My controls got blurry when saw in hierarchy of view controllers of storyboard and hidden from actual view controller but when i run the code they are showing well on the simulator and real device. Please help me that how i can re-activate or show my hidden controls and they are also not hidden by inspector.
Please see the image : http://i.stack.imgur.com/EzPkK.png
It is because those views are not made in the size class any-any. Change the size class at the bottom to the one you originally created when you designed those views and they will appear normal again.

in my universal app I have an UITableViewController embedded in a UINavigationController. When I add a UIView to the top of the tableView and insert a UILabel which is centered in the container, the label is only visible on iPhone but not on iPad.
I tried creating a new testapp, only consisting of these two controllers, the view and the label. It works on both, iPhone and iPad. So I added two new controllers to my app in the same way and made the navigation controller the initial view controller. Label is visible on iPhone but not on iPad.
For me it seems, that I have changed some global settings in the app; on another view I have similar problems with stackViews, but I first concentrate on this "simple" problem...
Any ideas what might be wrong in my app-settings?
tableViewController embedded in navigationController
Take a UIViewController embedded in a UINavigationController. Add View, Label, and TableView and check it
Ok. Now I know what was the problem. Never have checked, what's going on with those size classes.
During development I changed from any/any to a smaller size, not knowing, that this is not only taking effect on the layout in the storyboard. Everything I added after changing did'nt show on iPad.
Solution: Select storyboard, in "File Inspector", uncheck "Use Size Classes"
I have a custom view which needs to be displayed on all the iPhone devices(4, 4S, 5, 5S, 6 and 6 Plus). When creating the custom view XIB, I have mentioned it as "Inferred" but it is not resizing for iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus devices. I am not able to figure out the issue. I am confused on what would be actual differences between "Inferred" and "Freeform". Can someone please explain the differences?
Inferred resizes the scene according to its parent scene. For example if you have a scene that is the size of an iPad and then you add a new scene to your storyboard and create a segue to it, it will automatically resize to the same size as the iPad scene (where the segue originates from).
Freeform ignores the above rule and you're able to size it as you see fit, in the utility pane on the right.
Both of these however have nothing to do with how the view is displayed and sized on actual devices. For that you need to use auto layout and constraints. Or springs and struts. Some even do it in code if they need more flexibility.
“Inferred” is the default setting for storyboards and it means the scene will show a navigation bar when it’s inside of a navigation controller, a tab bar when it’s inside of a tab bar controller, and so on. You could override these settings if you wanted to, but keep in mind they are here only to help you design your screens. The Simulated Metrics aren’t used during runtime, they’re just a visual design aid that shows what your screen will end up looking like.
"FreeForm" Usually you use the freeform property when you add the view controller as a child to another view controller programmatically and you really want to have that fixed size.If you push the view controller or you present it as modal view controller (and you use the modal presentation styles) then there is no need to use freeform.Also another use of the freeform property is to preview the actual size of your view controller when is presented as a modal view controller using existent presentation styles.
I have a simple view controller that have a UIImageview as background view.I add it from storyboard. It is shown well before.
But,I open this project today and find that the imageView just disappear in storyboard.
I also notice that the imageview become gray in here
Thanks
The answer
I setup this project in one size class but I see it in other.
Select the hidden view from the right panel (the one with Stars name), go to the attribute inspector and check if the view is installed in the current size class.
I have a simple linear chain of UIViewControllers.
The first one has a show segue to a NavigationViewController, then it goes on the same way with all the others.
When I switch from wCompact-hRegular to wRegular-hCompact to fix the landscape layouts the first viewcontroller doesn't allow me to do anything. The tree diagram at the left side of the storyboard screen shows the views but they are not written in black. They are transparent. Even if I select them and put the coordinates or dimensions nothing happens. There are only a button and a label. Others Controllers are all ok, they can be fixed. What is happening to the first one?
With XCode 6 you can add views, that are only visible in the selected size class (f.e. Compact + Compact). When you change to a different size class the views are disabled. To fix this navigate to the attributes inspector and select installed for any class sizes.
I am attempting to create a custom popover for an iPad application in landscape orientation. I created a new UITableViewController with static cells on my storyboard and set the size setting to "free form". I then set the size of the UITableView to my desired size. I connected a Modal segue from the parent controller to the new popover.
Then in the parent UIViewController I created a method that performs the segue through a custom presenter. After working through a bug in Apple's orientation handling routines, I got the popover to show at the correct location.
When I run the app, I then discovered that in the top right hand corner of the UITableView a white box is displayed that covers whatever I place in the UITableViewCell. The more cells I place in the table the longer this white box appears. So I believe it has something to do with the UITableViewCell not orienting properly although I have not figured out what yet.
I cannot seem to find what this box is, nor have I had any luck getting rid of it. Has anyone seen something like this? Any help to get this white box remove (or whatever is needed to get the cells working correctly again), will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
For anyone who is interested, I was able to work around this problem. It turns out that there is a bug in the modal segue logic that does not handle landscape orientation. So I created a XIB and presented that as my modal view. I still need to adjust things since it is landscape but the view displays correctly.
From what I understand this storyboard bug should be fixed soon.
