xib

in iOS 6 there's a new "feature" that mirrors the UI elements in the xib file if the user is on right-to-left locale (hebrew, arabic). ( http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#documentation/miscellaneous/conceptual/iphoneostechoverview/iPhoneOSTechnologies/iPhoneOSTechnologies.html ) It completely messes up my interface. Is there a way to disable it without disabling auto-layout? Horizontal constraints have the "Direction" option in Interface Builder. By default it's set to "Leading to Trailing" which causes the mirroring. You can set it to "Left to Right" to disable the mirroring. Note,

I have a custom UIView ( MyCustomUIView ) which is built using Interface Builder. I'd like to place this custom view in MyViewController 's view, which is also designed using IB. I've placed an UIView as a subview in MyViewController 's XIB and set it's class to MyCustomUIView . The problem is, when I run the code, only a blank view appears. (When I instantiate MyCustomUIView in code, it displays well.) I'm only overriding the initWithFrame: method the following way in MyCustomUIView.m : - (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame { [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"MyCustomUIView" owner:self

I've got a storyboard which is built using Auto Layout. Within that storyboard, I'm embedding a UIViewController subclass ( ButtonGridViewController ) in several locations, each of which is a different size. ButtonGridViewController 's view is defined in a xib. What I need is for the entirety of the ButtonGridViewController 's view to simply scale-to-fill the view I'm embedding it in. With the old struts-and-springs method, this was trivial -- just set all the subviews to resize in both directions, and voila, piece of cake. How do I accomplish the same thing using constraints? For what it's

I deleted main menu from my xib file. How can I recreate it without coping it from another freshly created xib? I can't seem find how to tell IB that menu that I add from object library is actually main application menu. You can't. You used to be able to simply connect the mainMenu outlet to your menu, but as of Xcode 4, there is no mainMenu outlet and there is no replacement way to create a Main Menu in an existing nib. You must create a new MainMenu nib using the New File command and either copy the Main Menu object from that nib or just replace the old nib with the new. It doesn't appear

I wanted to use a xib file to customise a tableview section in xcode (objective C), and here ar my files: SectionHeaderView.xib is a UIView with a UILabel SectionHeaderView.m #import "SectionHeaderView.h" @implementation SectionHeaderView @synthesize sectionHeader; @end SectionHeaderView.h #import <UIKit/UIKit.h> @interface SectionHeaderView : UIView { IBOutlet UILabel *sectionHeader; } @property (nonatomic, strong) IBOutlet UILabel *sectionHeader; @end and in my MasterViewController.m #import "SectionHeaderView.h" - (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:

is there a way how to segue from a xib-file (custom TableViewCell) to another ViewController in the Main.storyboard. There's no possibility to drag a segue, like within the main storyboard. In the cell I've got a button, from where I want to change the view. How can I solve it? Thanks! You can always instantiate a view controller from your Storyboard and present it on button tapped: let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil) let vc = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("ViewControllerID") as UIViewController self.presentViewController(vc, animated: true, completion

I have some labels on my xib. Some of them are not need to be localized. When i generate strings file via ibtool all labels content included in result file. How can i exclude some UI objects in IB from localization when generate strings? Unfortunately there is no way to annotate the content of your nib/xib files so that ibtool's --export-strings-file command ignores certain strings. You could instead opt to use the --export-xliff option and then edit the XLIFF file to lock segments that must not be translated (attribute translate="no" ) before sending them out to be localized in all your

I've been looking at the sample code and sometimes Apple names xib files ClassNameView and sometimes ClassNameViewController . The ClassName is always a UIViewController or UITableViewController , which had me wonder what convention to use when naming a xib. I would think View as it's not really the ViewController , but curious on what the convention is or at least what your naming conventions are for xibs. I use ClassNameView since the xib represents the view, not the view controller. I don't think there is a generally accepted convention. CocoaTouch supports both conventions, with a
