accessoryButton with Instruments automation - iphone

I'm writing some automation .js file, and I need to tap one of my accessoryButton from one cell.
How can I send the tap message to it ?
This is a custom cell, but the accessoryButton is added by iOS, not by me, and I don't know wich name it has.
Also in the docs I couldn't find anything ...
I have the cell referenced correcly as I can change the textField value for example.
Thanks in advance,
regards

I would take a look at the buttons property on your UIATableCell. That should give you the buttons in your cell and you can probably get to the accessoryButton from there. UIATableCell does not seem to have a specific property for the accessoryButton (cf. here).

Swift and Parse - PFQueryTableViewController loadingViewEnabled

Good day! I'm using Parse for my swift project, Specifically the PFQueryTableViewController but i want to change the loading view when i open the app. It doesn't look good in my background so i want to change its color and shadow. Also its UIActivityIndicatorView. Is it possible to change this things? Here is the Screenshot for it.
I tried searching for that method in ParseUI framework but i can't find it. I hope you can help me, Thanks!
Only the table controller is unique to Parse. The spinner is just a regular UI element. Thus, the iOS developer references are good places to look for this.
Try this link for the activity spinner:
This link shows information about the controller, which shows that it simply inherits from UITableViewController, and the cells/background can be styled accordingly.
In general, Parse tries to prefix its objects with PF.

How would one implement a sliding 2 button menu like this from Lift?

Can't post the image on the site but there it is.
I have been trying to find if this is a template or a separate nib file ala the page turn animation. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
That is called a UIActionSheet. It is created entirely in code, so it's limited to some pretty simple stuff (i.e. a few buttons, one of which is the cancel button, and one of which can be marked "destructive"). Just consult the documentation for the UIActionSheet class; it tells you all there is to know about it.
Also, here's the discussion in my book:

How do I add a button to the InAppSettingsKit setting view (iPhone/iPad)?

I have been looking at the sample app provided by InAppSettingsKit and I noticed the use of a couple of buttons:
I would like to integrate a single red button in my app called reset, however I'm not sure how to do it. I've had a look at the code in the sample app and I'm a bit lost with it all. Please could someone help me out?
After spending a while searching through all the code and plists I managed to find the answer to my question. For those who are interested what you need to do is the following:
Add a row to your Root.plist file with the Type set to IASKButtonSpecifier.
Set the Identifier on this row as something useful e.g. 'myButton1'.
Add the following delegate method to the viewController you loaded the InAppSettingsKit from:
- (void)settingsViewController:(IASKAppSettingsViewController*)sender buttonTappedForKey:(NSString*)key
{
if ([key isEqualToString:#"myButton1"])
{
// Do some actions...
}
}
It's worth noting that the key is equal to the identifier you set in the Root.plist.
The only thing I haven't worked out yet is how to change the colour of the button; however I suspect this may be possible by overriding a method.
Great that you already found part of the solution. To customize the look, you should create a custom view using the IASKCustomViewSpecifier documented on http://www.inappsettingskit.com/. The yellow icon for instance is making use of this. In your case, you could return an instance of UIButton with a red background color (or a custom background image).
In this case, you don't need the buttonTappedForKey method to get the tap event but configure the target/action of your button as usual.

Customize ABPersonViewController

Is it possible to add custom UITableViewCell row in addition to built-in email, phone rows inside ABPersonViewController?
I would like to add buttons like add, remove, etc in that cell, which will allow user to be added/removed into/from my application.
Please let me know, Thank you.
Pretty sure you've gotten the answer to this by this point, but I was just looking into do this myself.
Basically, No.
These controllers are not designed to be customized and Apple mentions it in their documentation.
This answer might help you:

It subclasses ABPersonViewController which allows you to play a bit with the screen controls...

suppress keyboard in iphone UiWebViews

I have an app that uses UiWebViews, and I need to not show the keyboard for a text field within such a view. I provide my own buttons that insert the limited sorts of text the field allows, but I also need to allow pasting (I will filter what gets pasted) and adjusting the cursor position. Any way to do this?
It looks like this can't be done, I've researched it further and that's pretty clear. I don't want to accept a wrong answer, so I figured I'd just answer this myself and say: can't be done.
if you just want the textField do normal things except the showing keyboard action, you could subclass UITextField and overwrite the touchesBegan/Moved/Ended, just call super touchesBegan/Moved/Ended and add additional code which would hide the keyboard, if you have a reference to the keyboard ( you may figure it out urself how-to ), call the method : [keyboard resignFirstResponder], you may try to Category the UITextField class so you would have the reference to the keyboard ( if it's private ) - but not recommended because categorying may break our project design, but if you just need it for the only purpose, give it a try. Hope it helps.
