hi
I want to display drop down menu like the one you see in this image http://callingcard.marigoholdings.com/Screenshots.html#1
(below From and To)
How can i create that? Any good tutorial.
Best regards
You will have to use UIPicker for this purpose.This is used as a dropdown whereever needed in iPhone.
Please refer the link below
How to create drop down list box for an iphone app
Thanks
It looks like that app is using a combination of a UIWebView and an html select tag. To do something similar would involve a solid bit of html and javascript hackery, but in essence would be:
Create a UIWebView and inject the appropriate HTML into it to make the dropdown.
User uses dropdown as if it was in mobile safari and picks something.
When you need it, you use a javascript call with stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString: to grab the value of the dropdown by id and pass it back to your code.
There are a few gotchas here, mainly with constructing the dropdown and the webview such that it's big enough to show the expanded dropdown but transparent to see under it when the dropdown is not expanded, it's not scrollable, and that sort of thing.
I wonder if a UIActionsheet might be better ... you could easy make a button to call the sheet. Adding multiple buttons to the sheet transforms it into a table that you can scroll.

In most iOS apps, selected text has a "lookup" option. Flutter interactive selection only shows "cut, copy and paste". I couldn't find an option for "lookup".
Is there a way to show the "lookup" option?
If not, assuming I create my own selection controls, is there a way to manually show the modal?
For reference, here's what I mean by "lookup" option:
and here's what I mean by the "lookup" modal:
You cann't. Flutter overrides all the UI of the native system, drawing its own. Think in Flutter in the same way you think in a videogame. Flutter takes an OpenGL Canvas and draws all stuff by itself from scratch.
As you don't use any elements from native, you neither don't have the native contextual menus. That is why you get that different options.
Now, the kind of good news. You can modify the Flutter one to configure the options. You need to use the SelectableText widget from Flutter. Take a look also at the selectionControls property. You can create your own toolbar from there.
I saw a form on Qdoba.com. There is effect where if you click on a checkbox, the checkmark slides up and then if you uncheck it, the checkmark slides down.
Here is a link to the form: http://www.qdoba.com/menu-nutrition/burritos-menu-nutrition
I would like to know what language this was created in and if possible, how might I best approach recreating this.
Thanks for you help in advance.
It's done with JavaScript (powered by jQuery, but this is unnecessary).
However, a similar effect can be achieved with plain CSS, as shown in this Fiddle, by using the :checked selector.
HTML, looks like it uses CSS and jQuery (plugin). Looks like a few different types of code.
I don't know about the language, but this effect is accomplished with a CSS sprite. One image consists of a blank area with a checkmark below. When the user clicks on the checkbox the image slides upward so the checkmark appears to have been animated in. (Note also that the checkbox is a <div>, not an actual <input type="checkbox">; if you recreate something like this, be sure to consider the accessibility implications of using something other than an <input> as a checkbox.)
I'm trying to load in content from a database and allow the user to flip through it like pages, then at the end of the content, give them options to go to another section of content (probably with buttons). The content is currently just formatted with html, but how do I implement the buttons to navigate? I'm a little new to Xcode so maybe I'm not even looking in the right direction.
refer a this opensource: https://github.com/devindoty/iBooks-Flip-Animation
this is very little code and perfectly works.
I'm an iPhone developer, but new to web development. I've done some basic HTML websites and made one in iWeb as well. I'm trying to branch out to mobile web development now, so I checked out Dashcode.
Anyway, I'm trying to put a Call Button, Mail Button, and Map Button in horizontal alignment. I realize that I can add a Column Layout and have two buttons in a row, but that's the most I've gotten.
Any ideas? Thanks!

Edit: I still haven't figured this out yet. I was given advice about a fixed position button bar, but I am not sure how to implement it. I've been looking at code, but haven't gotten it yet. Still trying though. Any help is appreciated!
What i do usually is to select the element you can't align horizontally and then go to the inspector -> dimension tab and in disposition you select fixed absolute.
This should work but beware because if you've the intention to change element's place dynamically you may have some surprise...
I think you are looking for something like this.
A fixed position button bar is created with several buttons side by side.

I am creating a dictionary-style app that presents a tableview full of words, and when a word is selected, a UITextView is displayed that shows the definition of the word. What I would like to do is add a line that says "See also: synonym1, synonym2" where synonym1 and synonym2 are links that will take the user to the definition for the synonym that is touched.
What is the best way to add these dynamic links? Buttons? Somehow add a small UIWebView a UItable on the fly?
Thanks!
I would replace your UITextView with a UIWebView and use that contain your description text and your links. It's fairly trivial to generate HTML on the fly for something like that.
You could register a custom URL scheme for your app, or you could intercept links as they're clicked.
If your links are always grouped together there's no reason why you couldn't use a bunch of UIButtons inside a custom view, but then you'd have to handle layout and wrapping on your own. It seems a lot easier to do it in HTML.
