So I've implemented an iPad application it has a UISplitView implemented. i'm using the slide gesture to show the popover controller instead of a bar button. the problem is that by default the popover slides in from left I want the slider to move in from the right. I've tried finding a solution to this but couldn't find anything yet so I thought i better ask this myself and see if its even possible.
I know this exists: http://mattgemmell.com/2010/07/31/mgsplitviewcontroller-for-ipad/
but im not too keen on using a 3rd party library.
If you know any possible solution or a work around please let me know. Thanks in advance.
Guess theres no other way but to use a custom made uisplitview... In the end i had to re-design my whole app and this time I had to create a custom UISplitViewController from a scratch.
Apple should be a little more flexible with their publically

Since I am using Xcode 11 I am having problems with the Safe Area. My App is an ArKit- App that uses an ARSCNView. after upgrading to Xcode 11 the safe Are doesn't allow me to display it full screen anymore. Actually all the views in all ViewControllers can't be displayed in full screen. I really don't know where to start. Did anyone experience this kind of behavior?
Thanks!
Edit:
I unchecked all the necessary boxes I hope. The behavior I still get is this:
Storyboard Main
Inspector
Live View
There seems to be a view underneath. But I never added one and the inspector doesn't show. This changed with xcode11.
I just found out what happened to my ViewControllers. I am checking for internet connection with a LaunchViewController. The segue from this controller to the next one did not specify "full screen". I still don't know why I have to explicitly tell the segue to do so in Xcode 11. But in the end that solved my problem.
Thank you
The Safe Area is used as a reference for constraints for views and objects that you want the user to be able to interact with. It is used as a guide during the layout of objects on the screen. If you want to take advantage of the entire screen, constrain your views to the superview (basically the main view of the view controller). This is handy for displaying things like backgrounds on the entire view. Take a look at Apple's human interface guidelines for more info:

I am trying to develop an application whose view closely matches with groupon app. User should be able to swipe on the screen and the entire screen changes with top pointer pointing to different tool bar entity.
Any pointer of how to go about it?
Take a look at UIScrollView Reference and PageControl Reference from Apple Guides
Hope it helps,

Looks like a pagecontrol+scrollerview
The complex part is making the toolbar elements move when you are changing the page at a different speed
I would like to customize the animation to display a uipopovercontroller so that it can slide in from right to left when it appears. I basically would like to simulate the menu you can see in Flipboard. Is there a way to customize the animation without having to write a popovercontroller? It seems that the default behavior has the slide in functionality but it is too fast to see it happening. I didn't find any property where i can set a transition style.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I'm afraid that isn't a popover that the Flipboard app is using. It's most likely another UIView or UIViewController layered on top of the current view. Much like the 'About' menu in Angry Birds. Animating UIPopovers is also not going to be very easy, as they were never built for customization (or to be leak proof, or to even be very good in the first place). My advice, create your own. (I love github, so so much).

SplitView like Facebook app on iPhone
another break away .net developer here now trying to get used to the world of IOS.
I like the layout of the new Facebook iPhone app (October 2011), and want to implement something similar in an app I am doing. I know that the UISplitterControl is not available on iPhone but Facebook seem to have pulled a little magic to make it appear so on their new app.
In Facebook's implementation it looks to me that they have used a UINavigationController which slides to the right by x when the NavigationBar icon is tapped thus exposing a view underneath with the menu items.
Would appreciate if someone could help me work this out as the solution would also be a great learning curve.
I've tried setting a UINavigationController as the AppDelegate window root view controller, then using initwithframe to load a custom view which includes the menu items as a subview hidden behind the UINavigationcontroller root view. Then when the UINavgationController menu item button is clicked slide the NavigationController to the right thus exposing the view underneath with menu items.This presents two problems, first that the subview positioning doesn't work and also how can I slide the actual UINavigationController to the right to expose the menu view underneath.
Please help!
Might also want to check out my implementation on Github. It's specifically designed to resemble Facebook's implementation as much as possible (from a technical point of view). Also it leverages iOS 5's new UIViewController-Containment features, which most others don't. Thus it works flawlessly in both landscape and portrait modes. It's universal of course and highly flexible. One class only. The way you use it is similar to any other Apple made controller.
there is a similar post here: SplitView like Facebook app on iPhone.

I'm having exactly the same question, my guess is that the "SplitView" is actually more likely a modal view that takes up only part of the screen. I haven't had the time to try it just yet but the following post might give some hint on how this can be done:

I created a component that mimics the behavior of the Facebook slide out menu. It is available on github.
Here is link from stack overflow where people have discussed on same topic.

SplitView like Facebook app on iPhone
I'm trying to get started with an iPhone application, I had a look around at other questions but i'm still sorta stuck so hopefully someone can help...
First thing is I'm totally confused with the whole view concept, I'm more used to visual studio so I'm going to use the term 'form' to describe what I have in my head.
I want to achieve a home screen in an application with say 9 icons (much like the iphone home screen) which each lead to a different 'form'. Each form may have a different function so say one might be a simple calculator, one might play a video etc.
How do I do this, its destroying my soul trying to do something so simple... If you guys even have any links to get me on the right track it would be greatly appreciated
I suggest you take a look at the Stanford iPhone Programming Course. If you don't have the time to look through it all, I reccommend at least Lectures 5 and 6 about Views and ViewControllers. The slides are quite instructive and they come with video presentations that should help you get on your way in about an hour.
Apple's samples are a great place to start. There are some simple ones that can show you how views and view controllers work.
Also, in Xcode, when you create a new iPhone app template, that template usually has enough code to display a view, and sometimes a flip-side view or more. Sometimes, you should stop reading, and do.
I had the same weird learning curve as you, as things don't initially seem to make sense but they do - and once you've got your head round them they make perfect sense trust me!
Your 'forms' are viewControllers in this M-V-C land, they control all the 'view' (which are controls or any object which can be seen) within them. Normally they are loaded from a Nib (design from the interface builder), but don't have to be.
The way I would go about your problem is to use a navigationController as the base to handle all of your view controllers.
A navigation controller needs a rootviewcontroller to start so this will be your desktop Viewcontroller. I'm not sure how you are planning to populate this but all the icons will need to be stored in some kind of array. I suggest you use a simple UIButton. When then button is pressed you then alloc and init and push the required view controller.
