I have an iphone app that has one view that needs to fetch a lot of data off of a variety of internet sites. Therefore, the amount of time required for it to load is unacceptable. I was wondering if there is any way to load the view during the 'applicationDidFinishLaunching' method so the delay is at the startup of the app instead of m...
Hi, is there any Possibility to create a image out of a UIView? Thanks, Andreas ...
I'm curious if it's possible to create an application according to window-based pattern, add UILabel, create a new class, and to be able to change UILabel's value from this new class. After creating all that files we will have: NewApplicationDelegate.h, .m; Newclass.h, .m; MainWindow.xib. The IBOutlet in this case must be added to...

In a view containing several subviews, one of the subviews should remain a fixed, non-zero distance from the top and bottom of the superview.

I'm a bit confused about the MVC paradigm in relation to iPhone development. Currently, I'm splitting the app into: Model (FooModel.h, FooModel.m) View (FooView.xib) Controller (FooController.h, FooController.m) But should I instead use for the View a subclass of UIView (FooView.h, FooView.m)..? It's just a simple game app. ...

How can I tell the player (in the first view) what should be played? One possibility would be to send a notification and include the MPMediaItemCol...

However, when I touch across the screen, the interface underneath is still running. What is the best method for intercepting the touch events so they don't pass through? I tried to add a custom UIButton the s...
I've got several UIViews that have a layer class of CATiledLayer because they need to be zoomed using UIScrollViews. I use Quartz to render some PDF pages inside said UIViews. Everything is fine until I try to animate said views frames on page rotation. The animation is fine, the contents of the view gets scaled quickly and cheaply to m...

I'd like to have a toolbar at the bottom with a couple of buttons and a UISegmentedControl with two segments: "Map" and "Table". (The layout is similar to the Google Maps app that ships with the iPhone.) How can I keep the same toolbar while presenting either the ...
I am a newbie in iphone dev, and I am confused by UIViewController. most program start with a view controller, but I don't know why we need it. ViewController has a view, but you cannot use the drawRect medthod. So why not just use View instead of ViewController in places like UIWindow and so on? I learned that to initialize a View, yo...
I have a UIButton and a UIView. The View sits above the button, and is larger than the button in size. The view itself is what I want to have accept the touch events, and I'd like to forward them to the button, so that all the normal button visual changes on touch happen. I can't seem to make this work-- my UIView implements touchesBeg...

If I want to use a custom view object with my view controller, instead of just using the one that's initialized by default, can I just assign it to the view controller's View property. For example, is the following the correct/safe approach? public class MyView : UIView { } public class MyController : UIViewController { // Construc...
