POPickerView loaded via button click too small

Body
copied!<p>I'm building an iPad app and I wish to popup a uipickerview when the user presses a button (a regular button, not a ToolBarItem). I realize that typically you do popover type things from a toolbar but in this instance I need it to happen on a standard button click. I've done quite a bit of search and this is the code I was able to come up with (this is the code for the Button click):</p> <pre><code>- (IBAction)showTagPicker:(id)sender { UIActionSheet *actionSheet = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:@"Select a Category" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil destructiveButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil, nil]; [actionSheet setActionSheetStyle:UIActionSheetStyleBlackTranslucent]; CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0, 40, 320, 450); PCCategory *categories = [[PCCategory alloc] init]; UIPickerView *picker = [[UIPickerView alloc] initWithFrame:frame]; picker.delegate = categories; picker.dataSource = categories; UIToolbar *pickerToolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 464)]; pickerToolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackOpaque; [pickerToolbar sizeToFit]; NSMutableArray *barItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; UIBarButtonItem *flexSpace = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:self action:nil]; [barItems addObject:flexSpace]; UIBarButtonItem *doneButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:@selector(tagSelected)]; [barItems addObject:doneButton]; [pickerToolbar setItems:barItems animated:YES]; [actionSheet addSubview:pickerToolbar]; [actionSheet addSubview:picker]; [actionSheet showInView:self.view]; [actionSheet setBounds:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 464)]; } </code></pre> <p>This does seem to be creating the picker control in a popover, however the control is very small (its only displaying about 1 line) and none of the tool bar items I'm showing are rendering. </p> <p><a href="http://i.imgur.com/RCLKC.png" rel="nofollow">see picture</a></p> <p>How can I control the size? I've tried tweaking the values of the two CGRect objects that are being created but that doesn't seem to make much of a difference.</p>
