Convert UIViews made programmatically to UIScrollViews
- by Scott
So I have a bunch of UIViews that I made programmatically and placed a bunch of content on (UIButtons, UILabels, UINavigationBars, etc.), and most of these views are going to need to actually be UIScrollViews instead.
Now keep in mind I made all these through code not the Interface Builder. What I first tried was to just change each declaration of a UIView to a UIScrollView instead, and that compiled and ran fine, however, they were not scrollable. It's REALLY weird.
Here is the code that I change into UIScrollViews, although it doesn't scroll:
- (void)loadView {
//allocate the view
self.view = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]];
//self.view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame]];
//set the view's background color
self.view.backgroundColor = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@"MainBG.jpg"]];
[self.view addSubview:[SiteOneController myNavBar1:@"Sites"]];
NSMutableArray *sites = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
NSString *one = @"Constution Center";
NSString *two = @"Franklin Court";
NSString *three = @"Presidents House";
[sites addObject: one];
[one release];
[sites addObject: two];
[two release];
[sites addObject: three];
[three release];
NSString *element;
int j = 0;
for (element in sites)
{
UIButton *button = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
UIFont *myBoldFont = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:20.0];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, b + (j*45), c, d)];
[label setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
label.text = element;
label.font = myBoldFont;
UIImage *img = [UIImage imageNamed:@"ButtonBase.png"];
[button setImage:img forState:UIControlStateNormal];
//setframe (where on screen)
//separation is 15px past the width (45-30)
button.frame = CGRectMake(a, b + (j*45), c, d);
// [button setTitle:element forState:UIControlStateNormal];
button.backgroundColor = [SiteOneController myColor1];
[button addTarget:self action:@selector(showCCView:)
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[button setTag:j];
[self.view addSubview: button];
[self.view addSubview:label];
j++;
}
}
What am I doing wrong?
