What should image sizes be at @1x, @2x and @3x in Xcode?

For example, I have a 100*100 size imageview or button, and I want to set its image or backgroundImage with a local .png file. Based on my understanding, I need to create 3 sets of images, i.e. 100*100 for @1x, 200*200 for @2x, 300*300 for @3x. I am not sure if my understanding is correct or not, can anyone help?

According to my understanding, if the image size is 100 * 100

@1x -> 100 * 100

@2x -> 200 * 200

@3x -> 300 * 300

There is something to understand. By creating 2x and 3x images, you can't expect exact same layout from each iPhone screen. The layout will be different from screen to screen. 1x, 2x and 3x image sizes dealing with only the pixel density of the screen.

Suppose you have an image which is 320 * 70 and you are creating

@1x -> 320 * 70

@2x -> 640 * 140

@3x -> 960 * 210

This will be your output in different screens.

For @3x image increase @1x image size by 3 times!

e.g.

15 x 15 = @1x

30 x 30 = @2x

45 x 45 = @3x

OR

100 x 100 = @1x

200 x 200 = @2x

300 x 300 = @3x

OR

15 x 10 = @1x

30 x 20 = @2x

45 x 30 = @3x

Yes, your understanding is correct.

A standard resolution image has a scale factor of 1.0 and is referred to as an @1x image. High resolution images have a scale factor of 2.0 or 3.0 and are referred to as @2x and @3x images. Suppose you have a standard resolution @1x image that’s 100px × 100px, for example. The @2x version of this image would be 200px × 200px. The @3x version would be 300px × 300px.

Yes, you are right. But if you are using Assets you can do it all in one image with three slots for it
