iOS9: UIDatePicker with datePickerMode of UIDatePickerModeTime only shows Hours, and no Minutes

Question

I\'m using Xcode beta 7 with the iOS9 simulator. Using a UIDatePicker with a datePickerMode of UIDatePickerModeTime only shows Hours, and not minutes.

See screenshot:

Answer 1

I had an issue when upgrading Xcode to 7.0.

When the UIDatePicker was displayed the middle portion was blank, as per LordParsley's answer.

The height of the UIDatePicker for iOS 9 is 216; whereas earlier versions the height is 162, and forcing the height to 162 resolved the issue.

Since my view is defined within a storyboard, I setup a height constraint on the UIDatePicker and set the height to 162 for iOS versions < 9.0, within the view's viewDidLoad.

- (void) viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];

    if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] < 9.0) {
        //
        // NOTE: iOS 9, or Xcode 7, now sets UIDatePicker height at 216; whereas,
        // iOS 8, or Xcode 6.x, set it at 162.
        //
        // If the height is left at 216, then on iOS 7.1, the middle portion of the
        // UIDatePicker control is missing.  Setting the hieght to 162 fixes the issue
        // within this application.
        //
        // UIDatePicker frame cannot be used to adjust the size, therefore use a
        // height contraint to change the size.
        //
        self.dateHeightConstraint.constant = 162;
    }
