I have a button connected to an action.
When I set the background image on that button, the result is not visually appealing. I want just to see the image not the button but I want the ibaction functionality of that button.
Please help
You need a button with type UIButtonTypeCustom (this will stop the default button appearance from drawing). You can do this in interface builder or in code (although you can't change it once the button is initialized).

How can I display some text message when a label is tapped?
I have a label (Address).Now and when I tap over on it, I need to display the corresponding address in a small popup.
How can I do it?
I found out from your comment that you actually want to have a pop up on tap event.
All you need to do is
Have a button on the UILabel (on which you want to show pop up).
Make button of cutom type (It will make the button disappeared).
After that write a method to show pop up, and connect it to that custom button.
For creating a pop up, you can use UIView of desired size and position & make it appear/disappear on custom button tap event (touch up inside).
Hope this helps.
I've gotten Tweet sheets to appear in my app, but I'd like to spawn them only when a user presses the particular "Tweet" button in a UIActionSheet.
Currently, my UIActionSheet is being shown in the main view after the user presses a Rounded Rect Button. I would like to change this button to be Apple's "standard" share method, which is using the button with the square image and the arrow jumping out of it, as shown below
Where could I find the image for the button to do this, or is the button already built into XCode?
I hope I'm being clear enough.
Thank you.
You have to just create toolbar item with Bar Button Item. In Attributes Inpector choose 'Action' type of your button.
Attach selector/method from your rounded rect button to this button.
HTH!
I've seen a dropdown-like button on many apps, including Turf Wars, that simulates a dropdown with a picker.
I need to use the same functionality in my app, but I'm not too sure what the best way to go about it may be.
Example:
I figured I could make two images and set them as a UIButtons background image for the different states and have the button open a pickerview.
Any input would be appreciated.

You can use a button with the image like dropdown image. And you can place a picker over that button hidden. In the click event you will show the picker. And after selection on picker you have to update the text value of the button and hide the picker again. Hope it helps you...
You can use a pop over that has picker in it.You can use use different images as UIButton background as you mentioned.It will give a feel of dropdown button.You can show popover on button action
how can i just change the color,of a button when i set the focus on the button in iphone.
I mean to say , for example we have 5 buttons, and i am just setting the focus on each of the button. i want those buttons to be higlighted with different color.
but when press or touch up inside the utton, the navigation is made to the respective forms, that is set for that button.
you can write method, for example, let it be
- (void) changeButtonState:(UIButton*) buttonToChange;
then you can call it in your onBtnClk method for button you need. in that method you can change image for your button's UIControlStateNormal mode. and if I understand right, you can use toolbar or tabbar instead of buttons.
Guess you have already asked this issue differently here..
But have you checked the answer?? You can use any of those methods at your will!
i have a UIImageView displayed in my view with an image "image1" already set.
I have a button below it.
During runtime i would like the image to change to "image 2" when the button is pressed and upon release i would like the image to display "image1" again
1) I know that i have to give the UIImage a label or something so that i can access it from xcode.
2) i know that i need to change the propery of the image upon press
3) i need to have an IBAction or something so that when i press the button it should change the property of the image to "image2"
BUT i dont know how to do this?
Can someone help please?
You need an outlet in your controller that is connected to the image view, so that the controller can find and message the image view. Check out this tutorial, and the Interface Builder documentation.
