I have seen many examples of the raised center button on a UITabBar, most being just a UIButton placed over the top but all of these need coding on every view, Is there a way of creating this without having to program every view so it will appear on every screen, perhaps something in the app delegate?
I want to achieve a UITabBar with a raised circle in the center.
Subclass UITabBarController. I've found an example here: Raised Center Tab Bar Button.

In my application currently I have implemented custom view in place of UINavigationBar. But there are 14-15 screens. So I repeatedly created that top view fro each screen.
So while surfing for the solution to avoid this repetition. I came across the concept of UIAppearance. But I don't know how to implement it. I have also gone through some basic concept of it but still I am very confuse.
My top view is bit different for each screen. Like in 4-5 screens there is Two buttons(back button on left and call button right) with one label in center.
Then in other 4-5 screens there is two buttons(cancel button on left and call button on right) with one label in center.
Then in other 2-3 screens there are two buttons(side menu button on left and call button on right) with one label and icon in center.
Can anyone tell me how to achieve it using UIAppearance?
Thanks in advance!
You can't set buttons via UIAppearance. If you are setting titleTextAttributes on each page (for say, font, size and color), you can do that via the UINavigationBar appearance like this:
[[UINavigationBar appearance] setTitleTextAttributes:attributes];
The attributes pointer is a NSDictionary containing your textAttributes (NSFontAttributeName, NSForegroundColorAttributeName etc.)
I need to achieve the IOS7 app launch transition, in which the the detail view appears with fade effect according to the rectangle frame of the button that fired this view, as described in the image below:
So I have a main ViewController with six buttons, I want to make transition to the details viewControllers with fade and zoom effect, and starting the animation depending of the button frame.
I found RZTransitions, amazing collection of custom transitions, it does exactly what I want but for uicollectionView, I tried but can't get working to do the same for a viewController.
Thanks.
I am working on app where I have some list of content shown with some buttons . I need a dock kind of animation when I touches the button , then clicking on the docked button event should be fired. when I touches another button this one should be docked . I have seen the following like
http://praastitutki2012.wordpress.com/2009/11/23/mac-osx-dock-like-animation-for-iphone/
but , here I need to create a separate view for handling this . But I need this only for some of the buttons only , not for the entire view.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks in advance.
I didn't check in details the code you linked, but actually a UIButton is a UIView. You may consider subclassing UIButton and implement those methods. This way, animating the whole view means animating the button.
I have a UITabBarController displaying a number of settings-screens in my app. I want them to be shown on just a part of the screen for layout reasons. In fullscreen, the lists become unreadable (too wide), there are just a few controls per page making the page feel very empty, and the tabbar buttons are far away from the content (Fitts law).
Using presentModalViewController with the UIModalPresentationFormSheet style gives me the size I want. I do this on top of an empty background, since in my case it doesn't make sense to display anything behind it. The "real" working area is displayed with another presentModalViewController in fullscreen mode on top of it all.
This works but feels like a hack. One problem is, I can't make the background behind the settings dialog move in the transition to fullscreen with the UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal style.
TL;DR
Can I embed a UITabBarController non-fullscreen in another "background"-view? I can't find any information of how I would do this.

Why don't you try it out?
Create a container view of the size you want the tab bar controller to have.
Create the tab bar controller.
[containerView addSubview:tabBarController.view];
I looked at Apple's UIModalTransitionStyle, but didn't see what I was looking for. I want to do the same thing that the Facebook iPhone App does; when you touch on a button on the Facebook's homescreen, the new UIView appears (and then disappears when you are done) from the middle of the screen. I would like to implement similar transitions in my iPhone app, and I was wondering if there was a quick way to do it (already precoded), and if not, how would I code it so I can do the same thing?
Edit: To clarify, the transition should have the UIView grow out of the middle of the screen, and then it fills up the entire view. When the user dismisses the view, the view shrinks into the middle of the screen, getting smaller until it has disappeared. Just like in the Facebook app.
Thank you!
myView.center = parentView.center
where myView is your new UIView that is appearing and parentView is the view that holds the button or else you could reference the application's window.
