I have a question regarding the implementation of loadView:
Right now, I have it like this:
- (void)loadView
{
image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"plan.gif"];
scrollView=[[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]];
imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:
CGRectMake(0, 0,scrollView.frame.size.width + 40, scrollView.frame.size.height)];
imageView.image = image;
[imageView setContentMode:UIViewContentModeCenter];
scrollView.contentSize = image.size;
scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 3.0;
scrollView.bounces = NO;
scrollView.delegate = self;
// do any further configuration to the scroll view
// add a view, or views, as a subview of the scroll view.
[scrollView addSubview:imageView];
// release scrollView as self.view retains it
self.view=scrollView;
[scrollView release];
}
I suppose some of it should be in viewDidLoad:?
Thanks in advance.
This seems fine to me.
viewDidLoad is normally used as your hook after getting a view returned from IB. In this case you are essentially just doing the work of IB in code (setting up the view heirachy and configuring it).
Therefore in this case I think splitting out the logic may be superfluous unless it makes your code more readable.

I added tableview to scrollview programmatically but it is not scrolling. While i tried the same using XIB. but it is working fine.
here is my code
CGRect frame = CGRectMake(30, 30.0f, 900, 300.0f);
eappTable = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame] style:UITableViewStylePlain];
eappTable.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight|UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth;
eappTable.delegate = self;
eappTable.dataSource = self;
eappTable.scrollEnabled = YES;
eappTable.scrollsToTop = YES;
[eappTable reloadData];
[scrollView addSubview:eappTable];
eappTable = [[UITableView alloc] nitWithFrame:YourSize style:Table_Style]];
eappTable.delegate = self;
eappTable.dataSource = self;
eappTable.scrollEnabled = YES;
[scrollView addSubview:eappTable];
And set self.scrollView.contentSize
You have to set the Content Size of ScrollView.
Hope it Helps !!!
Try to enable bouncing (because if all cells size are smaller than the uitableview size it self, it won't scroll if bounce is set to NO) :
eappTable.bounces = YES;
[eappTable setContentSize:CGSizeMake(320, 680)];
I know this is not the answer you are looking for. But I would like to mention one point :
Never add tableview as the subview of your scrollview.
Important: You should not embed UIWebView or UITableView objects
in UIScrollView objects. If you do so, unexpected behavior can
result because touch events for the two objects can be mixed up and
wrongly handled.
From UIWebView Class Reference
I have created a UIScrollView and am now trying to place a UIButton over the scroll view. However when I build and run the application the scroll view still works fine but I cannot see the UIButton.
I link the UIButton IBOutlet inside the interface builder.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]];
scrollView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];
scrollView.delegate = self;
scrollView.bounces = NO;
backgroundImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"auckland-300.jpg"]];
image = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"249a-134206f1d00-1342071f5d9.ImgPlayerAUCKLAND.png"]];
// Note here you should size the container view appropriately and layout backgroundImage and image accordingly.
containerView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,601,601)];
playButton = [[UIButton alloc] init]; //test button cannot see it.
[containerView addSubview:backgroundImage];
[containerView addSubview:image];
scrollView.contentSize = containerView.frame.size;
[scrollView addSubview:containerView];
scrollView.minimumZoomScale = 0.5;
scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 31.0;
[scrollView setZoomScale:scrollView.minimumZoomScale];
self.view = scrollView;
}
Any help would be appreciated
Everything seems ok. But I think the reason you are not able to see the button playButton is because you are not adding it to the view itself.
Dont you need to do this ? [containerView addSubview:playButton];
To help you out, here's what I do for debugging -
UIView implements a useful description method. In addition, it
implements a recursiveDescription method that you can call to get a
summary of an entire view hierarchy.
NSLog(#"%#", [controller.view recursiveDescription]);
The button is probably in the nib that you linked the controllers view to, right? By assigning the scrollview to the view, you remove the view from
The nib from the controller, that's why you can't see te button or press it.
You can either place the button in the scrollview or you add both scrollView and thenthe playButton as subviews of self.view.
Maybe you want to rethink your design tho.
Placing a button over a scrollview doesn't really seem like good practice to me.
Hi, I have a big image and small image over it at a specific location...
I added them all under ScrollView, but it didn't work properly?
I want to zoom in, all together each in its place
Here is my code:
myScrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(imageView.frame.size.width, imageView.frame.size.height);
myScrollView.maximumZoomScale = 3.0;
myScrollView.minimumZoomScale = 1.0;
myScrollView.clipsToBounds = YES;
myScrollView.delegate = self;
[myScrollView addSubview:imageView];
thanks
Hi, mackworth; I did it, but if I didn't maximize the image, I can't move the scroll view anywhere, but if I zoomed it, I can see the rest.. I don't know why I tried changing it, but it work. Can you please look at the following code?
- (void)viewDidLoad{
[super viewDidLoad];
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:#"ucd.png"];
//creating a view for UCD image
ucdView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
//setting the frame for the ucdView as the same size of ucd image
[ucdView setFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, image.size.width, image.size.height)];
//for the red pin to display in specific loc
UIImageView *Health = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"redPin.png"]];
[Health setCenter:CGPointMake(310,135)];
//adding helathView to ucdview
[ucdView addSubview:Health];
//everything for scroll view
UIScrollView *scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, ucdView.frame.size.width, ucdView.frame.size.height)];
[scrollView setMinimumZoomScale:1.0];
[scrollView setMaximumZoomScale:3.0];
scrollView.clipsToBounds = YES;
[scrollView setContentSize:CGSizeMake(image.size.width, image.size.height)];
[scrollView setDelegate:self];
[scrollView addSubview:ucdView];//adding ucd view to scroll view
[self.view addSubview:scrollView]; // adding scrollview to self.view main view
}
- (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {//apply zooming for scrollview
return scrollView;
}
Did you implement:
- (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
return self.imageView;
}
Also, you know that by setting the scrollView's contentSize to your imageSize, it can't grow any bigger than that, right? It'll zoom in place, cropping the outer pixels accordingly. As an aside, if that is your plan, why not just set it directly?
myScrollView.contentSize = imageView.frame.size;
=====Further answer, responding to additional source
Well, the main thing I notice is that you need to return the imageView ucdView in viewForZoomingInScrollView, not the scrollView. It looks like you already created ucdView as a property (so that it lives as long as your view does), but just in case...
1) In your .h file:
UIImageView * ucdView;
#property (nonatomic, retain) UIImageView * ucdView;
2) In your .m file;
#synthesize ucdView;
3) change your line:
ucdView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
to just
self.ucdView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
4) change the line
return scrollView
to:
return self.ucdView;
5) Add the following to your dealloc routine:
self.ucdView = nil;
Also, did you add <UIScrollViewDelegate> protocol to your ViewController definition (in .h file)?
Finally, you have a leak of scrollview and Health; add [scrollView release]; and [Health release] at end of viewDidLoad
I have this very simple code or at least i think it's simple.
// Implement loadView to create a view hierarchy programmatically, without using a nib.
- (void)loadView {
CGRect rect = CGRectMake(0.0f, 20.0f, 320.0f, 216.0f);
UIPickerView *myPickerView = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
self.view = myPickerView;
[myPickerView release];
}
I am running a general View Based template with XCode. I can see the loadView getting called but i get an black frame instead of the UIPickerView.
What am i doing wrong ?
/donnib
Have you implemented the picker's datasource methods? You need it otherwise it won't show.
Link to Apple Documentation here: http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/iPhone/Reference/UIPickerViewDataSource_Protocol/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/intf/UIPickerViewDataSource
You've forgotten to set the UIPickerView's delegate to your current view. Add:
myPickerView.delegate = self;
...following your initialization and before your view. And of course, make sure you set up your header file as a UIPickerView delegate and implement the dataSource methods.
Try this:
UIView *contentView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: [[UIScreen mainscreen] bounds]];
UIPickerView *pickerView = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectZero];
CGSize pickerSize = [pickerView sizeThatFits: CGSizeZero];
pickerView.frame = [self pickerFrameWithSize: pickerSize];
[pickerView setShowsSelectionIndicator: YES];
[contentView addSubview: pickerView];
[pickerView release];
[self setView: contentView];
[contentView release];
Instead of overriding -loadView, you should override -viewDidLoad. Once the view has loaded you'll create the picker and add it as a subview of the view owned by the view controller.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
CGRect rect = CGRectMake(0.0f, 20.0f, 320.0f, 216.0f);
UIPickerView *myPickerView = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
[self.view addSubview:myPickerView];
[myPickerView release];
}
I'm having a bit of difficulty trying to build my view. Everything works out great up to the point where I need to insert a UIToolBar into my view. The tableView is placed where I expected it to be placed. The UIToolBar on the other hand, scrolls up and down with the table, it doesn't remain fixed as it should. It also looks rather odd when put on the screen -- I'm guessing because the calculation to place it isn't right? Attached to this question is a screenshot as well as the code I've used to build this. Thanks for your help in spotting out what I'm doing incorrect. Screenshot: http://dl-web.dropbox.com/u/57676/screenshots/broketoolbar.png
The code:
- (void)loadView
{
[super loadView];
// TableViews that wish to utilize tableView footers/headers should override this method.
UITableView *aTableView = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame] style:UITableViewStylePlain];
aTableView.autoresizingMask = (UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth|UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight);
aTableView.separatorStyle = UITableViewCellSeparatorStyleSingleLine;
aTableView.delegate = self;
aTableView.dataSource = dataSource;
self.tableView = aTableView;
self.view = tableView;
[aTableView release];
UIToolbar *toolbar = [UIToolbar new];
[toolbar setBarStyle:UIBarStyleBlackOpaque];
[toolbar sizeToFit];
CGFloat toolbarHeight = [toolbar frame].size.height;
CGRect mainViewBounds = self.view.bounds;
[toolbar setFrame:CGRectMake(CGRectGetMinX(mainViewBounds),
CGRectGetMinY(mainViewBounds) + CGRectGetHeight(mainViewBounds) - (toolbarHeight * 2.0),
CGRectGetWidth(mainViewBounds),
toolbarHeight)];
[self.view insertSubview:toolbar aboveSubview:self.tableView];
[toolbar release];
}
because self.view is tableView onto which you added toolbar.
