the default background color is white and I want to change it to an image
I have tried this:
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"background.png"]];
but the background turn black, the image is not at the background. I don't know why.
by the way if I have more than 1 image in one view, how to set their priority of display?
UIImageView *backgroundView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"imageone"]];
backgroundView.frame = self.view.bounds;
[[self view] addSubview:backgroundView];
Try this out, this is calling self.view.bounds for the frame instead of self.view.frame for frame. I just tested it and it works perfectly.
EDIT: If all you're looking for is to send the image to the back of the stack, you can do the following and select send to back.
Code for you :
UIImageView *myImage = [[[UIImageView alloc]initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"background.png"]]autorelease];
myImage.frame = self.view.frame;
[self.view addSubview:myImage];
You should to use a UIImageView and its frame is uiview's frame.

Could any one help me i want to add same image multiple times horizontally with same height and width. Important thing is i am creating image view dynamically i want to use same image view for all images! This is image i want to make horizontally like this but only one row needed like this.
You could achieve this by using stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:
UIImage *backgroundImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"SheetBackground.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.5 topCapHeight:0];
As per your request:
UIImage *backgroundImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"q4Ses.png"] stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:0.5 topCapHeight:0];
[_scro setBackgroundColor:[UIColor colorWithPatternImage:backgroundImage]];
And using your image:
The output is:
You can set this image on top of either UIScrollview, UIView and buttons. You do not need a for loop for that.
UPDATE:
The above code is for filling the entire background. If you wish to add only for one row then you have to create one UIView and set its colorWithPatternImage like below:
UIImage *backgroundImage = [[UIImage imageNamed:#"q4Ses.png"]
stretchableImageWithLeftCapWidth:1 topCapHeight:0];
UIView *v=[[UIView alloc]
initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, _scro.frame.size.width, 45)];
[v setBackgroundColor:[UIColor
colorWithPatternImage:backgroundImage]];
[_scro addSubview:v];
And the output:
Make a view of the height of image. But this view can have any width.
Then set your tile image in this view with following code.
UIImage *tiledImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"myTiledImage.png"];
self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:tiledImage];
This will get you the image tiled multiple times horizontally.
If the view spreads the image everywhere on screen then you'll have to add the following code to your view
self.view.clipToBounds = YES;
UIScrollView *myScrollView=[[UIScrollView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 480)];
CGFloat scrollWidth = 0.f;
for (int i=0;i<10;i++)//i=10,put as many image number u want to display
{
imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:
CGRectMake(scrollWidth, 0, 80, 60.f)];
imageView.image=[UIImage imageNamed:#"urimagename"];
imageView.tag=i;
[myScrollView addSubview:imageView];
scrollWidth += 100;
}
myScrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(scrollWidth, 100);
EDIT:
You can achieve this in one more way.
CodenameLambda1's answer is better than the above one.But still some changes needs to be done in the #CodenameLambda1's answer..as the SOP's requirement is to display it in scrollview.So instead of self.view use scrollview.
UIScrollView *vie=[[UIScrollView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 60)];
UIImage *tiledImage = [UIImage imageNamed:#"login"];
vie.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:tiledImage];
vie.contentSize=CGSizeMake(1400,60);
vie.clipsToBounds = YES;
[self.view addSubview:vie];
I'm working on something that will require me to cycle through images and create some sort of fade in and fade out transition between them. I'm used to javascript, so naturally I would want change the depth of the imageview that is going to be faded in. Is there a way to choose which view shows on the top? Or is there a better way of doing what I want to achieve?
CGRect imageFrame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, 1024.0, 280.0);
UIImageView *image_one = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:imageFrame];
image_one.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"image_one.png"];
[self.view addSubview:image_one];
UIImageView *image_two = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:imageFrame];
image_two.image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"image_two.png"];
[self.view addSubview:image_two];
You can remove a view from the view hierarchy, then re-insert it using [UIView insertSubview:aboveSubview:] and [UIView insertSubview:belowSubview:].
Is it possible to add an image in the UIView with specific coordinates?
If so, anyone who is keen on explaining how to?
You need to create an UIImageView and set it's frame to the desired coordinate.
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:<#imageName#>]];
imageView.frame = CGRectMake(<#x#>, <#y#>, <#width#>, <#height#>);
[yourViewController.view addSubView:imageView];
Let me know if this works for you.
Something like this?
UIImageView *myImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:someImage];
myImage.frame = CGRectMake(40, 40, myImage.frame.size.width, myImage.frame.size.height);
[myView addSubview:myImage];
That'll add an image, contained in an image view, at specific coordinates.
Yes, you have either to draw the image in -(void)drawRect:(CGRect)aRect;, by subclassing UIView, or to add an UIImageView as a subview of the main view, displaying the image.
Have a look on these :
UIImageView Class Reference.

I've use a imagepicker to select image from my photo library, then i display that image in an uiimageview. Landscape photo works fine but there is some weirdness to the portrait image. The portrait image suppose to fill up the left and right empty space but it's not.
Cant figure out why the picture wont fill up the left and right space cause the imageview frame did specify the mainScreen bounds.
If i take away the aspectfit then the potrait image is nicely display but the landscape image is stretched to fill up the whole imageview.
My code is as follow:
CGRect frame = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
UIScrollView *scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
UIImageView *selectedImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
selectedImageView.image = image;
selectedImageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
[scrollView addSubview:selectedImageView];
[selectedImageView release];
scrollView.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:scrollView];
[scrollView release];
Here is what it looks like:
Edit: My goal is to display the photo like it's been display in Photos album, start out as fitting in the view and allow zoom in to a certain limit.
Try out
UIImageView *logoImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"logo_bg.png"]];
[logoImageView setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, [UIImage imageNamed:#"logo_bg.png"].size.height)];
[mainView addSubview:logoImageView];
I am developing a software and in it I am making a new file, which is subclass of UIViewController, when I do use UIImageView, then there is little border remaining in it, what should I do so that my image should cover all area around it,
my coding of UIImageView in ViewDidLoad is
UIImageView* view = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage: [UIImage imageNamed: #"frontnew.png"]];
view.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 415);
[self.view addSubview:view];
now what should I do ????
If I increase height and width then it will increase from two sides, not all ???
you should set imageview property as scalltoFit
May be it can help you
