When adding an IBAction by ctrl + drag it is possible to see this menu:
But how can I access it when IBAction is already created? How can I see or edit the values selected in this menu?
You can check IBAction already existed in xib or storyboard by click on view / view controller -> on the right menu, select Show the connections inspector
Then at the bottom, check Received Actions section:

I want to show a popover in my iPad app. but while dragging from one view controller to another in Xcode 8. it is giving me only three options segue ,modal and custom.
It is not showing show as popover.
I have attached image url for my problem.
What should i do?
I think you are not using "Size classes"
So goto your Storyboard select any ViewController and then goto right side window select "Show the File Inspector" option in which check checkboxes named:
* Use AutoLayout
* Use Size Classes
like this screenshot
I just started to learn ios programming this week.... When I connection the button from storyboard to the swift code I forgot to change the connection to Action. So can anyone tell to how to edit it? Plus, if I don't want to use any of the connections how can I delete it? thanks!
Select your UI element in interface builder, open the Utilities panel and the Connections inspector should show all of your IBOutlets and IBActions.
Here you can remove a connection by pressing the "X" icon.
When you right click on your UIButton as follows,
you can see Send Events, under which there is Touch Up inside which shows the action clickMe it is connected to. You can delete it by pressing delete, x sign, next to it.
And then to bind the button with other action, select and drag from Touch Up Inside and release on your selected action method implementation on your view controller implementation.
To modify any Storyboard Connections:
Select your storyboard
Select the view you want to modify
Open the Utilities column (right most button in the top right corner of XCode).
In Utilities column, select Connections Inspector (right most button; looks like an arrow)
Click on the "X" for connections you want to remove.
If you want to trigger a callback when the button is selected:
Create a method in your view controller (i.e. -(IBAction)buttonCallback:(id)sender{...} )
Go to your Storyboard
Hold Ctrl and click on the UIButton, now drag the cursor to your view controller and release.
The method buttonCallback should show up, just click it.
Lately, when I try to add a seque to my UITableView cell using the storyboard:
Xcode is auto-adding an info icon / "Accessory Button" to the cell:
I know I can remove it like so:
However, there appear to be other issues that might also be symptoms of whatever is causing this behavior, but that's a separate question... My question here is why is Xcode adding it in the first place? It's never done this before when I've added storyboard seques...
During creation of the segue you have selected "Accessory Action" in the segue action popover. If you do this Xcode will set the accessory to "Detail Disclosure", because you need a tappable accessory to have an accessory action.
Select a Segue in the upper part of the popover. Those are Selection Segues, which are triggered when you select the cell.
This does explain your other issue as well. Because your segue is connected to the accessory, which you remove. So there is no way to actually trigger your segue.
Select the cell and go to the attributes inspector
Scroll down to Accessory
In the drop down menu you will be having etail Disclosure selected
Change it to Disclosure Indicator
There are two different behaviors for the segues.
You can see them on your inspector: triggered segues.
If you choose the accessory action, Xcode automatically add an accessory button (the circle).
If you choose the selection action, you have no accessory button.
How do I reorder the initial view's tabbar controller elements without having to delete all the segues and re connect them manually in the desired order? Is there a way to change the order of these after they have been hooked up?
I was able to do this by just dragging them around in xcode 4.4 but that option seems to be non available in xcode 4.5.
Hopefully, this is possible from within the storyboard mode. But if it's only possible programmatically, that's ok too, just looking for any proper way to accomplish this without having to delete them all and re hook them up.
For example, how would I move the 'Home' item to first position?
The positions in each view are associated with the positions on the bottom bar of the Tab Bar Controller. If you reorder that bar you will reorder your views. You can reorder them by drag and drop on your interface builder.
In your example just select Home in your Tab Bar Controller and drag it to the first position.
If you have problems dragging and dropping try to select first your Tab View Controller or exit your XCode and open it again (like #thepumpkin1979 and #Rick pointed out).
Just edit the xml file and it will work.
Click on your "storyboard" and click the most right of the 3 buttons in "Editor".
This will show up an xml file on the left which u can edit anyway you wish.
Inside that file you should see xml tag "tabBar", inside it is "items", inside this is "tabBarItem".
All your tabBar items will be listed. You may cut and paste them in the order you wish.
I just did it now in Xcode 4.5.2.
Hope it also works for you too.
Ps. I am new to iOS so I can't use all the right Xcode names.
I think you can control+drag the tab item to reorder.
Drag and drop should work
You can drag the bar Item to the left to rearrange its position from the Storyboard.
I'm following the following tutorial that was made in xCode3
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBnPfAtswgw
As I'm using xCode4, I followed everything until the part where she changed the class of the first tab to UINavigationController as I didn't got that option! Please help.

You can do it without having to delete and drag new controllers in:
To change the type of an object:
From within Xcode 4, open your .xib file. If the interface builder object viewer isn't expanded, make it so by dragging it's right boarder out, or clicking that little 'play' button at the bottom.
Expand the Tab Bar Controller object to see it's children, and select the object you wish to change
Then choose it's Class type from the right panel, Identity Inspector. (To display the Identity Inspector, go menu: View > Utilities > Identity Inspector).
You can open and close that right panel using the buttons on the top right of Xcode. You can get to the various utilities by clicking the utility buttons, or through View > Utilities.
To rearrange tabs in the Tab Bar Controller, drag and drop them in the interface builder object viewer (this will change their position in the actual tab bar too).
I found alternative solution by deleting the default created tabs and drag new controllers which have the classes I need in my app.
