Dynamic Image resolution

Getting Started Newbie Questions
#1

Hi Corona Developers !!!

i have been reading several forums topics and viewing some sample files in corona have not yet been able to figure out what works the best for image resolution setting and to control the memory allocation.

As off some of them advice to use image suffix in “config.lua” and to use 2 to 3 different kinda resolution-ed images.
and i read Carlos mentioning to use Transform Boolean while adding a image on stage.

[lua] image = display.newImage(“image1.png”,0,0,true) [/lua]

The fourth parameter is the transformation Boolean which sets and makes it work over all device ?

can you please take me out of confusion and advice the best performing method

One thing that took me a while to realize is that display.newImage() doesn’t work with dynamic image resolution. There is a separate command display.newImageRect() [import]uid: 12108 topic_id: 8450 reply_id: 30303[/import]

yeah JHK even i was kinda shocked when i saw this in the sample files because i was in a illusion that it works just fine with
display.newImage

thats what my question is which one to use for better performance?
