I want to add more than two UIBarButtonItems using the XIB. I know how to do this programatically. But shouldn't it be possible via the XIB as well? Not worrying about the ascetic of the app. Just want to know if its feasible.
You have to add the UIBarButtons in an the XIB and show them like this.
Yes you can , after trying ....
EDIT :
Please see the following method ,
In a UINavigation Object you can add only two bar buttons via nib:
Left Bar button and Right bar button.
You cannot add any Flexible Space Bar Button Item.
Simply add buttons with flexible space in between them, more than 4 will really look bad but you can give a try.

I want create a view with a line of UIButtons at the top of the view. While user selects each button he/she should be able to switch between the views.
I tried it by adding the view one above the other in .xib and setting the view.hidden = NO and view.hidden = YES. But I know this is not the proper way to implement this.
Can you experts please suggest a good way to implement this scenario?
You can use UITabBar. But this will not give you two lines of tabs, I guess. If you are satisfied with one line of tab and other tab will be hidden like the old iPod application in iPhone, then UITabBar is an option.
I am using a UITabBarController where i want to load a custom colorful image to the respective TabBar. I want to customize the font size,color and type of the Text for the UITabBar item. I have tried out many possibilities by using image property for the tabBar and tried to create a imageview and adding it as an subview to the tabBar. Can someone please provide any alternative to this problem?
The only way for this is implementing your own custom tab bar controller. You can find many tutorial on the web if you google "custom tab bar". This is one for iOS 5. And here, you can find another.
I want to create a top bar with 5 labels. each label will show viewcontroller.
Can I create tabbar, add 5 viewcontroller, hide the tabbar, and each time press the top bar label, it will hide/show the correct viewcontroller through the tabbar functionality ?
if I'm wrong with this approach what do you recommend for this requierment ?
Thanks.
As far as I understand you, you need to use tabBarController.selectedIndex = (int)index; to change the selected tab. Please correct me if i misunderstand you
I want to put button which should be displayed on my all view.
The way we are implementing Tab Bar. I want to implement buttons.
Where should I put that button ? And where should I give its functionality ?
Create your button on main window (i.e. UIWindow) and keep front always after when you loading view.
How many views are we talking about?
If we're just talking about a few views, it probably makes sense to just include similar-looking buttons on each view. If we're talking about many views, then you'll probably want to look at other options.
One solution would be to create a subclass of UIViewController that sets up the button and contains the button's action. The controllers for each view would then be subclasses of that class, so that each inherits the button and action.
Does anybody know how to rename the "More" tabBarItem?
In other words: How to access to this object?
Better you should use custom image and title for this, you should not look to modify the system items.
