nib

I'm contemplating writing some helper functions to make it easier to do simple changes to the UI elements in my iPhone NIB. Mainly - I want to access a UILabel, or other element, via its Name in Interface Builder. Is this possible? Is there a smarter approach? Example Say I want to make a super simple iPhone app that displays 'Hello World'. I start a new project and then open the NIB and drag a UILabel into my view and give it a 'Name' of 'LblMain'. Now, presuming that I've included my handy helper function, I'd like to assign the label some new text something like this: [helper setText:@

I'm currently seeing this error: MonoTouchException: Objective-C exception thrown. Name: NSInternalInconsistencyException Reason: Could not load NIB in bundle: 'NSBundle </Users/imac/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Applications/5D8B4B51-9FB2-4331-BFEB-B1A0AC77DF42/Tutorial.app> (loaded)' with name 'MyFirstView' I've looked through lots of other questions like: NSInternalInconsistencyException Could not load nib in bundle Could not load NIB in bundle and lots of others But I can't see that any apply here - they are mainly about file naming issues and my Nib does appear to be in

Can anyone tell me how (or direct me to info on) displaying a .xib (nib) on another .xib (nib). How ever I wish to place it so I can programically move it around the main nib sort of like this (which obviously doesn't work) - (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect { NSRect customView = NSMakeRect(pos1, pos1, 200, 100); [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"secondXib" owner:self]; NSRectFill (customView); } And I wish to do this for Mac OS X (Not iPhone). (By the way using xCode 4 incase it makes a difference) You can easily load a view from another nib using NSViewController . In your nib you should

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

When setting your device to a Right-To-Left language, iOS reverses the order of items. For example in a UITableViewCell set with Auto-Layout: I have an avatar image on the left and some text aligned right from it that fills up the rest of the cell. In Arabic my avatar is on the right and my label is on the left. Is there a way to prevent iOS from doing this on certain views, or is there a general setting defining whether or not it can be reversed? For Xcode6 and iOS8 you can uncheck Respect language direction for the horizontal constrains like below: You can set the 'direction' property of a

I have narrowed down an ugly bug, but since it seems like something internal to the nib/Interface Builder, I'm at a loss of what to do next. I've got a UIView created in IB which functions as a custom dialog box. It shows a message and two buttons. (Proceed or Cancel.) Both buttons have a Background image set in Interface Builder. Something is wrong with the way the background image for the cancel button is being handled. With NSZombieEnabled, I've been running the program. Most often, the method below logs this: -[ModalDialog showInView:title:message:cancelText:proceedText:]
