iPad Actionsheet not showing - ios

Question

I am trying to display action sheet in iPad which will contain 2 buttons and date pickerview.
I displayed the action sheet in iphone properly but when I try to display the action sheet in iPad its just displaying one thick black line.
Currently its looking like :
and code for displaying action sheet is
UIButton *btnClicked=(UIButton *)sender;
menu = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:nil
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:nil
destructiveButtonTitle:nil
otherButtonTitles:nil];
/* menu=[[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:#"This will remove this recipe from all synced devices as well. Are you sure?" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel" destructiveButtonTitle:#"Confirm Delete Recipe" otherButtonTitles:nil];*/
[menu setTag:121];
UILabel *titleLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10,5,300,20)];
[titleLabel setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"Trebuchet MS" size:18.0f]];
titleLabel.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
titleLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[titleLabel setNumberOfLines:1];
[menu addSubview: titleLabel];
UIButton *cancelButton = [UIButton buttonWithType: UIButtonTypeCustom];
cancelButton.frame = CGRectMake(30, 30, 124, 43);
[cancelButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"cancel_button.png"] forState: UIControlStateNormal];
[cancelButton addTarget:self action:#selector(cancelButtonClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
cancelButton.adjustsImageWhenHighlighted = YES;
cancelButton.tag=33;
[menu addSubview: cancelButton];
UIButton *okButton = [UIButton buttonWithType: UIButtonTypeCustom];
okButton.frame = CGRectMake(170, 30, 124, 43);
[okButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"continue_button.png"] forState: UIControlStateNormal];
[okButton addTarget:self action:#selector(okButtonClicked:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
okButton.adjustsImageWhenHighlighted = YES;
[menu addSubview: okButton];
datePickerView = [[UIDatePicker alloc] init];
CGRect pickerRect = datePickerView.bounds;
pickerRect.origin.y = 75;
datePickerView.frame = pickerRect;
//---Picker view for from date selection
if (btnClicked.tag==51)
{
[titleLabel setText:SELECT_FROM_DATE];
NSDate *now = [Global todayDate];
int daysToAdd = 1;
NSDate *newDate = [now dateByAddingTimeInterval:60*60*24*daysToAdd];
// NSLog(#"%#",strDtFromDate);
datePickerView.minimumDate = newDate;
if (holidayType==2)
{
NSDate *holidayFromDate=[dateFormat dateFromString:objectSelectedGroup.fromDate];
// newDate=[holidayFromDate dateByAddingTimeInterval:60*60*24*daysToAdd];
if ([[Global todayDate] compare:holidayFromDate] == NSOrderedAscending)
{
datePickerView.minimumDate = holidayFromDate;
}
else if([[Global todayDate] compare:holidayFromDate] == NSOrderedDescending)
{
datePickerView.minimumDate = newDate;
}
NSDate *holidayToDate=[dateFormat dateFromString:objectSelectedGroup.toDate];
NSLog(#"%#",objectSelectedGroup.fromDate);
NSLog(#"%#",objectSelectedGroup.toDate);
datePickerView.maximumDate = holidayToDate;
}
okButton.tag=34;
}
else if(btnClicked.tag==52)
{
[titleLabel setText:SELECT_TO_DATE];
datePickerView.minimumDate=stringDate;
NSDate *holidayToDate=[dateFormat dateFromString:objectSelectedGroup.toDate];
datePickerView.maximumDate=holidayToDate;
okButton.tag=35;
}
datePickerView.datePickerMode = UIDatePickerModeDate;
stringDate=[datePickerView date];
[datePickerView addTarget:self action:#selector(selectedDateChanged:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventValueChanged];
[menu addSubview:datePickerView];
//menu.actionSheetStyle=UIActionSheetStyleBlackTranslucent;
[menu showInView:self.view];
[menu setFrame:CGRectMake(0,self.view.frame.size.height - 290,320,290)];
And same code is working fine for iphone.
How to solve this?

Answer 1

Use PopOver Controller to display action sheet on ipad. To use actionsheet on Popover controller refer the following links,
UIDatePicker in UIActionSheet on iPad
UIActionSheet on iPad frame too small

Answer 2

UIActionaSheet is not fit for IPad and they most time behave unpredicted around frame
I would recommend a UIPopoverController with a custom UIViewController for doing this kinda user experience.

Answer 3

you can try replacing last two line with following lines,
[menu setFrame:CGRectMake(0,self.view.frame.size.height - 290,320,290)];
[menu showInView:[[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate] window]];
