change launch image(default.png)? - iphone

i am quite new to iphone development but i have been given a old application and told to change the launch image(default.png)..i tried to google it but couldn't get much help from it??
how can i change the default image in my old application?? any information regarding it will be really helpful??

The term is splash screen and I'm sure that's why you weren't seeing any good search results. Here is a good link:

You can't change it programmatically. You can make a new one and just replace Default.png file with it.

Add an icon to a Perl/GTK application

I've written a little app in perl/Gtk, now I want to add an icon to it. I"ve got a jpg file.
The app is very basic, and of course use a Gtk2::Window object.
I was thought to use Image::Base::Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf but Gtk2::Window->set_default_icon only want a Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf object, and I have not managed to create one (if someone can show me). I'm on a debian with perl-5.14.2.
Thanks guys!
Oh, got it!
use Image::Base::Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf;
my $navIco = Gtk2::Gdk::Pixbuf->new_from_file("./mltwb.png"); `
$window->set_default_icon($navIco);`
Just had to read doc. Thanks folks!

App title within settings application different from title on home screen?

Is this possible? Basically, I want to name my app Foo on the home screen, and BarFoo within the settings application on the device. I did find this SO answer, which suggests it's not possible, without quite saying as much in so many words.
This is not possible. Apple uses the same string in both locations.
I think you want to change your application's bundle display name. You will find that in your info.plist under CFBundleDisplayName.

Localization native development region does not change the app language

I am building an app which I only want it to be in Swedish.
Based on many questions in SO I set the Localication native development region to Sweden.
I set this in the app-info.plist.
But this does not seem to work. The app and the systemButtons are always displayed in English.
SHould i do something else to make it work?
Is this value overridden somewhere else? (I am mainly concerned about UITableView delete to a translated version of 'delete' button)
Your help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated
You should use ableView:titleForDeleteConfirmationButtonForRowAtIndexPath: to force the name of the delete in the table view.

SplitView like Facebook app on iPhone

I want to create an iPhone app that uses a navigation scene similar to the one pictured in the link
Please note I do not want this to only work for iPad, I want it to work for iPhone exactly as pictured, when you click on a tableview item it hides the tableview and makes that view full screen. I want ideas on how to do this because I cannot figure it out myself.
Thanks
Facebook guys have done brilliant job in the new version of the app. The similar open source code can be found from here - JTRevealSidebarDemo. Please note that as of June 2014, this project has been discontinued, so you'll probably have better luck with a project from the list below.
It reveals technique behind doing split view for iPhone.
Some other open source code:
JWSlideMenu
DDMenuController
PKRevealController
ViewDeck
ECSlidingViewController
MWFSlideNavigationViewController
MFSideMenu
SASlideMenu
HHTabListController
MTSlideViewController
MTStackViewController
MMDrawerController
DMSideMenuController
JVFloatingDrawer
How about projects with storyboard compatibility?
I found 1 more slide menu which is compatible with storyboards:
SASlideMenu
Another storyboard-compatible menu is
ECSlidingViewController
and
ViewDeck
from Sagar's answer. They both have storyboard examples (for the last one link is ViewDeckStoryboardExample)
For anyone else looking for an Android version, take a look at:
android fb like slideout navigation
emerging ui pattern side navigation
I realize you asked about facebook, but now that ios7 is out, and this is the defacto thread i thought id post here.
For an effect similar to the kindle app on ios7 you can use:
https://github.com/romaonthego/REFrostedViewController
If anyone else is looking for a way to implement this in MonoTouch now known as Xamarin.ios, take a look at this article I just found. monotouch slide out navigation
EDIT
I just found that they have a free component for this!
flyoutnavigation
I noticed no one listed this wonderful class... SWRevealController.
I use it with my project apps all the time. It's Easy to use and heavily documented... There are also a few examples John gives to the user to understand how it works or if you'd like to derive your project from... Hope this helps
SHSidebarControllerwith filder effect.
This might be helpful to you.. try this :)
This looks to be the best match for me.
PKRevealController
It has nice scroll effect with finger and moves back on partial drag.
https://github.com/pkluz/PKRevealController
MMDrawerController is very good option.
You can configure many things. try it once

I've been working on a floating-style navigation drawer that I hope people will like. It's on GitHub, take a look.

Iphone add image to project

i am new to iphone app development i was going through a tutorial and add images to project but unfortunately some time the images are available in dropdown for uiimageview and sometime they are not, can somebody help me why it is happening?
Regards
You can type the name of an image file into that dropdown field if dropdown doesn't show it.
Ensure that your images are both present in the filesystem and also imported into the project. If you still have trouble, restart IB.
