UIViewController view is overlapped with the Navigation and Status bar

Background:

Since iOS7 release status bar is part of your  the view. It is the common problem faced in application that navigation and status bar overlapped with your view content when you use nib or xib files.


                XIB                                          Actual result

I have seen in some application that to fix this problem view content is start from 64 pixel down. But it can raise other problem in the applications. So question is:

How To Fix This ?

Solution 1:

In View did load you can add the following line:

[self setEdgesForExtendedLayout:UIRectEdgeNone];

Example:

- (void)viewDidLoad {
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    [self setEdgesForExtendedLayout:UIRectEdgeNone];
}

edgesForExtendedLayout
This property tells which sides of your view can be extended to cover the whole screen. If you push a UIViewController into a UINavigationController, when the view of that view controller is laid out, it will start where the navigation bar ends, but this property will set which sides of the view (top, left, bottom, right) can be extended to fill the whole screen.
DefaultValue: UIRectEdgeAll (That is the reason your view is overlapping to Navigation bar and status bar. Because it try to cover whole screen).
UIRectEdgeNone: By this property we are specifying do not extend to any side. So it is fit.
Reference : Stackoverflow

Solution 2:

Set the translucent property of navigation bar of UINavigationController to No. By default it is "yes".

UINavigationController* navController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:viewController];
navController.navigationBar.translucent = NO;

Asynchronous Request with NSOperationQueue

Today post is about how to run a asynchronous task in NSOperationQueue.  Generally we do not run a Asynchronous task in NSOperationQueue. It is also not recommended for any programmer to do that. This post is only for learning purpose what will happen if we schedule a asynchronous task in a queue and how can we complete that task:). So let us move to the learning: NSOperationQueue: In iOS NSOperationQueue is a class, which provide a way to perform operation concurrently. We also have others way to perform concurrent operation: 1) GCD 2) NSThread 3) pThread NSOperationQueue is a wrapper on GCD, which provides a very convenient way to execute operation concurrently. To create a Queue for Operation you have to simply allocate a object of the class: NSOperationQueue * opertionQueue = [[ NSOperationQueue alloc ] init ]; For this post let suppose you are making a queue to handle all Http request in your application. So i want to create a queue in Handl...

Shake Effect in iOS

Animation Animation always capture the user attention. We can use animation to update things on the screen.  For developer also animations fascinated things to learn and implement. Today we will try shake effect with Various  API. CABasicAnimation: Here we animate view's frame y coordinate from one position to another position. It is simple example of changing the position with respect to time. CABasic Animation is deal with the single keyframe.                                        y(t) = y 0 + t*d(y) You can use CABasic Animation if you have to play with single value. You need to move object from  one position to another without any intermediate steps. CABasicAnimation * shakeAnimation = [CABasicAnimation animationWithKeyPath: @ "position" ]; shakeAnimation . duration = 0.05 ; shakeAnimation . autoreverses = YES; shakeAnimation . repe...

NSThread with Asynchronous Request

NSThread: It is class used in Cocoa framework to create a thread.You have to specify a target and selector to create a new thread in objective c. So the selector or method is main entry point of your thread.  Detail: What happen once the thread execute all the code in the method (Thread main routine)? Thread is terminated after execute all the code in the entry(its main routine) routine. So how we can run an asynchronous request on NSThread ? What is Async request? It is non blocking request which permit the application to do other task side by side as request is in continue. So it enhance parallelism in the application. Now question is how we can prepare a asynchronous request in iOS: - ( void ) startAsyncRequestWithUrl:( NSString *)urlString{     assert (urlString != nil && urlString. length > 0 );     NSURL * url = [[ NSURL alloc ] initWithString :urlString];     NSURLRequest * urlRequest = [[ NSURLReq...
