Somes issues (tableview, pickerview, navigationcontroller)

[gilthonweapps]

Hi,

I am using your library on one of my app and I have some issues when I seet it in iOS6.

1. NavigationController:

• iOS 6
  
• i0S 7
  

As you can see, with iOS 7, the background of the navigation controller is black (in fact, all the views of my app have a black background so it looks fine with that navigation controller). But with iOS 6, I cannot have it in another color than what you see in the screenshot.

2. TableView

• iOS 6
  
• iOS 7
  

Here, I am using a simple UITableView grouped. With iOS 6, there is an extra white space for the header of each section, even if I don't specify a custom view or title for that section. If I specify one, that extra white space will be added under the title. How to remove that extra space?

3. PickerView

• iOS 6
  
• iOS 7
  

With iOS 6, how to specify the color of the text in the picker? It would be nice as well to change the color of the separator lines.

Thanks for your help!

I have to add that the pickerView is only filled with ??? instead of the numbers.

Thank you for report. Could you explain more about last comment? do you mean '?' for blank picker view content?

Hi. I use the pickerView to select a time. So, with iOS 7, each part of the pickerView contains numbers from 0 to 9. But with iOS 6, each number is replaced by a '?'.

Here is the code I am using (I removed some parts of the function that are not useful to describe the problem):

• (UIView )pickerView:(UIPickerView *)pickerView viewForRow:(NSInteger)row forComponent:(NSInteger)component reusingView:(UIView *)view
  {
  UILabel tView = (UILabel*)view;
  if (!tView) {
  tView = [[UILabel alloc] init];
  tView.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
  tView.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%d", row];
  }

  return tView;
  }

Oh, unfortunately, viewForRow: is not implemented in UI7PickerView yet, sorry.

[gilthonweapps]

That's sad. I am using it to be able to change the color of the text of each component of the pickerView. Is there another way to do it?
Do you have any comments on my other issues?
Tell me if you need more information.

[youknowone]

No way to do it yet. I should add viewForRow: support for that.
I think I should try something first. I will ask things while doing this. Thanks!

[gilthonweapps]

Ok great. Feel free to ask ;-)

1. viewForRow: is supported now - but I am not sure this implementation is similar to UIPickerView
2. about textColor or selectionIndicatorColor, I found this is also not customizable in UIPickerView. So I implemented it in UI7PickerLIkeView but didnt reveal them to UI7PickerView. I wonder how did you do that in iOS7.

[youknowone]

About grouped table view, did you remove color of table view in iOS7 or did you remove spaces between section by section? And how did you do that?

[gilthonweapps]

I have updated my app with the latest version of your code and the pickerView is now empty.
In order to change the color of the text, just have a look at my sample code. As you provide the viewForRow method with a custom view (in my case, a UILabel), you specify the color with the UILabel textColor method.
Concerning selectionIndicatorColor, it is black by default in iOS7, that's why we don't see it in my example as the background of my view is black.

Concerning the grouped table view, here is how I configure it:

viewForRow: working example:

NOTE: Text is not visible in iOS7
