I want to use a custom label field in my BlackBerry app.
Some detail about what you are trying to accomplish helps get better answers. Also an indication of what you have tried on your own is useful to see what level of help you're looking for.
The way to make your own custom version of a field is to subclass the existing class and override the methods to change the behavior in whatever way you want: LabelField

Currently, I am working on an iOS application, in which, our client asked for a feature and I am not quite sure how to implement it. We need to add an editable UITextView in the shape of specific map as attached in the image. While doing R&D I came to know that we can create a UITextView with the help of customized NSLayoutManager, NSTextStorage and NSTextContainer. But didn't get any detailed example for this type of complex issue.
Can anyone help me with this?
Thank You!
Required editable textview within the customized shape.
Need to display text within the customized shape.
If I were you, I'd create 4 UITextFields and handle the shouldChangeCharactersInRange delegate on them. Then I'd combine the text of all 4 fields to one and split it manually according to its size.
I am trying to incorporate a similar kind of view in an app. So, was wondering if its a tableview or something else?(see attached image) I am very new to learning swift and would greatly appreciate if someone could help me identify how this kind of structure can be made. Just the name of the element to be used would be enough. I will look up the details on Apple Docs.
It is a customized UIPickerView with two components. Just like the default Date Picker in iOS.
These questions should help you in styling the UIPickerView:

For that last question, please take a look at DShah' answer.
Addition to Nina's answer, below are some of the good custom Picker view controls which will be good to use in terms of performance and customizable.

so can you guys tell me what approach i should use to make views, becoz client strictly saying that each question will show on single screen.

Yes I have create this type of Application.You just use the One Custom Cell and make design of your view and return your array in Tableview cell. so it is better to use custom cell. Otherwise you use PageView Controller to display Question.Even I have also use this and it works fine.
I am working with a UITable View and I am trying to figure out the best way to handle the way I display the content as its dynamic.
For instance some of the things I search may have a title and a description but then other times only have a title.
In a n instance like this I would like to be able to control the positioning of the labels in my UITableCell, of which I have created a custom one.
For instance this is a graphical view of what I am trying to do.
Title:
No Title:
As you can see with the second option I have decided to move the UILabel to the left where the Title label would be.
So What would be the best way of doing this?
I am thinking maybe creating several different format types in a .xib and then just using if statments.. if its missing such and such then use cell a or b or c.
Or is there a better way to achieve this?
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
The different formats in .xib files will do the trick, just instance the proper cell type according to your needs, the other is delving into how you draw your cells, adding labels as you see fit when you get your data and drawing them appropriately.
I want a text field similar to the stock messaging app in the iPhone. Text field should have the same look and should be expandable to allow multi-line editing. Could you please suggest a method to get this in my app?
Thanks.
Use a UITextField.
To get the height of the text field use -sizeWithFont:constrainedToSize:lineBreakMode:.
To have the look of the Apple's text field put an image behind the text field that looks like Apple's text field. See -resizableImageWithCapInsets: to get the image to stretch properly.
Have a look at this :
UIBubbleTableView
EDIT :
The previous link was for the "bubble styled" tableview. If you want the view where you actually type the message, this is the one :
HPGrowingTextView
For other people who are searching for libraries but the ones mentioned here are with many bugs
Here is a library:
SlackTextViewController
A drop-in UIViewController subclass with a growing text input view and other useful messaging features. Meant to be a replacement for UITableViewController & UICollectionViewController.
