I am using a collection view with custom cells. I don't know why but my cells stopped working (they don't call didSelect anymore).
Basically it's a simple cell that i'm just putting a view on top of it (addSubview).
This view contains two imageViews and two labels.
I noticed that when i don't add this view, they do call didSelect. Isn't there a way to add a view on a UITableViewCell?
This is the code i'm using to add the view:
- (void)setCellWithMediaView:(TVNCategoryWideAndTallMediaView *)mediaView {
if (self.contentView.subviews.count > 0) {
[[self.contentView.subviews lastObject] removeFromSuperview];
}
self.categoryWideAndTallMediaView = [[TVNCategoryWideAndTallMediaView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)];
self.categoryWideAndTallMediaView = mediaView;
[self.contentView addSubview:self.categoryWideAndTallMediaView];
self.isMediaSet = YES;
}
You can set the userInteractionEnabled property to NO for that view and subviews.
self.categoryWideAndTallMediaView.userInteractionEnabled = NO;

I am trying to scroll in horizontal of a collection view section item.
There may be multiple section in collection view.
Did you try this method?
-(void)scrollToItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath atScrollPosition:(UICollectionViewScrollPosition)scrollPosition animated:(BOOL)animated
Or, besides scrolling to item, you can scrollRectToVisible:sectionRect. This example scrolls to a first item in a given section also considering the header view.
- (void)scrollToSection:(NSUInteger)section
{
if ([self.collectionView numberOfItemsInSection:section] > 0) {
UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes *attributes = [self.collectionView layoutAttributesForItemAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForItem:0 inSection:section]];
CGRect sectionRect = CGRectMake(0, attributes.frame.origin.y - 65, self.collectionView.frame.size.width, self.collectionView.frame.size.height); // 65 is height of the header view
[self.collectionView scrollRectToVisible:sectionRect animated:YES];
} else {
NSLog(#"no cell to scroll to");
}
}
i created a image view
for(int i=0; i<pcount; i++)
{
int x = rand() % 350;
int y = rand() % 350;
NSRect rect = NSMakeRect((x+10),(y+10), 200, 200);
//NSImageView *imageView
imageView1 = [[NSImageView alloc]initWithFrame:rect];
[imageView1 setTag:i];
// imageView = [[NSImageView alloc]initWithFrame:rect];
// [imageView1 rotateByAngle:rand() % 150];
[imageView1 setImageScaling:NSScaleToFit];
[imageView1 canBecomeKeyView];
NSImage *theImage = [[NSImage alloc]initWithContentsOfURL:(NSURL*)[patharray objectAtIndex:(i)]];
[imageView1 setImage:theImage];
[[imageView1 cell] setHighlighted:YES];
[[layoutCustom view] addSubview:imageView1 positioned:NSWindowMovedEventType relativeTo:nil];}
now how can select each image view by mouse click ? thanks in advance.
I'm assuming here that you have your reasons for not using existing collection views. So from what I read in your code you have layoutCustom.view, which contains a bunch of NSImageViews. Here are two options:
In your layoutCustom object implement the mouseDown: (or mouseUp: or both). Take the event location convert it view coordinates and look for any subview for which CGRectContainsPoint(subview.frame, mouseDownPoint) return YES. You should select that view.
Subclass NSImageView and implement mouseDown: (or mouseUp: or both). On mouseDown: simply set a "selected" flag. Either the view can draw something itself when selected or the layoutCustom object can observe the property and draw the selection accordingly.
I would prefer option 1 because it simpler, requires fewer classes and fewer interactions between objects.
// Option 1 (in layoutCustom class)
- (void) mouseDown:(NSEvent*)theEvent {
CGPoint mouseDownPoint = [self convertPoint:theEvent.locationInWindow fromView:nil];
for (NSView *view in self.subviews) {
if (CGRectContainsPoint(view.frame, mouseDownPoint)) {
// Do something to remember the selection.
// Draw the selection in drawRect:
[self setNeedsDisplay:YES];
}
}
}
// Option 2 (in Custom subclass of NSImage)
- (void) mouseDown:(NSEvent*)theEvent {
self.selected = !self.selected;
}
// Option 2 (in layoutCustom class)
- (void) addSubview:(NSView*)view positioned:(NSWindowOrderingMode)place relativeTo:(NSView*)otherView {
[super addSubview:view positioned:place relativeTo:otherView];
[self startObservingSubview:view];
}
- (void) willRemoveSubview:(NSView*)view {
[self stopObservingSubview:view];
}
- (void) startObservingSubview:(NSView*)view {
// Register your KVO here
// You MUST implement observeValueForKeyPath:ofObject:change:context:
}
- (void) stopObservingSubview:(NSView*)view {
// Remove your KVO here
}
I've got a better idea: Instead of fighting with converting mouse clicks in a view to coordinates and then figuring out how to map it to the right subview or sub-image, why not have one big (or scrolling?) view and then add your images as giant "NSButton" objects (set to custom type), where the button images can be the images you want to add.
As for how to select each image? You can either subclass "NSButton" and keep track of some custom data within it, or you can use a "tag" to figure out which button was pressed in your "IBAction" method and then decide what to do with it.
Another approach might be to embed your images into NSTableView cells...
I am developing my first MAC application, i downloaded one Example of PxListView
and i have to added one button and background image on cell xib and bind them with controller
and, when on button click i was set height of that cell is much bigger then other. that is done,
and work fine.
but now i want to develop like after is witch cell has open in that cell i want to add some extra contain (Controller) on it, so how it will possible using given example?
pls help me to give some suggest how it will be done.
for Ex like before click on button
after chick on button i want to develop like
You write
i have to added one button and background image on cell xib and bind them with controller
It sounds like you've subclassed PXListViewCell--for convenience, let's call your subclass TemplateListViewCell--and added a xib from which instances of TemplateListViewCell will be loaded in
+[PXListViewCell cellLoadedFromNibNamed:bundle:reusableIdentifier:]
In addition, there is a[t least one] button in TemplateListViewCell.xib.
You write
when on button click i was set height of that cell is much bigger then other. that is done, and work fine
It sounds like this button has as its action a method on TemplateListViewCell such as
- (IBAction)toggleDetail:(id)sender
{
//Code to grow or shrink the height of [self frame].
//...
}
In my approach to implementing -toggleDetail, two modifications to the PXListView files were necessary:
1. Adding a protocol method
- (void)listView:(PXListView *)aListView setHeight:(CGFloat)height ofRow:(NSUInteger)row;
to the PXListViewDelegate protocol.
2. Adding a property
#property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL expanded;
to PXListViewCell.
My implementation of -toggleDetail looks something like this:
- (IBAction)toggleDetail:(id)sender
{
BOOL wasExpanded = [self expanded];
NSRect oldFrame = [self frame];
CGFloat oldHeight = oldFrame.size.height;
CGFloat newHeight = oldHeight;
CGFloat heightIncrement = 0.0f;
if (wasExpanded) {
heightIncrement = -80.0f; //use whatever value is appropriate
} else {
heightIncrement = 80.0f; //use whatever value is appropriate
}
newHeight += heightIncrement;
[[[self listView] delegate] listView:[self listView] setHeight:newHeight ofRow:[self row]];
[[self listView] reloadData];
BOOL isExpanded = !wasExpanded;
[self setExpanded:isExpanded];
}
It might seem better to use [[self listView] reloadRowAtIndex:[self row]]; in place of [[self listView] reloadData], but unfortunately, this doesn't work: if the user hides the detail--shrinks the cell vertically--new cells which should appear on the screen do not.
You write
that is done, and work fine.
It sounds like you were able to implement successfully a method analogous to -[TemplateListViewCell toggleDetail:].
You write
but now i want to develop like after is witch cell has open in that cell i want to add some extra contain (Controller) on it, so how it will possible using given example? pls help me to give some suggest how it will be done.
It sounds like you want instances of TemplateListViewCell to contain extra views if they are expanded.
It might seem tempting to put this code into -[TemplateListViewCell toggleDetail], but this will not work out as we might hope. The trouble is, we need to handle cases where expanded cells have been scrolled out of view and scrolled back into view.
To get this right, we need to have a notion of expanded which persists beyond the usage of a PXListViewCell subclass instance: we either need to keep track of expansion in the PXListView itself or in its delegate.
The better--but less expedient--design seems to be to keep track of this information in the PXListView itself. For the sake of this question, however, I'll demonstrate how to keep track of cell expansion in the delegate. To do this, I'm expanding the PXListViewDelegate protocol and making other changes to the PXListView files:
1. Adding the methods
- (void)listView:(PXListView *)aListView setExpanded:(BOOL)expanded atRow:(NSUInteger)row;
- (BOOL)listView:(PXListView *)aListView expandedAtRow:(NSUInteger)row;
to PXListViewDelegate.
2. Adding the method
- (void)setCell:(PXListViewCell *)cell expandedAtRow:(NSUInteger)row
{
if ([[self delegate] respondsToSelector:#selector(listView:expandedAtRow:)]) {
[cell setExpanded:[[self delegate] listView:self expandedAtRow:row]];
}
}
to PXListView.
3. Calling -[PXListView setCell:expandedAtRow:] from -[PXListView layoutCells]
- (void)layoutCells
{
//Set the frames of the cells
for(id cell in _visibleCells)
{
NSInteger row = [cell row];
[cell setFrame:[self rectOfRow:row]];
[self setCell:cell expandedAtRow:row];
[cell layoutSubviews];
}
NSRect bounds = [self bounds];
CGFloat documentHeight = _totalHeight>NSHeight(bounds)?_totalHeight:(NSHeight(bounds) -2);
//Set the new height of the document view
[[self documentView] setFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0f, 0.0f, NSWidth([self contentViewRect]), documentHeight)];
}
and from -[PXListView layoutCell:atRow:]:
- (void)layoutCell:(PXListViewCell*)cell atRow:(NSUInteger)row
{
[[self documentView] addSubview:cell];
[cell setFrame:[self rectOfRow:row]];
[cell setListView:self];
[cell setRow:row];
[cell setHidden:NO];
[self setCell:cell expandedAtRow:row];
}
4. Setting _expanded to NO in -[PXListViewCell prepareForReuse]:
- (void)prepareForReuse
{
_dropHighlight = PXListViewDropNowhere;
_expanded = NO;
}
Note: In the sample PXListViewCell subclass, MyListViewCell, distributed with PXListView, the implementation of -[MyListViewCell prepareForReuse] fails to call [super prepareForReuse]. Make sure that this call is made in [TemplateListViewCell prepareForReuse]:
- (void)prepareForReuse
{
//...
[super prepareForReuse];
}
One change needs to be made to -[TemplateListViewCell toggleDetail:]. The line
[self setExpanded:isExpanded];
needs to be replaced by
[[[self listView] delegate] listView:[self listView] setExpanded:isExpanded atRow:[self row]];
Once you've set up your PXListView's delegate to properly handle the new delegate methods, you're ready to override [PXListViewCell setExpanded:] in your subclass TemplateListViewCell:
- (void)setExpanded:(BOOL)expanded
{
if (expanded) {
//add detail subviews
} else {
//remove detail subviews
}
[super setExpanded:expanded];
}
Replace //add detail subviews with your own code which programmatically adds the detail subviews that you want and replace //remove detail subviews with code to remove the detail subviews that you want, checking to see that they are present first.
You write
i want to add some extra contain (Controller) on it
It sounds like you want to add view controllers rather than views to your TemplateListViewCell. To do this, use an NSBox and set the box's contentView to your view controller's view. (For details on this, see this answer.)
If you plan on just showing a single view controller's view in an NSBox on the expanded TemplateListViewCell, you can just (1) add a property to TemplateListViewCell referencing your view controller and (2) add an NSBox to TemplateListViewCell xib and set its contentView to the appropriate view controller's view on [cell setExpanded:YES] and set its contentView to nil on [cell setExpanded:NO].
I'm building a collection of forms each of which contains several fields. Some of the fields are UITextFields that will display a date. I've created a new class called DatePickerTextField, a descendant of UITextField. When a DatePickerTextField is tapped I'd like for a UIDatePicker control to appear in a popover.
My question is how do I use the storyboard to implement the popover? I can do a segue when there is a specific, visible control in the scene. But how do I represent a generic popover in the scene that I can attach to any instantiated DatePickerTextField that becomes active?
You can create segue that is not connected to any control but I don't think that there would be way to specify anchor point for popover from code. Another option is to create ViewController that is not connected with any segue. When editing storyboard, create ViewController which will be placed in popover, select it and navigate to Utilities pane->Attributes Inspector. Set Size to Freeform, Status Bar to None, specify unique Identifier that will be used to instantiate ViewController from code. Now you can change the size of ViewController by selecting its View and navigating to Utilities pane->Size Inspector.
After that you can create popover from code:
- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender {
UIView *anchor = sender;
UIViewController *viewControllerForPopover =
[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"yourIdentifier"];
popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc]
initWithContentViewController:viewControllerForPopover];
[popover presentPopoverFromRect:anchor.frame
inView:anchor.superview
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
}
One caveat is that you need to hold reference to popover as ivar of your class, otherwise it'll crash because UIPopoverController would be released and deallocated after buttonPressed returns:
#interface MyViewController : UIViewController {
// ...
UIPopoverController *popover;
// ...
}
So, I had a similar issue, and in case others might benefit, I figured I'd share it, since I benefit so much from stackoverflow.
This solution allows you to set the anchor of a customizable popover segue. It also allows you to configure the segue to be modal or not (I could not find a way to prevent the segue by dimming the exterior context, so if someone knows how to do that, I would be interested in hearing it); this is accomplished by setting the passthrough views for the popover controller. I also added the capacity to specify a custom view, rather than the view of the source viewcontroller (since I needed this capacity); this portion is not critical to the solution.
DynamicPopoverSegue.h
#interface DynamicPopoverSegue : UIStoryboardPopoverSegue
#property BOOL isModal;
#property UIView* sourceView;
#property CGRect anchor;
#end
DynamicPopoverSegue.m
#implementation DynamicPopoverSegue
- (void)perform
{
if (!self.popoverController.popoverVisible)
{
UIViewController* dst = (UIViewController*)self.destinationViewController;
UIViewController* src = (UIViewController*)self.sourceViewController;
UIView* inView = _sourceView ? _sourceView : src.view;
self.popoverController.contentViewController = dst;
if (!_isModal)
{
[self.popoverController setPassthroughViews:[[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:inView, nil]];
}
[self.popoverController presentPopoverFromRect:_anchor
inView:inView
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny
animated:YES];
}
}
#end
Then you just set your segue to "Custom" in the storyboard, and set the segue class to "DynamicPopoverSegue". In my case, since I wanted to associate it with dynamic layers in a view, I could not set the anchor, so I created the segue by control clicking from the view controller icon in the bar beneath my view controller to the view controller I was using to present the popupover.
To call the popover segue:
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"MyPopoverSegue" sender:self];
And to configure the popover segue:
- (void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender
{
if ([[segue identifier] isEqualToString:#"MyPopoverSegue"])
{
DynamicPopoverSegue* popoverSegue = (DynamicPopoverSegue*)segue;
// set the anchor to wherever you want it to be
popoverSegue.anchor = _destinationFrame;
}
}
- (IBAction)pressItemChooseOprateRoom:(id)sender {
if (isPad){
// UIView *anchor = sender;
UIViewController *viewControllerForPopover =
[self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"OperateRoomList"];
_myPopover = [[UIPopoverController alloc]
initWithContentViewController:viewControllerForPopover];
CGRect rc=[self getBarItemRc:sender];
[_myPopover presentPopoverFromRect:rc
inView:self.view
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
[MLControl shared].popover =self;
// [self perfformSegueWithIdentifier:SEGUE_POP_OPERATEROOM sender:self];
}else{
[self iphoneOpenOperateRoomList];
/* [self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"iPhonePushOperateRoom" sender:self];
*/
}
}
-(void)iphoneOpenOperateRoomList{
UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:#"Main" bundle:nil];
UIViewController *vc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"OperateRoomList"];
// if (!index.showTabBar) {
// vc.hidesBottomBarWhenPushed = YES;
// }
[self.navigationController pushViewController:vc animated:YES];
}
Just used the answer from Jonnywho for my SWIFT project. In case you need it:
Here's the SWIFT version:
let anchor: UIView = sender
var viewControllerForPopover = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("GameAboutViewController") as! UIViewController?
let popover = UIPopoverController(contentViewController: viewControllerForPopover!)
popover.presentPopoverFromRect(anchor.frame, inView: anchor, permittedArrowDirections: UIPopoverArrowDirection.Any, animated: true)
Add a UIView in the scene dock.
You can add it as a subview to any existing view on the view controller.
You can then toggle it's isHidden property as you require.
You can add multiple such subviews and create many such popups.
This technique will save you from setting up a new View Controller and using segues.
Greetings all,
I am a noob and I have been trying to work through this for a few days.
I am adding images to a view via UItouch. The view contains a background on top of which the new images are add. How do I clear the images I am adding from the subview, without getting rid of the UIImage that is the background. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks in Advance.
here is the code:
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *) event {
NSUInteger numTaps = [[touches anyObject] tapCount];
if (numTaps==2) {
imageCounter.text =#"two taps registered";
//__ remove images
UIView* subview;
while ((subview = [[self.view subviews] lastObject]) != nil)
[subview removeFromSuperview];
return;
}else {
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint touchPoint = [touch locationInView:self.view];
CGRect myImageRect = CGRectMake((touchPoint.x -40), (touchPoint.y -45), 80.0f, 90.0f);
UIImageView *myImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:myImageRect];
[myImage setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"pg6_dog_button.png"]];
myImage.opaque = YES; // explicitly opaque for performance
[self.view addSubview:myImage];
[myImage release];
[imagesArray addObject:myImage];
NSNumber *arrayCount =[self.view.subviews count];
viewArrayCount.text =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",arrayCount];
imageCount=imageCount++;
imageCounter.text =[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%d",imageCount];
}
}
What you need is a way of distinguishing the added UIImageView objects from the background UIImageView. There are two ways I can think of to do this.
Approach 1: Assign added UIImageView objects a special tag value
Each UIView object has a tag property which is simply an integer value that can be used to identify that view. You could set the tag value of each added view to 7 like this:
myImage.tag = 7;
Then, to remove the added views, you could step through all of the subviews and only remove the ones with a tag value of 7:
for (UIView *subview in [self.view subviews]) {
if (subview.tag == 7) {
[subview removeFromSuperview];
}
}
Approach 2: Remember the background view
Another approach is to keep a reference to the background view so you can distinguish it from the added views. Make an IBOutlet for the background UIImageView and assign it the usual way in Interface Builder. Then, before removing a subview, just make sure it's not the background view.
for (UIView *subview in [self.view subviews]) {
if (subview != self.backgroundImageView) {
[subview removeFromSuperview];
}
}
A more swiftly code for approach #1 in only one functional line of code :
self.view.subviews.filter({$0.tag == 7}).forEach({$0.removeFromSuperview()})
