I would like to achieve a selected text like in the picture below.
But all existing answers use selectAll(nil) which displays this instead. See the little edit draggers ? I don't want them. Is that possible ?

I want to create a multi lined edit text that can hold buttons but also have the ability to add free form text.
It should behave like the tag text box of stackoverflow that is under the body of the question when you ask a question on stackoverflow.
I thought about one layout that holds buttons (e.g. tags) and an edit text right after said layout. But as I want it to be multi-lined and if there was a line break, I'm not sure how the edit text should behave, since it couldn't be a quadratic box anymore.
Can you point me in the right direction? I've seen a post about making parts of an edittext uneditable. I could do this and put buttons over it, but the buttons might be a little bigger than the underlying text.
Do you know of alternatives?
I hope you get the point, if not I'll draw the control.
You can achieve same by using FlowLayout. Keep on adding text/button view it will automatically wraps contents to next line
I`m starting in Objective-c this Year and I found nothing that could help me in the logic of how elaborate it:
Look!
I have a UITableView with a list of drugs. When I click on any medication, I'm taken to a DetailViewController that displays the text information about this drug. In this text, I want every time a drug name appear, it appears as if it were a “link”. So when the user clicks, it will be taken to other remedy detailviewcontroller without need to go back to the list of remedies! What is the better way to implement this?
I thought about passing an array with all drugs for DetailTableView controller via Segue, and then conduct a search for any of the remedies present in the text, but i don't know how to turn that word into a link, or set a function to become part of the text (the drug name) clickable
Just to make it clear, let's assume that we are reading the details of the text on the drug called Amoxicillin:
“Amoxicillin drug works better than erythromycin”
What I want is that the name Erythromycin become some kind of link, so when the user clicks on it, is brought to the screen details about erythromycin. Do you guys understand what i mean?
P.S.: I saw that the UITextView has an option called "Links" in attribute inspector, but i have no idea how to use it or if this is for what i want
Thank you all again!!
Use UITextView And select these attribute.
I have UITextView in which as the user types I would like to suggest a few words (like in a popup) as is displayed for misspelled words.
There are custom words that I have in a an array which should be used as suggestions
For example if the user starts to type "carpen" I would like to suggest "carpenter1", "carpenter2", "carpenter3", so that the user can select any one of the 3 suggestions or choose to type a new one.
UITextChecker
Is completionsForPartialWordRange:inString:language: something that I can use ? If so how can I make pass the array to the popup ?
Question:
How would I be able to achieve something like what is shown in the image ?
Let me know if there is a different approach
i need one more help.
First question is: I understood that the sections, text, images, etc on a MonoTouch.Dialog will be created dynamically. But can i have buttons as well? If yes, how can i have the events of that button binded.
Second question is : Basically i have a search text, and a button, on the click of the button, the text is sent to the Twitter-url, to get the tweets, these tweets need to be displayed, now they contain, images, texts, and reply and a favourite. Can the search result and the Search Button+Edit box, be the part of one ViewController?
But can i have buttons as well?
Element in the DialogViewController often act like buttons. But if you want a real UIButton you can do something like: Monotouch.Dialog two tables
Can the search result and the Search Button+Edit box, be the part of one ViewController?
I don't see any problem doing that. Use the code from the above link and add a EntryElement.
the text is sent to the Twitter-url, to get the tweets, these tweets need to be displayed
Have you looked at TweetStation ? It's an open source application that is based on MonoTouch.Dialog. It can likely help you answer questions on both fronts.
I have some textfield with text like "Click #button1, then #button2". Have you got any idea how to replace keywords by images ? I must do it in AS2 :/ I know there is htmlText in textField, but useing it I can only use one image, and image can only align left or right site.
Very advanced stuff. I can tell you there is no 'out of the box' solution like using html text fields or something similar. Especially if you want to mimic nearly html behaviour you have to code advanced routines that can : 1. recognize your keywords. You should google for tokenizers and 2. layout textfields according to occuring images and textblocks. Again, thats advanced!
