Hello All:
What is the difference between addSubview and insertSubView methods when a view is added programmatically?
Thanks

A:
Using insertSubView: you can specify the index, which determines z-order of views. A view with a higher index lies above those with lower indices.

Aside from the specific difference I described in my answer, there is none.

A:
I don't think there is a difference. addSubview: is simple a convenient method for
[view insertSubview:aView atIndex:[view.subviews count]]

A:
The only difference is in where the view is added: whether it is the frontmost view (addSubview:), or it is before the 5th subview, (insertSubview:atIndex:) or if it is immediately behind another subview (insertSubview:aboveSubview:).
