I have a very tricky problem and after long searching (google, stackoverflow, ...) i didn't get the solution that works for me.
Let me introduce you in my current choosen architecture:
I have a a AppDelegate, which has a UIView that contains a UINavigationController and the application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: contains:
UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 400)];
UIViewController *myController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
myController.view = myView;
FSCScrumRootView * myRootView = [[FSCScrumRootView alloc] initWithNibName:@"FSCScrumRootView" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]];
[myController.view addSubview:myRootView.navigation.view];
[self.window addSubview:myController.view];
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
return YES;
}
In my FSCScrumRootView (inherits from UIViewController) i init the view like this:
- (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
{
self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
if (self) {
// Custom initialization
self.navigation = [[[UINavigationController alloc] init] autorelease];
self.scrumProjectsList = [[[FSCScrumProjectListView alloc] init] initWithNibName:@"FSCScrumProjectListView" bundle:nil];
[navigation pushViewController:scrumProjectsList animated:YES];
[navigation view];
}
return self;
}
In my FSCScrumProjectListView (it is inherited from UITableViewController) i have implemented the viewDidLoad as following:
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
//Set the title
self.navigationItem.title = @"Scrum Projects";
UIBarButtonItem *myRefreshButton = [[[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Refresh" style:UIBarButtonSystemItemRefresh target:self action:@selector(refreshList)] autorelease];
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = myRefreshButton;
UIBarButtonItem *myLogoutButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Logout" style:UIBarButtonSystemItemCancel target:self action:@selector(logout)];
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = myLogoutButton;
//Initialize the toolbar
toolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] init];
toolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleDefault;
//Set the toolbar to fit the width of the app.
[toolbar sizeToFit];
//Caclulate the height of the toolbar
CGFloat toolbarHeight = [toolbar frame].size.height;
//Get the bounds of the parent view
CGRect rootViewBounds = self.parentViewController.view.bounds;
//Get the height of the parent view.
CGFloat rootViewHeight = CGRectGetHeight(rootViewBounds);
//Get the width of the parent view,
CGFloat rootViewWidth = CGRectGetWidth(rootViewBounds);
//Create a rectangle for the toolbar
CGRect rectArea = CGRectMake(0, rootViewHeight - toolbarHeight, rootViewWidth, toolbarHeight);
//Reposition and resize the receiver
[toolbar setFrame:rectArea];
//Create a button
UIBarButtonItem *infoButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:@"Info" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self action:@selector(info_clicked:)];
[toolbar setItems:[NSArray arrayWithObjects:infoButton,nil]];
//Add the toolbar as a subview to the navigation controller.
[self.navigationController.view addSubview:toolbar];
//Reload the table view
[self.tableView reloadData];
}
This results finally in the following screen (as i'd like to have it): View iOS Mockup of current result
The Problem: My Problem now is, that i can click ONLY on the Refresh Button. The other two buttons (Info and Logout) cannot be clicked. And i don't understand why? What I am doing wrong here?
Your help is kindly appreceated!
People, i have found the reason for my problem and i have to say, it was a very very silly one.
The first line of this project was responsible for all the troubels:
UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 400)];
Since the View i created there is only sized 200x400, it is to small to recognize any events that appear in the outside of this view (although everything is visible).
If i change the size of this view, all works as expected:
UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 500)];
But the more dynamic solution would probably be:
CGRect cgRect =[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds];
CGSize cgSize = cgRect.size;
UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, cgSize.width, cgSize.height)];
Maybe there is an even better solution for getting the dynamic screen size?
