Layout problems in IPad/IPhone Development

I initially learned how to develop IOS (IPad/IPhone). I spent a lot of time on the Interface layout in the past two days.

There are two methods for IOS interface:

1. Create an Interface using Interface Builder and associate it with the corresponding controller.

2. manually add UI components and layout through code

Advantages and disadvantages:

Method 1: The interface can be created quickly, easily, and easily maintained. The disadvantage is that it is not dynamic enough. It is said that the performance will be worse (because XIB files need to be read ).

The advantage of method 2 is that it is flexible and controllable. The disadvantage lies in the advantages of method 1.

My personal experience on these two methods:

* Use method 1 to divide components. Each function has its own independent View & Controller.

* Use method 1 for overall layout

* Use method 2 on local dynamics

Other considerations:

* Performance: multiple views and controllers may consume resources.

* How to support rotation: Adjust the layout manually after rotation

Experience Sharing:

* General Layout and control: Navigation, Tab, and Split

* Other useful views: UITableView and PageControl

* A Good Example UICatalog (in the ios sdk documentation): contains a variety of UI spaces and common la s

* The toolbar does not support Landscape. It should be a bug.

At present, we are still exploring complicated interface layout and control, and will share more experiences in ios interface development.
