I have a NSTableView which contains two columns, a NSTextField and a NSProgressIndicator object on each row. When I scroll up or down the NSProgressIndicator objects flicker, the same occurs when I select the text contained in the NSTextField. Does anyone know why?
This is the code I am using for creating the NSProgressIndicator objects in the 'viewForTableColumn' method:
...
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"Progress"]) {
NSProgressIndicator* progressIndicator = (NSProgressIndicator*)cellView.nextKeyView;
NSString *stringPercentage = [dictionary objectForKey:#"Percentage"];
[[progressIndicator animator] setDoubleValue:[stringPercentage doubleValue]];
}
...
Note: NSTextField's are only selectable (not editable).
I could fix this by using:
[progressIndicator setUsesThreadedAnimation:NO];
So that the final code is:
...
if ([identifier isEqualToString:#"Progress"]) {
NSProgressIndicator* progressIndicator = (NSProgressIndicator*)cellView.nextKeyView;
NSString *stringPercentage = [dictionary objectForKey:#"Percentage"];
[[progressIndicator animator] setDoubleValue:[stringPercentage doubleValue]];
[progressIndicator setUsesThreadedAnimation:NO];
}
...

I am using NSSplitview of which upper half is NSTableView and lower is NSTabview with 2 items. Each NStabViewItem has a NSTextview. All are defined in nib file.
Now on selection of row of NSTableview, I load content of file and set it on NSTextview of NSTabViewItem. so NSTabview items I load depending on what rows of NSTableView is selected.
However I observe appreciable delay of 5-6 seconds to see the text visible on NSTextview of NSTabViewItem of NSTabView.But if I hover the mouse in the NSTabView region the content of NSTextview of NSTabViewItem of NSTabview is shown immediately.
Can anybody guide me what is the issue?
I am only using NSTableView delegate, Not tabview delegate. I just load the content in respective NSTextView of each NSTabViewItem of tabview.
Code Snippet:
- (void)tableViewSelectionDidChange:(NSNotification *)notification
{
if ([mTableView selectedRow] != -1)
{
selectedNode = [mLogContainer objectAtIndex:[mTableView selectedRow]];
[self manageTabView:[selectedNode logfile]];
}
}
-(void) manageTabView:(NSString*) fname
{
[self loadTextView:mDetailView withFilePath:fname];
NSString* summaryFile = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#.summary",fname];
[self loadTextView:mSummaryView withFilePath:summaryFile];
[mTabView selectTabViewItemAtIndex:0];
}
-(void) setContent:(NSString*) content forView:(NSTextView*) textView
{
NSString* fileContent = [[NSString alloc] init];
[fileContent stringWithContentsOfFile:content
encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding error:nil];
NSTextStorage *textStorage = [textView textStorage];
[textStorage beginEditing];
[[textStorage mutableString] setString:fileContent];
[textStorage endEditing];
[textView setNeedsDisplay:YES];
}
How much ever stupid it may sound, but the problem of this weird behavior was that the NStextview in the nib frame was a bit bigger than the NSTabviewItem view. Not sure what is the reason for this behavior but when I re-sized the NSTextView .. Everything is working fine.
I am new to OS X and have started dealing with NSCollectionView. What I am trying to do is to take show NSCollectionView with array of imageView an labels. And on the selection of the image I want to open a new viewController class. I am able to show array of images and labels in collection view but I am completely lost on how to go to new view with the selection made in NSCollectionView and how to show the image selected to the new viewController class.
I am having an NSTabView and in that I am having customView in which I am showing CollectionView. And in awakeFromNib I am doing this to populate my collectionView
-(void)awakeFromNib
{
arrItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc]init];
NSMutableArray *imageArray=[[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"Baby-Girl-Wallpaper-2012-7.jpg",#"Cute-Little-Baby-Girl.jpg",#"Joker_HD_Wallpaper_by_RiddleMeThisJoker.jpg",#"The-Dark-Angel-Wallpaper-HD.jpg",#"hd-wallpapers-1080p_hdwallpapersarena_dot_com.jpg",#"lion_hd_wallpaper.jpg",#"Ganesh_painting.jpg",#"krishna-wallpaper.jpg",#"LeoN_userpic_79630_fire_lion_by_alex_barrera.jpg",#"273483.png",#"japan_digital_nature-wide.jpg", nil];
NSMutableArray *imageName = [[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:#"Baby-Girl",#"Cute-Little",#"Joker",#"The-Dark",#"hd-wallpapers", #"lion", #"Ganesh", #"krishna", #"LeoN_userpic",#"273483.png",#"japan_digital", nil];
for(int i = 0; i<[imageArray count]; i++)
{
STImageCollectionModal * img1 = [[STImageCollectionModal alloc] init];
img1.image = [NSImage imageNamed:[imageArray objectAtIndex:i]];
img1.imageName = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",[imageName objectAtIndex:i]];
[arrItems addObject:img1];
}
[collectionView setContent:arrItems];
}
Later I created a new class named "STCollectionView" subclass of NSCollectionView and assigned the collectionView class to "STCollectionView" and with the help of setSelectionIndexes method I tried getting the index of the selected item by this
- (void)setSelectionIndexes:(NSIndexSet *)indexes
NSLog(#"%ld",[indexes firstIndex]);
But this method is getting called twice and whenever i put "super setSelectionIndexes" it gives me garbage value.
I am searching it all over but unable to find any kind of solution. Please help..
Thank you in advance.
Your question is confusing me.What i am thinking you can do this task simply by adding UICollectionView and in UICollectionView add custom UICollectionViewCell.In custom UICollectionViewCell add UIImageView and UILabel.
in the method
- (UICollectionViewCell *)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView cellForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
static NSString *identifier = #"ReuseID";
UICollectionViewCell *cell = [collectionView dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier:identifier forIndexPath:indexPath];
cell.imageView.image = [UIImage imagewithNmaed:#"your Image name"];
cell.label.text = #"image Named";
return cell;
}
and in storyBoard hold CLT+drag to your UIViewController.In the method prepareForSgue Method pass data to your Next viewController.
UIBarButtonItem does not extend UIView, so there is nothing like a frame property.
But is there any way I can get what is it's CGRect frame, relative to the application UIWindow?
Do you like to use private APIs? If yes,
UIView* view = thatItem.view;
return [view convertRect:view.bounds toView:nil];
Of course no one wants this when targeting the AppStore. A more unreliable method, and also uses undocumented features, but will pass Apple's test, is to loop through the subviews to look for the corresponding button item.
NSMutableArray* buttons = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (UIControl* btn in theToolbarOrNavbar.subviews)
if ([btn isKindOfClass:[UIControl class]])
[buttons addObject:btn];
UIView* view = [buttons objectAtIndex:index];
[buttons release];
return [view convertRect:view.bounds toView:nil];
The index is the index to your bar item in the array of .items, after removing all blank items. This assumes the buttons are arranged in increasing order, which may not be. A more reliable method is to sort the buttons array in increasing .origin.x value. Of course this still assumes the bar button item must inherit the UIControl class, and are direct subviews of the toolbar/nav-bar, which again may not be.
As you can see, there are a lot of uncertainty when dealing with undocumented features. However, you just want to pop up something under the finger right? The UIBarButtonItem's .action can be a selector of the form:
-(void)buttonClicked:(UIBarButtonItem*)sender event:(UIEvent*)event;
note the event argument — you can obtain the position of touch with
[[event.allTouches anyObject] locationInView:theWindow]
or the button view with
[[event.allTouches anyObject] view]
Therefore, there's no need to iterate the subviews or use undocumented features for what you want to do.
I didn't see this option posted (which in my opinion is much simpler), so here it is:
UIView *barButtonView = [barButtonItem valueForKey:#"view"];
In iOS 3.2, there's a much easier way to show an Action Sheet popover from a toolbar button. Merely do something like this:
- (IBAction)buttonClicked:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender event:(UIEvent *)event
{
UIActionSheet *popupSheet;
// Prepare your action sheet
[popupSheet showFromBarButtonItem:sender animated:YES];
}
This is the implementation I use for my WEPopover project: (https://github.com/werner77/WEPopover):
#implementation UIBarButtonItem(WEPopover)
- (CGRect)frameInView:(UIView *)v {
UIView *theView = self.customView;
if (!theView.superview && [self respondsToSelector:#selector(view)]) {
theView = [self performSelector:#selector(view)];
}
UIView *parentView = theView.superview;
NSArray *subviews = parentView.subviews;
NSUInteger indexOfView = [subviews indexOfObject:theView];
NSUInteger subviewCount = subviews.count;
if (subviewCount > 0 && indexOfView != NSNotFound) {
UIView *button = [parentView.subviews objectAtIndex:indexOfView];
return [button convertRect:button.bounds toView:v];
} else {
return CGRectZero;
}
}
#end
As long as UIBarButtonItem (and UITabBarItem) does not inherit from UIView—for historical reasons UIBarItem inherits from NSObject—this craziness continues (as of this writing, iOS 8.2 and counting ... )
The best answer in this thread is obviously #KennyTM's. Don't be silly and use the private API to find the view.
Here's a oneline Swift solution to get an origin.x sorted array (like Kenny's answer suggests):
let buttonFrames = myToolbar.subviews.filter({
$0 is UIControl
}).sorted({
$0.frame.origin.x < $1.frame.origin.x
}).map({
$0.convertRect($0.bounds, toView:nil)
})
The array is now origin.x sorted with the UIBarButtonItem frames.
(If you feel the need to read more about other people's struggles with UIBarButtonItem, I recommend Ash Furrow's blog post from 2012: Exploring UIBarButtonItem)
I was able to get Werner Altewischer's WEpopover to work by passing up the toolbar along with the
UIBarButton:
Mod is in WEPopoverController.m
- (void)presentPopoverFromBarButtonItem:(UIBarButtonItem *)item toolBar:(UIToolbar *)toolBar
permittedArrowDirections:(UIPopoverArrowDirection)arrowDirections
animated:(BOOL)animated
{
self.currentUIControl = nil;
self.currentView = nil;
self.currentBarButtonItem = item;
self.currentArrowDirections = arrowDirections;
self.currentToolBar = toolBar;
UIView *v = [self keyView];
UIButton *button = nil;
for (UIView *subview in toolBar.subviews)
{
if ([[subview class].description isEqualToString:#"UIToolbarButton"])
{
for (id target in [(UIButton *)subview allTargets])
{
if (target == item)
{
button = (UIButton *)subview;
break;
}
}
if (button != nil) break;
}
}
CGRect rect = [button.superview convertRect:button.frame toView:v];
[self presentPopoverFromRect:rect inView:v permittedArrowDirections:arrowDirections animated:animated];
}
-(CGRect) getBarItemRc :(UIBarButtonItem *)item{
UIView *view = [item valueForKey:#"view"];
return [view frame];
}
You can get it from the UINavigationBar view. The navigationBar is a UIView which has 2 or 3 custom subviews for the parts on the bar.
If you know that the UIBarButtonItem is currently shown in the navbar on the right, you can get its frame from navbar's subviews array.
First you need the navigationBar which you can get from the navigationController which you can get from the UIViewController. Then find the right most subview:
UINavigationBar* navbar = curViewController.navigationController.navigationBar;
UIView* rightView = nil;
for (UIView* v in navbar.subviews) {
if (rightView==nil) {
rightView = v;
} else if (v.frame.origin.x > rightView.frame.origin.x) {
rightView = v; // this view is further right
}
}
// at this point rightView contains the right most subview of the navbar
I haven't compiled this code so YMMV.
This is not the best solution and from some point of view it's not right solution and we can't do like follow because we access to object inside UIBarBattonItem implicitly, but you can try to do something like:
UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 30, 30)];
[button setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Menu_Icon"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[button addTarget:self action:#selector(didPressitem) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
UIBarButtonItem *item = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:button];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = item;
CGPoint point = [self.view convertPoint:button.center fromView:(UIView *)self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem];
//this is like view because we use UIButton like "base" obj for
//UIBarButtonItem, but u should note that UIBarButtonItem base class
//is NSObject class not UIView class, for hiding warning we implicity
//cast UIBarButtonItem created with UIButton to UIView
NSLog(#"point %#", NSStringFromCGPoint(point));
as result i got next:
point {289, 22}
Before implement this code, be sure to call [window makeKeyAndVisible] in your Applition delegate application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: method!
- (void) someMethod
{
CGRect rect = [barButtonItem convertRect:barButtonItem.customview.bounds toView:[self keyView]];
}
- (UIView *)keyView {
UIWindow *w = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] keyWindow];
if (w.subviews.count > 0) {
return [w.subviews objectAtIndex:0];
} else {
return w;
}
}
I handled it as follows:
- (IBAction)buttonClicked:(UIBarButtonItem *)sender event:(UIEvent *)event
{
UIView* view = [sender valueForKey:#"view"]; //use KVO to return the view
CGRect rect = [view convertRect:view.bounds toView:self.view];
//do stuff with the rect
}
I have a problem, I have created a project window based application in xcode, then I create a UITabBarController that manages two views all programmatically, the second view is a tableView and I want to see in the top a UINavigationController, I have tried a lot but I don't know how to have a UINavigationController in the second view. this is the code:
ProjectAppDelegate.m
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
//Creo una tabBarController
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
//Create the two view controllers
UIViewController *vc1 = [[Visuale1ViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *vc2 = [[Visuale2ViewController alloc] init];
//Make an array containing the two view controllers
NSArray *viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, vc2, nil];
//The viewControllers array retains vc1 and vc2, we can release
//our ownership of them in this method
[vc1 release];
[vc2 release];
//Attach them to the tab bar controller
[tabBarController setViewControllers:viewControllers];
//Setto la tabBarController come rootViewController di window
[window setRootViewController:tabBarController];
//The window retain tabBarController, possiamo lasciare il nostro riferimento
[tabBarController release];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
Visuale1ViewController.h
#implementation Visuale1ViewController
- (id)init{
[super initWithNibName:#"Visuale1ViewController" bundle:nil];
//Get the tab bar item
UITabBarItem *tbi = [self tabBarItem];
//Give it a label
[tbi setTitle:#"Visuale 1"];
return self;
}
// The designated initializer. Override if you create the controller programmatically and want to perform customization that is not appropriate for viewDidLoad.
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibName bundle:(NSBundle *)bundle {
return [self init];
}
Visuale2ViewController.h
#implementation AnswerViewController
- (id)init{
//Call the superclass's designated initializer
/*[super initWithNibName:nil
bundle:nil];*/
[super initWithStyle:UITableViewStyleGrouped];
answers = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
for (int i = 0; i<10 ; i++) {
[answers addObject:[Answer DefaultAnswer]];
}
//Get the tab bar item
UITabBarItem *tbi = [self tabBarItem];
//Give it a laber
[tbi setTitle:#"Visuale 2"];
return self;
}
- (id)initWithStyle:(UITableViewStyle)style{
return [self init];
}
//All below are all methods to work the table view, and all go well, the only problem it's the UINavigationController, to manage then the detail of the table...
Now I want to know how I can put a UINavigationController in the second view. I try do this, in ProjectAppDelegate.m:
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
//Creo una tabBarController
UITabBarController *tabBarController = [[UITabBarController alloc] init];
//Create the two view controllers
UIViewController *vc1 = [[Visuale1ViewController alloc] init];
UIViewController *vc2 = [[Visuale2ViewController alloc] init];
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc2];
//Make an array containing the two view controllers
NSArray *viewControllers = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:vc1, navController, nil];
//The viewControllers array retains vc1 and vc2, we can release
//our ownership of them in this method
[vc1 release];
[vc2 release];
//Attach them to the tab bar controller
[tabBarController setViewControllers:viewControllers];
//Setto la tabBarController come rootViewController di window
[window setRootViewController:tabBarController];
}
In this way I can visualize the NavigationBar, but I lost the name of the SecondTabBar. Sorry for my english, how I can do this?
Yes in the second view you have to set title as
[self.navigationItem setTitle:#"Visuale2"];
For TabBar title-
UITabBar *tabBar = [self.tabBarController tabBar];
NSArray *tabBarItems = [tabBar items];
UITabBarItem *secondTabBarItem = [tabBarItems objectAtIndex:1];
[secondTabBarItem setTitle:#"Visuale2"];
I left the code as it was and I added in init Visale2ViewController this:
UIImage *i = [UIImage imageNamed:#"Hypno.png"];
[tbi setImage:i];
and now in can see the text Visuale2 in tabBar and the image...i don't know why...
You need to set the tabBarItem property for your UINavigationController. Something like this.
UITabBarItem *tabItem = [[UITabBarItem alloc] initWithTitle:#"Visuale 2" image:nil tag:1];
UIViewController *vc2 = [[Visuale2ViewController alloc] init];
navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:vc2];
navController.tabBarItem = tabItem;
After looking at it,the scenario seems to be same like me.What I faced for the first time when doing Tab+Navigation.
I am sure that there is some problem with your Tab+Navigation based application. Although it shows the Tab as well as navigation are not able to navigate the basic flow.And it is very difficult to solve your problem with such less code.
Instead of this, I had an alternate solution for the same:
Once you have a tab bar in a XIB, the easiest way to approach this is to drag a UINavigationController object over from the Library window (looks like a left nav bar button on a gold background) into the Tree View for your tab bar (the text only view, not the GUI). Place it under the tab bar, then drag your existing view controller under the tab bar controller instead of under the tab bar.
When you go to view that tab you should then see a navigation bar on the top of it... if you are loading the navigation controller from another xib, you'll modify the nav bar in the tab bar xib.
else you can below you can follow the best url for the same:

Hope this will surely solve your problem.
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()})
