UIButton method called on Iphone but not Ipad - iphone

I'm implementing an universal application. I implement a 'UIView' in the init method like this :
[self setWantsFullScreenLayout:YES];
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
Menu = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 320.0, 480.0)];
[Menu setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Fond_Menu.png"]]];
}
else
{
Menu = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 768, 1024)];
[Menu setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Fond_Menu_Ipad.png"]]];
}
[self.view addSubview:Menu];
[Menu release];
But when i add a 'UIButton', it works on Iphone simulator and not in Ipad one.
See, in 'ViewDidLoad' method :
Jouer = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
if ([[UIDevice currentDevice] userInterfaceIdiom] == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone)
{
[Jouer setFrame:CGRectMake(82.5, 240, 155, 35)];
[Jouer setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:NSLocalizedString(#"Bouton_Jouer", #"")] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[Jouer setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:NSLocalizedString(#"Bouton_Jouer_HIGH", #"")] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
}
else
{
[Jouer setFrame:CGRectMake(214, 505, 340, 77)];
[Jouer setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:NSLocalizedString(#"Bouton_Jouer_Ipad", #"")] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[Jouer setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:NSLocalizedString(#"Bouton_Jouer_HIGH_Ipad", #"")] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
}
[Jouer addTarget:self action:#selector(MyMethod)forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[Menu addSubview:Jouer];
How to fix it please ?

Make sure that your project is configured to build a "Universal" app. An iPhone app running on the iPad will still identify its UI idiom as "iPhone".

Check the images you're setting on the button - if one of the iPad ones is nil this could cause your button not to be displayed properly. If its not that, check your button actions implementation.

Fixed !
I forget to make a difference between iPhone and Ipad into the delegate, so the main window was in iPhone format =)

UIImagePickerController does not show edit screen

I'm playing around with a cameraOverLayView and encountered a weird behavior. Before presenting the UIImagePickerController, I set allowsEditing to YES. After the capture screen comes up, I tap on a button that triggers takePicture(). Instead of presenting the editing screen, the delegate method didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo() gets called right away. Can anyone help me figure out what I could be doing wrong? I pasted some of my code below...
Thanks!
- (BOOL)shouldStartCameraController {
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera] == NO) {
return NO;
}
CGSize screenSize = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size;
float overlayOffset = 0;
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPhone) {
if (screenSize.height > 480.0f) {
overlayOffset = 195;
} else {
overlayOffset = 103;
}
} else {

}

}
#pragma mark - UIBarButton Selectors
- (void)takePictureButtonPressed:(id)sender {
NSLog(#"takePictureButtonPressed...");
// TODO: take picture!
[self.imagePickerController takePicture];
}
Possible dublicate: How do I use [camera takePhoto] and edit using UIImagePicker - UIImagePickerController.allowsEditing = YES
According to takePicture: method in Apple documentation:
Use this method in conjunction with a custom overlay view to initiate the programmatic capture of a still image. This supports taking more than one picture without leaving the interface, but requires that you hide the default image picker controls.
Calling this method while an image is being captured has no effect. You must wait until the associated delegate object receives an imagePickerController:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo: message before you can capture another picture.
It seems that this approach (custom overlay) it is configured in order to be managed by yourself. Even if "allowsEditing = YES" the taken picture will be directly sent to imagePickerController:didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo:.
Based on that if we want to edit the taken picture using our custom user interface we should create an according custom edit screen for that purpose.

ZBar : custom button in Camera overlay view is not working

I'm using the ZBar SDK to read QR codes on iPhone, however I added a button in that view. But the button is not working! Even i tap the button it doesn't go to the action method of that button. Where is the problem actually? Thanks in advance for the help.
-(UIView *)setSettingsButton
{
UIView *view=[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 480)];
[view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
UIToolbar *myToolBar = [[UIToolbar alloc] init];
UIBarButtonItem *button=[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Settings" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:#selector(settingsAction)];
[myToolBar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:button,nil]];
settingsLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 37, 281, 77)];
[settingsLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Arial-BoldMT" size:16]];
[settingsLabel setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentCenter];
[settingsLabel setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[settingsLabel setTextColor:[UIColor blueColor]];
[settingsLabel setNumberOfLines:1];
[settingsLabel setText:#"For settings scan admin QR"];
[view addSubview:settingsLabel];
settingsLabel.hidden = YES;
[myToolBar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleDefault];
CGRect toolBarFrame;
toolBarFrame = CGRectMake(0, 436, 320, 44);
[myToolBar setFrame:toolBarFrame];
[view addSubview:myToolBar];
return view;
}
-(void)settingsAction
{
settingsLabel.hidden = NO;
}
I can't see where the problem is, but if it helps, I've customized zBar camera views without any problems.
The most likely answer is that a clear views is obscuring the tool-bar view. Here's a library for debugging UIViews: https://github.com/domesticcatsoftware/DCIntrospect
I had the same problem once. It was because my view was too big. Try to change the view's size like UIView *view=[[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 380)];, you'll see if it works.

Action Sheets On The iPad

On the iPhone I like how action sheets take up the entire width of the screen and you can choose the height of it (so I can include other views). Here is my entire method that creates the action view (you probably on need the las few lines though)...
-(void)createActionView {
UIActionSheet *actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:nil
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:nil
destructiveButtonTitle:nil
otherButtonTitles:#"Done",nil];
[actionSheet setActionSheetStyle:UIActionSheetStyleBlackTranslucent];
UIButton *downHoleScore = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
downHoleScore.frame = CGRectMake(93, 75, 35, 35);
[downHoleScore setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
downHoleScore.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
downHoleScore.tag=1;
[downHoleScore addTarget:self action:#selector(HoleScoreButtonTap:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[downHoleScore setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Left-Down-Arrow.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[actionSheet addSubview:downHoleScore];
UIButton *upHoleScore = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
upHoleScore.frame = CGRectMake(193, 76, 35, 35);
[upHoleScore setTitleColor:[UIColor blackColor] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
upHoleScore.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
upHoleScore.tag=2;
[upHoleScore addTarget:self action:#selector(HoleScoreButtonTap:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[upHoleScore setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Right-Up-Arrow.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[actionSheet addSubview:upHoleScore];
golferScoreLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(140, 70, 45, 45)];
golferScoreLabel.text = #"0";
golferScoreLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
golferScoreLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:#"ChalkDuster" size: 45.0];
golferScoreLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
golferScoreLabel.shadowColor = [UIColor grayColor];
golferScoreLabel.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(1,1);
golferScoreLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[actionSheet addSubview:golferScoreLabel];
CGRect pickerFrame = CGRectMake(0, 120, 0, 0);
UIPickerView *pickerView = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:pickerFrame];
pickerView.showsSelectionIndicator = YES;
pickerView.dataSource = self;
pickerView.delegate = self;
[actionSheet addSubview:pickerView];
[actionSheet showInView:[[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow]];
[actionSheet showFromRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 585) inView:self.view animated:YES];
}
How would I edit this to make it look more like an action view on the iPhone?
In this code...
[actionSheet showFromRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 585) inView:self.view animated:YES];
That above is where I think I am messing up how would I make this cover the entire bottom half of the screen on the iPad?
Read the docs on UIActionSheet. On iPad, they are presented in popovers.
If you want behavior like on the iPhone, I think you'll have to write your own actionSheet-like view and animations (which is really not that hard, it just takes a little time).
Anyway, presenting actionSheets on an iPad with the full width wouldn't be very good design anyway - you probably don't want buttons that are as wide as the whole screen. I would advise you to rethink your design.
But maybe you don't really want actionSheets. Maybe you only want that nice animation, to present some content of your own like that? That's certainly doable (see above), but then you have asked the wrong question.

button not displaying views

I have added multiple actions to one button
Play audiofile
Display array of views
Button is playing audiofile but not displaying views.
UIButton *playpauseButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
[playpauseButton addTarget:self action:#selector(playpauseAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[playpauseButton addTarget:self action:#selector(displayviewsAction:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
playpauseButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 50, 50);
[playpauseButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"play.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[playpauseButton setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"pause.png"] forState:UIControlStateSelected];
UIBarButtonItem *playpause = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:playpauseButton];
Play Pause Action coding
-(void)playpauseAction:(id)sender
{
if
([audioPlayer isPlaying]){
[sender setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"play.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[audioPlayer pause];
} else {
[sender setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"pause.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[audioPlayer play];
}
}
DisplayviewsAction coding
- (void)displayviewsAction:(id)sender
{
CGRect pageViewRect = self.view.bounds;
pageViewRect = CGRectInset(pageViewRect, 30.0, 30.0);
self.pageViewController.view.frame = pageViewRect;
// Configure the page view controller
UIPageViewController *pageViewController = [[[UIPageViewController alloc] initWithTransitionStyle:UIPageViewControllerTransitionStylePageCurl navigationOrientation:UIPageViewControllerNavigationOrientationHorizontal options:nil]autorelease];
NSArray *viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObject:pageViewController];
[self.pageViewController setViewControllers:viewControllers
direction:UIPageViewControllerNavigationDirectionForward
animated:NO
completion:nil];
[self.view addSubview:self.pageViewController.view];
}
Any advice what i m missing in the code or doing wrong.
Thanks for help.
Here are some minor corrections you should make - they may not all help with the problem, but you never know.
Add a completion block here:
[self.pageViewController setViewControllers:viewControllers
direction:UIPageViewControllerNavigationDirectionForward
animated:NO
completion:nil];
I don't remember for sure, but I think setViewControllers is done asynchronously - nothing cannot be added until after the completion handler is done. To add the block, you simply put a ^ and a block of code in (like a normal method):
[self.pageViewController setViewControllers:viewControllers
direction:UIPageViewControllerNavigationDirectionForward
animated:NO
completion:^{
// your code here.
}];
This may fix the problem, but I cannot be sure until I can get back to my computer.
You should also put an NSLog at the beginning of every method, at least until you are done debugging. That way, you always know what is being called and what isn't. If it is not called, try removing the autorelease from the pageViewController - it may be released because it isn't being used.
I think the issue is in displayviewsAction, try something more simple like:
- (void) displayviewsAction:(id)sender
{
UIView* testView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectInset(self.view.bounds, 30.0, 30.0)];
testView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
[self.view addSubview:testView];
[testView release];
}
That should help you narrow down the problem. Depending on what your final aim is you might not need all those view controllers; instead consider UIView's transitionFromView... for the animation effects.

iPhone-MPMediaPlayer disable seek forward button

I would like to remove or disable the seek forward button from the MPMediaPlayer.
I have tried to enumerate all the views but apparently I could not find this button.
Does anyone have any idea?
Thanks.
You could always provide a custom control panel, you can hide the default controls with
playerController.controlStyle = MPMovieControlStyleNone;
Then add a subview containing your interface and just link buttons to play/pause start/stop rewinding, and there's an open source implementation of the variable speed slider (OBSlider). You will also need to register for some MP notifications:
MPMovieDurationAvailableNotification
MPMoviePlayerLoadStateDidChangeNotification
MPMoviePlayerPlaybackDidFinishNotification
MPMoviePlayerPlaybackStateDidChangeNotification
The only way I found is to add a transparent button over the seek forward button.
Here is the code:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] init];
if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(self.interfaceOrientation))
[button setFrame:CGRectMake(535, 599, 90, 60)];
else
[button setFrame:CGRectMake(407, 855, 90, 60)];
[button setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
[button setAlpha:0.7];
[button setTag:1200];
[self.moviePlayer.view addSubview:button];
[button release];
}
- (void)willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration
{
if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(toInterfaceOrientation))
{
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)[self.moviePlayer.view viewWithTag:1200];
[button setFrame:CGRectMake(535, 599, 90, 60)];
}
else
{
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)[self.moviePlayer.view viewWithTag:1200];
[button setFrame:CGRectMake(407, 855, 90, 60)];
}
}
This is for IPAD ONLY! If you would like to do the same on iPhone, please change the position of the transparent button.
