Highlight subtitle's playing line- iOS - ios

I'm trying to make an Karaoke app and I want to show at least three lines of lyrics and highlight the line which is playing. Now I'm adding an .srt file as subtitle. I want to know how I can show the subtitle in a textview and detect the playing line and highlight it?
Subtitle example:
00:00:01,242 —> 00:00:02,550
line one of lyrics
2
00:00:02,551 —> 00:00:04,104
line two of lyrics
25
00:02:05,458 —> 00:02:07,158
line three of lyrics
or if I need to add any other type of text for my subtitle?
I was searching and found a solution that I can use .kar file but I couldn't find any example or explanation of it's instruction.
Thanks in advance :)

Nativescript iOS Action Bar Subtitle

I'm attempting to put a subtitle under a title in the action bar on iOS. While there is this solution for Android it doesn't work on iOS at all. Is there any way to do this on iOS?
<ActionBar [title]="This works" [subTitle]="I want a subtitle here"></ActionBar>
iOS doesn't have a subtitle option. But you could use a custom title view and wrap two labels one below another.
iOS has some sort of subtitle, but it is named as prompt (for more detail, you can see the doc for UINavigationBar).
Unfortunately, you can't set its value from XML, so you need to use some handler - I create simple playground to demonstrate prompt property.

Xcode 7 (7A218 ) search in file behaviour change

Xcode 7 (7A218) changed the default search in file preference.
In case that there are more than one occurrence of the searched text the next item will not move to the beginning of the file. It used to be circular, but now it is just one way.
Is there any way I can alter this to switch back to circular?

Xcode/Objective-C implementing a players turn toggle

I'm new to the whole VCM programming structure and more specifically to objective-c.
Right now i'm working on an iOS app that is like the game "connect 4." This Xcode project is my practice project that i've been using to play around/learn how to make iOS apps so there are several files and lots of commented out code, so Ill try my best to provide the necessary content from my project.
App State:
Right now I have a 10x10 grid of blue square/buttons. I'm still in the early stages of implementing the functionality of the game. Rather than making each square its own button, I created 10 frames and 10 buttons. Each row is a single button, which is broken up into 10 squares.
I currently have the squares change their color to red and become disabled once clicked. If I click multiple times.. the squares turn red when pressed. Heres a screenshot example run:
What Im wanting to do:
I want to build off of what I have, but not exactly sure how to keep track of which "players turn" it is. For example.. I want the first clicked square to turn red, representing player1's move. I want the second click to turn the button, say green, representing player2's move.. then the next move will be player 1's move.
I know Ill have to make sure the button is/was ENABLED and valid before switching which players turn it is.
How should I go about doing this? This is more of a general question, but I'll provide needed code snippets if necessary. Thanks!
In your .h file add an integer (variable)
int Turn = 1;
In your .m file you can do:
if(Turn == 1)
{
// Player one is playing
Turn = 2;
}
else if(Turn == 2)
{
// Player two is playing
Turn = 1;
}

Change found text highlight in a Firefox extension

I'm developing an extension for Firefox which searches terms in a page. And I'd like to change found text highlight color and background. For example, I search for a letter "s" and by default it's selected with a blue rectangle with white text color. So I want to change the blue to the red.
How could I do this via JS?
Edit0:
To select a found text I use document.createRange() and selection.addRange() methods.
I don't know how the default finder selects a found term and applies background to it.
So maybe the 'range' method is not the best.
But I think I'm searching a way to highlight this created range...
Edit1:
Now I've partially resolved the color-changing preoblem. Just add a CSS rule with ::-moz-selection and red background when a text is found and selected. Then for document 'onmousedown' I remove this rule not to leave the default selection as red.
But a new problem is when I find say a digit and it gets a selection the background of that selection is gray (so it looks like a text selection of an inactive window). Then when I click with my mouse somewhere in the document text and press F3 the extension finds the next digit and selects it with the red background. And next findings work right (with red background).
So my purpose is change that initial gray background to red.
Maybe I should change the inactive selection color...
Edit2:
Now I updated my JS code:
var selection=w.getSelection()
var range=w.document.createRange()
range.setStart(foundNode,foundOffset)
range.setEnd(foundNode,foundOffset+foundLength)
selection.removeAllRanges()
selection.addRange(range)
var controller=gBrowser.docShell.QueryInterface(Ci.nsIInterfaceRequestor)
.getInterface(Ci.nsISelectionDisplay)
.QueryInterface(Ci.nsISelectionController);
controller.setDisplaySelection(controller.SELECTION_ATTENTION)
controller.repaintSelection(controller.SELECTION_NORMAL)
Thanks to Noitidart's answer I found some information on how to use nsISelectionController XPCOM interface to select found text with background. Still I can't set a custom color for this background so that it be different from the default color of found text in Firefox. But setting the ui.textSelectBackgroundAttention preference in about:config to desired color will work with both my extension and default find engine.
I've found that SELECTION_ATTENTION constant is responsible for that background color and the setDisplaySelection method links the color to the selected text. But I couldn't find any implementation of this method. I saw only nsISelectionController idl file with its structure but no correspondent .cpp or .js file implementing this .idl. So I don't have information on how the color is set.
Edit3:
Recently I added the "Highlight All" functionality to my extension. And a new question about color of this highlight has rised. Using the above tecnique will show all the matches with green find color (by default). But it's more comfortable to use a different color to distinguish the current match and others.
So I couldn't find another helpful nsISelectionController constant for the "Highlight All" selection. I simply set this selection to 'DISABLED' type and changed the ui.textSelectBackgroundDisabled about:config pref. This pref is obviously for the selected text background of an inactive window. And it worked for me.
controller.setDisplaySelection(controller.SELECTION_DISABLED)
Another thing is that I'm not sure that the controller.repaintSelection() in the previous Edit is necessary. I guess the selection didn't work without it when I started my experiments with this stuff. But now I removed that line and all still work.
Plus:
And some additional links if somebody will need:
nsISelectionController Reference

Forum question about highlight
about:config prefs for highlight
An Add-on using a similar tecnique
Finder.jsm and other sources
Also I used some files from Firefox source archive: Firefox 33 Source:
- nsISelectionController.idl [\content\base\public\]
- nsTypeAheadFind.cpp [\toolkit\components\typeaheadfind\]
- Finder.jsm [\toolkit\modules\]
- findbar.xml [\toolkit\content\widgets\]
I asked this question to quicksilver via email and this is what he told me:
You might find this one helpful: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XPCOM_Interface_Reference/nsISelectionController
I'm hardly the master you think I am, actually. :) To change those colors I just change the values for preferences:
ui.textHighlightBackground
ui.textHighlightForeground
ui.textSelectBackgroundAttention -> SELECTION_ATTENTION, it's not a highlight, it's a normal selection (as you would select some text with your mouse and it would turn the regular blue blackground, in windows at least) but it's given "attention", so it has the green background that the find operation reports. Basically it's a way of showing the user "Here I am!!" after firefox automatically selecs the text he searched for.
And I really don't know most of those contants, SELECTION_NORMAL is for normal text selection, like it would be when you select text with your mouse, SELECTION_FIND is for the highlights, and I only know the ON/HIDDEN/OFF/DISABLED ones which are self-explanatory. SELECTION_SPELLCHECK is probably for the auto-correct when you are typing in an editable content node, but I'm just guessing that one from the name.
Also, as far as I know, it's not possible to just create custom selection ranges/contants, as the code simply won't recognize them without editing the C++ code as well. Which is actually one of the reasons I haven't implemented https://github.com/Quicksaver/FindBar-Tweak/issues/76 yet.

How can i right align a Text Field in the settings bundle of an app , iOS?

I have in my settings bundle of my application two text fields , where the user can give latitude and longitude values.
The bundle settings look like this :
As you see the values (43.46 and -3.81) are left aligned.
Is there a way to right align them so it looks better?
It seems the only answer to this question is to add spaces on the title of the text field , till your values move to the left side.
Is not very delicate , but looks better than this.
This worked for me in in-app settings view. I have not tried it with settings.
Open property list file as a source and paste the following to the for each entry you want right-aligned:
<key>IASKTextAlignment</key>
<string>IASKUITextAlignmentCenter</string>
Or do the same through the plist editor.
You can do that in different way. You have to add a Title preference item. and add titles and values inside that.
I have a screenshot here,
And the resulting settings screen will look like this,
