I'm trying to make a similar UI. Tell me how you can implement split custom buttons as shown on the screen
I understand that ordinary containers can not do here. We need something more custom.

This is a newbie question so forgive me but I'm confused.
Suppose, as a simple example, that I wish to have a GUI that has a button to add some component (say a file chooser widget) to the interface as many times as I want. (and maybe another button to remove the last if you wish to think more pragmatically). How would I design such a thing using glade? Is there any way to have the buttons "working" inside glade itself?
My guess is that I can only design the default interface and then I am manually responsible for the callbacks that will add and remove components. My GUI will however be static from within glade so I can only test it during runtime. Is that the basic idea?
You're correct, there is no way to test the callbacks in glade itself and you can only test it during runtime.
I wanna customize cells in MonoTouch.Dialog.
For example make custom background in BoolElement and make custom image for this small bool thing that can be on or off, sorry forgot the name, or make custom disclosure indicator image in StringElement.
Is there simple way to do this without making own custom elements?
In some cases you'll need to create custom Element-derived types to customize cells. In other cases you will be able to add some custom code inside your application. FWIW I think it's cleaner to create your own everytime.
You can find a lot of examples in the Sample application that is available on github along with MonoTouch.Dialog (that includes having a custom background and totally owner-drawn elements).
There are also several questions (with answers) about common MonoTouch.Dialog customizations here on stackoverflow. Click on the monotouch.dialog tag and read them.
If you get stuck on a particular customization then don't hesitate to ask for help.
Can anybody please tell me how they have implemented the below thing whick looks to me like a TabBar but has something different from a simple tabbar.
The thing having "Offer" and "Wall", when each one is clicked, presents a different view.
Any sample code will be appreciated
Its a custom UIButton.
EDIT: What UI element might this be? (Custom tab-bar?). I had asked the same question a few weeks ago. There are two good answers there.
And google up for custom UIButton. You can find a few samples on your search
Its a custom view. You can always implement this kind of thing by using images. Say you have 2 different images. In one image offer is selected, and in another wall is selected. And you are using an image view to show them. An invisible button is placed in proper place. After tapping the button you can set the right image. And also if the images are not overlapping then you can use custom button.
I have a table view in which i am reordering my cells
Now the issue is that the client doesn't like the icon of the reorder (i.e. 3 horizontal lines)
Is there any way you can help out.
First of all I want to know Is it possible at all?
You cannot change the standard icon. But you should be able to use a custom button and start/end editing mode programmatically (haven't tested this).
If it isn't a very custom UI at all, tell him that messing with standard icons/behavior is the best way to make users frustrated.
I have a project in which I need a way to display essentially a list of tabs, each with their own content pages, down the left side of the page. I'm using TabLayoutPanels elsewhere to good effect, but after looking at how they are constructed it seems like it would be quite a bit of work to undo Google's carefully constructed layout and get it to work in any other orientation than top-aligned.
This doesn't seem like it would be an uncommon layout, so does anyone know of a successful implementation of this kind of container?
Best you can do is use DeckPanel, and make your custom tab controls to switch visible widget in that DeckPanel.
