Does SpriteBuilder override image override from "auto" or from the right bigger resolution?

Question

Regarding this question and the following image:

I know that all images for tablet, phonehd and phone will be taken from "auto" and then "downscaled" if I set it up like that.

But for example, if I override the phonehd image, will phone image downscale from the "auto", or from phonehd?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

If you override an image for a specific resolution, it will only apply to that specific resolution and device type.

Example: If you were to assign an "egg" image to the tablet resolution, the egg would only appear on non-Retina tablet (ie iPad) devices. All others would show the metal ball pictured above.
