Change height of the UISegmentedControl

-

UISegmentedControl changing height is sometimes difficult to find. It can be easily done if you are using constraints.

In case if you don't use constraints , I tried the following approach which I though would work, but actually it did not.

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    CGRect rect=self.seg_cntrl.frame;
    rect.size.height=60.0;
    [self.mySegmentControl setFrame:rect];
}

Later on I found if you try to create a UISegmentedControl object using a code and then set the Frame it will consider the height that you set.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    
    UISegmentedControl *seg=[[UISegmentedControl alloc] initWithItems:@[@"1",@"2"]]
    ;
    [seg setFrame:CGRectMake(25.0, 70.0, 300.0, 60.0)];
    [self.view addSubview:seg];

}

The result can be seen in the following image.

hitTest on iOS to identify the view being hit

HitTest on iOS Use hitTest, to identify the view being tapped. The below method allows us to identify the view being selected. We can use it, to identify the view from which we would like to hide the touch events or identify the view we are interested into. Example: In the below case when we tap on Black View we can show an alert like "Black View tapped!" , if we tap on Red View , we can show an alert  "You are not allowed to tap on Red View" .  override func hitTest ( _ point: CGPoint , with event: UIEvent ?) -> UIView ? { } Here is a simple implementation of the method, to identify the view being hit. View hierarchy being used is listed below:- Blue(parent) - Red(child) - Green(child) - Yellow (child) - Orange (child) - Black (child) - White (child) So lets' start with override of hitTest method.      override func hitTest ( _ point: CGPoint , with event: UIEvent ?) -> UIView ? {         //1         if let viewAvailable = findPoin

CMTimeMakeWithSeconds explained

CMTime  is structure which has two main components,  timeScale  and  value. CMTIME = VALUE  / TIMESCALE where, TimeScale =  fraction of a second each unit in numerator occupies. CMTIME = Value / TimeScale 1)  public   func  CMTimeMake( _  value:  Int64 ,  _  timescale:  Int32 ) ->  CMTime CMTimeMake ( 6000 ,  10 ) Means, there are 6000 units , each unit occupies 1/10 of a second 2)  public   func  CMTimeMakeWithSeconds( _  seconds:  Float64 ,  _  preferredTimescale:  Int32 ) ->  CMTime CMTimeMakeWithSeconds(10.0,500) 10.0 = VALUE /500 Therefore VALUE = 5000 So, there are 5000 units, each occupy 1/500 of a second

Custom Editing Control for UITableViewCell , like iPhone Mail Appliation

Dear Friends, Today, while I was developing a application, I found that I am in need to a custom Editing control. Custom Editing Control are displayed on the left side of the screen. IOS sdk provides two of such kind which we use most of the time UITableViewCellEditingStyleDelete & UITableViewCellEditingStyleInsert  . I will be now discussing the third one, UITableViewCellEditingStyleNone. This can be used to design our own Editing control. How this is going to look like can be fond from below screen shot. Steps to achieve this can be found below: STEP 1: Create A subclass of UITabelViewCell First create a subclass of UITableViewCell, where when the cell object is initialised we will have to add a UIButton to its view. You will also need a offset variable, whose value will be 32.0 in all iPhones. -( id ) initWithCoder:( NSCoder *)aDecoder{          self =[ super initWithCoder :aDecoder];          if ( self ){         offset =32.0;
