Anyone know whether there is a 5-star rating component on iPhone?

Question

In Google groups and some other web sites, there is a 5-star rating component which is pretty neat, such as in this url: http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Picasa-Data-AP

Answer 1

I don't know of any free/available components off the top of my head, but if nobody offers one up and/or you can't find one you like, it should be fairly trivial to roll your own. In the simplest terms, you would only have to:

1. Create/Find a star icon - one outline (unselected), one filled
2. Create a UIButton and set the icons for the selected/unselected states
3. Create a container view that held your x stars and when one was selected, the container could set the selected state on any button to the left of the touched button.

Shouldn't take long at all to build...
