Please do not post the same thing multiple times. The board software automatically flags certain posts as needing moderator attention. This happens the most often for new users. I'm pretty sure this is made clear at the time you attempt to post. Posting the same thing over and over again just makes that many more posts the moderators have to weed through later. This makes us sad. Don't make us sad. If your post/thread doesn't appear, just wait a while. Don't post it again. If it hasn't shown up by the next day, then you can try again. I normally go through posts in the mornings, and try to check a few times throughout the day, but I'm not here 24/7. There will typically be a significant delay before posts are approved. Just be patient.

Getting Image on UIImageView

HakimoHakimo Posts: 12Registered Users
Hi, I'm currently making an app where the user takes a photo or select it from an album, then an overlay is placed over the image. The user can then scale, rotate and save the image.

For now, I have 2 xib files. The first one has thumbnails for overlay pictures to choose from. Clicking on on of them goes to another xib file where I have 2 UIImageViews. One for the overlay and one for the camera. Previously I just used interface builder to set an image at the attributes. But if have 20 overlays, it means I have to use 20 xibs. So I thought the best way is to add pictures through code so I can use this 2nd xib as a template for the overlays. Here's when I'm stuck. When I click on a thumbnail in the 1st xib file, how do tell the 2nd xib file to store an overlay in the UIImageView?

For the camera, I'm using
imageView.image = [info objectForKey:@\"UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage\"];
and it works fine. I can even save it to the album. I thought I could use the code below for the overlays but that didn't work.
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed: @\"char1.png\"];


Hope someone can help. Thanks very much.
