draw button as combobox with ios - iphone

I'm attempting to override the onDraw method of a button because I want to create a different styled button. I want to create a button like combobox with iOS SDK. I've already found source code, but it will not work.

Try this for combo box in ios.
IosCombo

Depending on how many entries you're trying to choose from, you might want to look at UISegmentedControl. It's like a radial button, where you can select one "active" option (leaving one or more "inactive" options). It gets cluttered and it becomes hard for the user to select the option they want if you have a lot of different options though.

Making a drop down list using swift3

I am new to Xcode and the Swift3 language, so can anyone please direct me on how to implement the drop down list in swift3?When I click uibutton open dropdown list.i use three type of button first one is "country" second "city" and third "locality".
I think the best way to implement a dropdown list in iOS is to use a UITableView. In your example you could create one programmatically and add it to the right place on the screen.
Or have one hidden and bring it from / make it visible when tapping the button.
One think about that though, it is not the best UX/UI to have drop down menus in an iOS app. Apple provides a lot of native elements that would do a similar job.
Example 1: Use a modal that has a UITableView (fullscreen or part of the screen) and make it disappear on selection.
Example 2: Use a UIPickerView
In case you still want to stay with that design use something like

I bet if you do a quick googling you'll find more libraries that do something similar

Combobox in automatically closing popup

I'm new to React Native and want help with form making. I need a combobox, where a user should choose an option from several. When user clicks the combobox component, I want options in something like a popup on screen without going to another page, and once the option is chosen the popup or whatever automatically closes.
I created a standard combobox to select the option, but I want to show options in a popup with closure when the option has been chosen.
Is there anyone can help me?
You can use the Picker component.
Also check this library - it wrap native pickers. I believe you will get a popup picker in Android and a bottom-modal picker in iOS (just like native)
Oh, almost 2 years since you asked this question. But, maybe there are others who come up to this thread & wants to know the other option to display combobox like popup. This react-native-material-dropdown might be great for you. Try it !

Predefined Add Dialog not working as expected in Lightswitch 2012

I've created a query to use in an AutoCompleteBox and it works as expected when the user select the AutoCompleteBox in the grid as shown in the picture below
However if the user click the plus button to add a new record using the predefined Add Dialog then the query and the AutoCompleteBox's format doesn't work as shown in the picture below
Why is this happening and how I can fix that?
Thanks
I haven't yet found a way to edit the default Add New dialog.
Instead, make a new screen, select the "New Data Screen" template, and link it to your entity data. You can customize the screen to fit your needs, even make it a Modal Window by changing the Control Type in the screen properties. Once you have the screen set up the way you want, go back to your grid screen, and double click on the Add... command in the Command Bar of your grid, to edit the AddAndEditNew_Execute code. In that method, call your custom screen.
So, as I got to thinking about this some more, I came back to the thought I had when I tried to do this a few months ago. There has to be a better way, so I Googled it again.
This time, I found something. He's using an old version of Lightswitch, but I've successfully applied his technique in my application built in Lightswitch 2012.

How to make a combobox in iphone

I am trying to make a combobox in ios following this link http://www.codeproject.com/KB/iPhone/iphonecombobox.aspx.
But the click event (that shows the picker) seems to work sometimes and sometimes not. It looks like sometimes it just works in some regions of the control and not others.
Any idea of what is wrong?
It's kind of hacky, but you can add a hidden UIControl around the region of the ComboBox and then wire it up to the same IBAction or void that the existing ComboBox uses. For example, -(IBAction) showPicker could be the action of a new UIControl that you add right around the region.
For some reason, the answer was using the textfield and image directly to the page instead of creating a view for the control and using that view N times.
I created a combobox api for iOS, hope this could be of any help: http://www.chupamobile.com/products/details/365/ZComboBox/

GWT Customize CellList Multi-Selection Model for Mobile Devices

I have an application, that uses the MultiSelectionModel, and it works great, but I need the site I'm developing to work on mobile devices, and so I can't use the keyboard to assist in selecting the elements (since it doesn't exist). EX: On the desktop I just hold ctrl and click on all the element that I want to select.
So on the mobile device, I would like to modify the default behavior of the MultiSelectionModel so that when you click on a CellList item, it toggles the selection state of that item.
I have looked through the source for it and cannot see anyway to implement the behavior that I need. (Mobile MultiSelection).
Whether you add a checkbox column or not, you'll have to add a cell preview handler. The easiest way to define one is to use DefaultSelectionEventManager, either using a checkbox manager in combination with a checkbox column, or creating a custom one (you'd map a click event into a toggle action).
You can see it used, the checkbox variant, in the GWT Showcase; it uses the setSelectionModel overload with two arguments to add the CellPreviewEvent.Handler at the same time.
Just adding an extra checkbox column would be a more user friendly solution.
