copied!<p><strong>My Case:</strong></p> <p>I have original Page Control app from Apple. I would like to modify the launch of the app on right side on page control at the bottom of UIScrollView? By default, when launch - it is on the first page which is on the left. Say for example, i have 7 pages. So, I want the first page appear on the last page which is on the 7th page and second page page on the 6th page and so on. In short, the reverse of the default.</p> <p>I know there have to be one code that do this trick. I'm not sure what it is. Please help. Thanks!</p> <p><strong>Below is description of Page Control app from Apple:</strong></p> <p>PageControl</p> <p>This application demonstrates use of UIScrollView's paging functionality to use horizontal scrolling as a mechanism for navigating between different pages of content. Each page is managed by its own view controller which is loaded only when it is needed. A UIPageControl is displayed at the bottom of the window as an alternative interface for moving between pages</p> <p><strong>The Code in AppDelegate.m</strong></p> <pre><code>#import "AppDelegate.h" #import "MyViewController.h" static NSUInteger kNumberOfPages = 7; @interface AppDelegate (PrivateMethods) - (void)loadScrollViewWithPage:(int)page; - (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender; @end @implementation AppDelegate @synthesize window, scrollView, pageControl, viewControllers; - (void)dealloc { [viewControllers release]; [scrollView release]; [pageControl release]; [window release]; [super dealloc]; } - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(UIApplication *)application { // view controllers are created lazily // in the meantime, load the array with placeholders which will be replaced on demand NSMutableArray *controllers = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init]; for (unsigned i = 0; i < kNumberOfPages; i++) { [controllers addObject:[NSNull null]]; } self.viewControllers = controllers; [controllers release]; // a page is the width of the scroll view scrollView.pagingEnabled = YES; scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(scrollView.frame.size.width * kNumberOfPages, scrollView.frame.size.height); scrollView.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = NO; scrollView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = NO; scrollView.scrollsToTop = NO; scrollView.delegate = self; pageControl.numberOfPages = kNumberOfPages; pageControl.currentPage = 0; // pages are created on demand // load the visible page // load the page on either side to avoid flashes when the user starts scrolling [self loadScrollViewWithPage:0]; [self loadScrollViewWithPage:1]; } - (void)loadScrollViewWithPage:(int)page { if (page < 0) return; if (page >= kNumberOfPages) return; // replace the placeholder if necessary MyViewController *controller = [viewControllers objectAtIndex:page]; if ((NSNull *)controller == [NSNull null]) { controller = [[MyViewController alloc] initWithPageNumber:page]; [viewControllers replaceObjectAtIndex:page withObject:controller]; [controller release]; } // add the controller's view to the scroll view if (nil == controller.view.superview) { CGRect frame = scrollView.frame; frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * page; frame.origin.y = 0; controller.view.frame = frame; [scrollView addSubview:controller.view]; } } - (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender { // We don't want a "feedback loop" between the UIPageControl and the scroll delegate in // which a scroll event generated from the user hitting the page control triggers updates from // the delegate method.
