UITextField does not show any input text when added in UIAlertView

Hi, This seems to only occur with the new iOS 4 SDK. When I add a UITextField inside an UIAlertView, whenever I input any text inside the resulting popup, no text will show inside the TextField, even though I will be able to get the inputted text from the textField afterwards. This behavior does not happen when compiling against the old...

UIAlertView button tagging

Hey guys, Is there a way I can add a .tag to an UIAlertView button? Reason being, I'm adding a few dynamic buttons to the alert that will sometimes be in the alert and sometimes not.

Why releasing an UIAlertView just afer showing it whereas it is not a blocking method ?

Hi, I have been studying how to display a modal view with UIAlertView for a few hours and I understood that showing it does not "block" the code (the modal window is displayed and the program keeps running - we must use delegate to catch the selected actions on this modal window). Then I studied several examples and noticed that every e...

How does [UIAlertView show] work?

I want to do something similar to UIAlertView, ie - without reference to any UIView or UIViewController, present a UIViewController on top of all windows using presentModalViewController. Looking at the documentation I can't find a way in which this is possible! In OS4, there is something like this: UIWindow *window = [UIApplication s...

Weird SIGABRT (unrecognized selector sent to instance) when using UIAlertView

I've been bashing my head in with this one for the past half hour, so I thought I'd ask my friends from Stack Overflow for some wisdom. I've got a tab bar application with a view controller at the root, and passing off the views to other xibs. I created a custom XIB and added its view controller class (MoreViewController) as an External...

UIAlertView rotating interface with keyboard visible

I have a UIAlertView that has a text field. So when it shows up the keyboard shows up too. To get the alert view in a better place I set a transformation to it: CGAffineTransform myTransform = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0.0, 180); [alert setTransform:myTransform]; This works fine, as long as the interface orientation does not ch...

Editable, customizable UITextView in UIAlertView

EDIT: Not really a problem, I did a typo. It actually works just fine :) Original question: Hey. I'm trying to place a UITextView in or on top of an UIAlertView. I know that the UIAlertView automatically uses a UITextView if message of the alert is too long, but I want it to always be an UITextView, and I want it to be editable and ...

Any non-private API alternative for this?

My app was recently rejected due to using a private API (addTextField: method for UIAlertView, which is quite useful, might I add). Is there any non-private alternative to UIAlertView's undocumented addTextFieldWithValue:label:? Thanks SO much in advance! ...

Problem while subclassing UIAlertView and using subclass as the delegate.

Hi I'm having a little problem. I subclass'd UIAlertView and I named it UIDisclaimerAlertView. So far so good, the subclass is working fine. But now I wanted to use this very class as its own delegate. So in my subclass I used : self.delegate = self; I did this because I wanted it all in the same class file. Now the problem I'm facing...

UIView to cover iPhone status/carrier bar

I am attempting to create a UIView (and associated UIViewController) which mimic the behaviour of UIAlertView. Given my requirements it seemed much neater to create my own implementation from scratch than attempt to subclass and modify UIAlertView. In order to do this I am getting a reference to the app delegate and then adding the UIVie...
