full screen zoom pan use UIScrollView in iphone - iphone

I have follow a sample code, for create a simple image view zoom/pan page, but it will have the navigationController to back to main page. I have set the navigationBar to alpha to 0.3. But below the navigationBar, I can not see the image content. I have research the reseaon, the frame and bound is 320*480. Also in the xib file, change the "Status Bar" to None. It does not work.
How can I maek the image view full screen like the native photo app. THx.

just provide a new tapguesture which provide user a facility to hide navigation bar and again on tap the bar is shown again

How to make tableview's content displayed under a transparent navigation bar?

How to make tableview's content displayed under a transparent navigation bar?
Like this:In "Photos" app, albums displayed under navigation bar.
Special thanks
If you use _rootNavigationController.navigationBar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackTranslucent; then set correct tableview frame thats it. If you are in xib dont forget to simulate the translucent navigation bar.
One way I have found to accomplish this is by shifting your tableview's superview up to have the origin at {0, 0}. However after researching more several people have said altering the superview (UIViewControllerWrapperView) is a bad idea. However I also have not found any information on why just changing the frame would create problems. I am shifting the superview right now and haven't found any problems related to it yet.
Might be you can set it like this:
[navigationBar setAlpha:0.5f];
For making the navigation bar transparent alone, you can check this post, How to make a Navigation bar transparent and fade out like in the photo app in the iPhone
Also check this How to set the transparency color for Toolbar and Navigation bar using MonoTouch?
I am not sure whether you can add the table view behind the navigation bar. You might have to add it as a subview of self.parentViewController.view.
Another way to do this is by hiding navigation bar and using a transparent tool bar in place of that. This can be added on top of the current view. The only problem is with the back button. You might have to use custom button for that.

Why do my UIImageviews get resized/dimmed when using UINavigation/UITabbar controller

I have an app with a primary view that has a UITabBarController with 5 tabs. Each tab is a UINavigationController.
In interface builder, I'm customizing the background of each page by dragging a UIImageView and setting it fullscreen. The image I'm setting to the view is 640x960. I am setting it to be Aspect Fill.
However, what I've noticed is that it is not where I would expect it to be. When navigating between by tabs, the image seems to be shifted down from where it should be.
Also, when pushing a new view to the navigation controller, the background of this new view isn't offset in the same way as the tabbar one, and it is also slightly dimmed.
How can I set my UIImageViews on each page to be aspect correct and fill the screen 1:1? Also, how does one disable the dimming when pushing a view to the navigation controller?
Thanks for any tips, and apologies if this is covered in another thread, I couldn't find an answer searching the site.
Assuming that you are using the IB to setup your views, you should select navbar/tabbar options to reflect what will be on the actual page. That should place your image correctly. I would also recommend that you make both a low res and hi res version of your background images -- 320x480 and 640x960. Of course, your size may need to be adjusted (reduced) for the navbar and/or tabbar which will leave less than 960 px of vertical height -- probably more like 920px if you are in portrait mode. Then you add #2x to the base name of the hi res version, this would account for older iPhone screens.
Once you have the image placed correctly, resizing should be unnecessary. You can have the image automatically resize width and height using the little arrows on the layout page -- that's a bit hard to describe. It can also be done in code -- if you still need that I can provide a sample.
Maybe you need to set all AutoresizingMask in order to resize the UIImageView properly on each view. And to main aspect ratio u should use either AspectFill or AspectFit on the contentMode.

How to show status bar on top of custom camera overlay?

I have this critical issue with showing top statusbar on the custom camera overlay which seems impossible for me at the moment. I posted the same question to Apple dev forum but did not get any response for some time now.
In my application, I have a custom overlay view set as the overlay to the UIImagePickerController. At the bottom of the custom overlay view (this is a UIViewController), I have put a toolbar that enables user to click on toolbar items. Since the top statusbar is not shown when the camera opens up, the whole screen get pushed upwards and makes a narrow white color gap between the bottom of the screen and the bottom tool bar.
I am not aware of how to resolve this issue, but I think if we can show the top status bar on the top of the camera then this will be automatically get resolved. Thanks for any answers.
Had a similar problem a while back and all I did was resize my view. Why not try that and see if it works.
If that doesn't work then showing the status bar should be
[[UIApplication sharedApplication] setStatusBarHidden:NO];
Thanks for the tip domino, I found how it should be done from this thread and resize the main uiview to 320x480 instead of default 320x460. Hope this will help someone else. Thanks.
Can't resize UIView in IB

Tab views on iPad not resizing

My view doesn't stretch to fit the current orientation!
I am creating a tab bar application. I replicated the sample one that you create when you "create a new tab bar application". Everything works except when I change the orientation of the iPad it rotates the view, the tab bar stretches out on the bottom, but the view doesn't resize. Basically if you start in landscape then rotate to portrait, it rotates but the view is still landscape shape even though it rotates.
My tab bar has two tabs (just like the sample application) and so I compared mine against the sample which works property by property. One difference is I noticed my FirstView in IB under the resizing area doesn't show the resize arrows left/right up/down. In other words it isn't marked to auto fill its container. The sample's FirstView and SecondView DO have these arrows. But I can't turn them on!
I even tried creating a fresh new view but I still can't press these arrows on. what am I doing wrong here?'
Thanks a lot.
The solution is this:
self.view.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight;
Do this in viewDidLoad. There must be a bug in IB.
Another answer is turning off any simulated tabbars, nav bars, or status bars on the view in Interface Builder. Go into the autosizing area and turn on the auto grow arrows. Then turn back on the simulated user elements.

Resized XIB still full size

Building an iPad app. I have a button on my main view that I want to launch a help window. The help window is fairly involved and has its own xib/controller. I resized the help window's XIB and saved it. I instantiated it and added it to the application controller's views as a modal. For some reason this window is still taking up the entire screen.
What I really want to do is have a "view" that's maybe 70% of the width and height that lays over the normal view as a modal. How is this accomplished normally? I want it to require that they hit a button to close it.
Thanks
You could also try placing your UIView into another UIView that actually takes up the entire screen, but has a backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor].
Modal view controllers are really intended to take up the entire screen, as Apple's description states "Modal view controllers are a tool that you have at your disposal for displaying a new screen’s worth of content" (http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/featuredarticles/ViewControllerPGforiPhoneOS/ModalViewControllers/ModalViewControllers.html).
