that can then use a tiny 'system window' stack to show where the touch is. Sort of worked but (a) NO SOCKET SUPPORT ON IOS so I hacked it with HTTP, very inefficient and (b) my app crashes if I touch it a lot...

... hoping socket support on mobile is addressed soon
