How do I use checkboxes in iPad application development?
I want to use this for users to answer questions like:
1.Is the Up Photocell operational?
Yes
No
Then output the results to another page.
I've tried some google searches, with nothing.
Anyone?
The UIKit user interface in iOS doesn't use checkboxes, it uses the UISwitch control.
There is no checkbox control.
There is no standard checkbox provided by Apple but there are some opensource solutions. Checkout: http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/radiobutton
There are other solutions out there too but that is one.
You may want to make your own if UISwitch isn't what you want. Just subclass a UIImageView and put a UITapGestureRecognizer on it. Every time it is tapped it switches the image and flips a BOOL variable.

I have implemented a custom UIMenuController with two aditional options besides the ones that are set by default in iOS (cut, copy, look up, share). I want to keep these standard options, but I want them to appear after my two custom items, does anyone know how to achieve this in an efficient way? Thanks in advance.
The UIMenuController documentation says:
Custom items appear in the menu after any system menu items.
So there is probably no approved way around that. It appears to be baked in functionality.
I am developing a survey app using Xamarin and Mvvmcross. Can some one help with suggesting a way to build a View to display questionnaire. These questionnaire will be supplying from my View Model as a List of question with Question Text, Answer options. Based on a flag I need to prompt the questionnaire with input type as drop down or Text boxes. Number of questions can be vary.
In Android I achieved it using MvxGridView and Layout templates. But not sure how to do it in iOS.
You could look up UITableView or UICollectionView and UITextFields and UIPickerView
Wellcome to Xamarin, about your question you can just take look the code I wrote for others, it's a tableview include custom cell to display images, you can just modify the MyTableCell.cs class to display anything you want.
Custom cell tableview(Xamarin.iOS)
If you still need some help, just leave it here, I will check latter.
Hope it can help you.
I've seen this used in some apps and I can't seem to figure out how it's done - there seems to be nothing to set. When I set the url to share, it doesn't pop up automatically either, and I can't find any reference to it anywhere on the Internet which makes me feel like an idiot. Any possibilities? It's not urgent anyway I'm just curious. Thanks.

Edit: I can't believe I need 10 reputation to show you my problem.
There's no built-in way to do this. However, there's a third-party component named JDSActivityVC which enables you to achieve this effect.
It's just a subclass of UIActivityViewController that adds a custom UIView with an UILabel.
I am very first time developing the Spinner in iOS.
I searched a lot for default Spinner view in iOS, but failed.
What I get is, two ways to design spinner like view in iOS.
UIPickerview
Custom TableView which will be displayed on Click of DownArrow Button
I found the tutorial for UIPickerview.
But There are some OS orientation for this,
Means I want the UIPickerview in different Look & feel with selection style, also Scrolling of picker is not as I want.
So I was thinking to go for second options.
But Is there any other superior way to achieve this task,
As I think the second option is GOOD, but NOT BEST.
What I want is like the image below, its from Android,
I want to go for the same in iOS.
Thanks for help..
I think what you are looking is here
But I use RMPickerViewController which is more powerfull.
I've seen some cool looking "windows" / "alerts" /whatever they are called. I wish I knew. Here's some examples of them:
These shouldn't be Apple exclusive, since I've seen 3rd party apps use them! I'd like to know what are these windows?
It Custom UIActivityIndicator that you can found in this link
https://github.com/jdg/MBProgressHUD
MBProgressHUD is an iOS drop-in class that displays a translucent HUD with an indicator and/or labels while work is being done in a background thread. The HUD is meant as a replacement for the undocumented, private UIKit UIProgressHUD with some additional features.......
For mor information go to above Link
Thanks :)
These is not apple specific controls. You can create them.
The pop up shown in first image is very easy to make. You'll have to use 3 controls to make it.
Background UIImageView with the image.
UIActivityIndicatory
UILabel with whatever message you want to display.
You just have to load this UIImageView and Animate the UIActivityIndicatory to get this pop up. I've used these pop up in a lot of apps Apple don't object this.
Your first view is a UIProgressHUD. Original Apple HUD is in a private API and it is not recommended to use it.
http://cocoadev.com/wiki/UIProgressHUD
However, numerous implementations have appeared that emulate the original HUD. For one, have a look here:
https://github.com/y0n3l/LGViewHUD
though I am sure Google will give you a dozen similar implementations.
