Question

can I assign same action to multiple buttons in the Interface Builder once they are all selected by one connection?

Answer 1

This problem is discussed in numerous threads but it isn’t always just laid out simply. The easiest route is to create a function such as the one below. It takes the sender, in this case a UIButton, and gets the tag. You can then run whatever code you want based on that.

- (IBAction) buttonClick: (id) sender {

    UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
    int row = button.tag;
    NSLog(@"Button clicked: %i", row);
    if (row == 1 ) {
    // do something
    }
}

In Interface Builder, attach the button to the function, and then use the Attributes Inspector to set the Tag value for each button, giving each one a different integer value.
