iPhone How to set the top position = 0 after setStatusBarHidden:Yes ?

Question

Dear all,

I found that after setting the

[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:YES animated:NO]

at viewDidLoad, then if I want to align an image to the top, I will need to set its position as .y = -20;

Is there anyway to make the y coordinate of the "top position" to "0" ? or is it doomed to be -20 after hidding the status bar?

Thanks for reading.

Answer 1

I imagine you should add a UIStatusBarHidden item to the Info.plist if you want the status bar to be removed from start.

You also could look into setting the Autosizing to resize vertical (and horizontal)

See under Add A Text View here for example of what to click on in InterfaceBuilder

Quote:

Click the horizontal and vertical lines in the internal box so that they become solid red lines. The animated preview shows that the text view's internal size will grow and shrink with the window.

Check to make sure the size of your root view in your nib is properly set to 480x320. Some of the template project create those at 460x320 to account for the status bar. If you load a view that span full screen and the status bar is hidden, it should just work and you shouldn't need to do anything special at all.

I had a similar problem at one point and this bit of code fixed it for me:

[viewController.view setFrame: [viewController.view bounds]];

THANK YOU!!!!

I have been trying to figure this out for hours – a wrong size in the nib was the key to my issue!
