Question

I have a UITextField, that I had customized in my firstViewController.
Now I wan’t it to have the same behavior on the other ViewControllers.
Is there anyway to import all the properties on a IBOutlet?

Answer 1

simple create your own Customclass and set the property in the constructor.

@interface CustomTextField : UITextField

@end


@implementation CustomTextField

- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
    self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
    if (self) {
      //Customize here
      self.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocorrectionTypeDefault;
      self.text = @"Blub";
      ....
    }
    return self;
}
@end

if your create a new Textfield, create the object with your custom class:

CustomTextField *field = [[CustomTextField alloc] initWithFrame: ...];
