How can I change the Interface Builder background? I find really annoying that white background of the storyboard editor. Is it possible to change it?
It is not possible to change the storyboard editors background color.
Sorry, :(
It's bad because you don't see transparency :/
I hope apple change that soon.

I'm trying to build an application that is launched has a transparent background, in practice, showing only the objects in view (buttons, labels etc etc) but not the background so you can see the background the user's home.
In the example file you can see the purple square image at the center of the screen, in theory should be a normal UIView with a picture in the center but does not see the background of UIWindow/UIView.
Is possible to realize such a thing? Can anyone help me?
thanks
No. It's not possible using the official SDK. I'm interested to know why you would want to do this?
It might be possible, try setting the window background color to clear, as well as the view controller's view background color.
I say it might be possible because I've seen my home screen while using some apps, for example, the Facebook app sometimes shows it during a transition (it might be a bug on either Facebook or the OS).
Anyway, I'm pretty sure that kind of app would be rejected from the App Store, so be advised.
I am trying to add a UIWindow through interface builder.
Whenever i drag a window from the library, its default size is 320x480
As I am designing an app for iPad, I want this to be 768x1024
The values are greyed out but changes when resizing with the help of mouse.
Any one had this Issue before?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
You should use UIViews instead of UIWindows.
Edit: Sorry, didn't read correctly. Here my answer after reading carefully: Is the device set to iPad in the target section? Did you try to delete the xib and add a new MainWindow.xib.
I want to customize default UIWindow. My aim is that the first window should be of size 320,100 so when user launches the application then he will just see window of size 320width and 100height (0,200,320,100) while remaining screen will be transparent and user will see other applications through transparent screen.
please help me out.
This is just not possible! Read some introduction stuff. Search for sandboxing for the reason why this does not work.
Hi All I wont to ask one more question !!!
I search through internet and cant find answer on my question maybe somebody here can help me to find answer for my question. In my iPhone application i want settings bar and I want to insert in my settings "Brightness" when user change "Brightness" setting the iPhone screen brightness must be changed !!! Who can tell me how can I do this !!!
This is not possible using the current SDK.
I've seen one or two apps that simulate changing the brightness by overlaying a view and modifying the opacity to make it darker.
Obviously there's no real way to make it brighter.
I have developed a project that has a single view. Now I want the view to be transparant so that I can see the iPhone menu. Is this possible and if so, how?
Thanks.
No, you can't see the springboard in your apps.
It is NOT possible to do that. You can't make the whole app transparent so that you see the springboard icons.
Of course, you could set a homescreen screenshot as background image in your app. But, as already said, it's not possible to do that what you want.
