    <h3>PROBLEM</h3> <p>I have created a custom <code>UISegmentedControl</code> component for an iOS application, placed on the navigation bar, with two segments. As one would expect, the component has a slightly shorter height when the phone is rotated to landscape orientation.</p> <p>However, the problem is that after rotating to landscape, the segmented control retains its short height even after rotating back to portrait. I appreciate your help.</p> <p>Here's the (simplified) code, which is inside the <code>initWithCoder:</code> method:</p> <pre><code>UIImage *bg = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"button-bg"] resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(7, 7, 7, 7)]; UIImage *bgH = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"button-bg-h"] resizableImageWithCapInsets:UIEdgeInsetsMake(7, 7, 7, 7)]; [self setBackgroundImage:bg forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault]; [self setBackgroundImage:bg forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsLandscapePhone]; [self setBackgroundImage:bgH forState:UIControlStateSelected barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault]; [self setBackgroundImage:bgH forState:UIControlStateSelected barMetrics:UIBarMetricsLandscapePhone]; </code></pre> <p>============================</p> <h3>TEMPORARY WORKAROUND</h3> <p>Here's my temporary workaround for it, until I find a better solution:</p> <p>In the view controller, I have an outlet called <code>segmentControl</code>, linked to the <code>UISegmentedControl</code> in question. I also created a property as follows:</p> <pre><code>@property CGRect segmentedControlPortraitOrientationFrame; </code></pre> <p>Inside the <code>viewDidLoad</code> method:</p> <pre><code>self.segmentedControlPortraitOrientationFrame = self.segmentControl.frame; </code></pre> <p>Then override <code>didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:</code> with the following implementation:</p> <pre><code>-(void)didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)interfaceOrientation { [super didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:interfaceOrientation]; if(UIInterfaceOrientationIsPortrait(self.interfaceOrientation)) self.segmentControl.frame = self.segmentedControlPortraitOrientationFrame; } </code></pre> <p>The workaround assumes that apps always load in portrait orientation first, which I think is true, as long as the app supports portrait. Correct me if I'm wrong.</p>

    1. COare you using any constraints/springs&struts/autoResizingMasks? Also, on rotation back to portrait, are the rotation methods being called?

    2. CONot using AutoLayout, and also no resize masks. `UISegmentedControl` doesn't allow an auto resize mask on its height anyway, at least not through the IB it seems... Which rotation methods are you referring to? How can I check?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
