Question

I have two views, one view takes the whole screen, the second view covers only a little portion. What I want is for that second view to be on the first view (which I already have done), but the problem is, when I set values (in this case UILabel’s) the label on the screen doesn’t display that new value. I know for a fact the method gets called, but for some reason it won’t change the label’s value.

Edit: Here’s the code:

-(void)loadHighScores
{   
[no1 setText:@"test"];
 NSLog(@"it works");
}

And here’s how I call it:

    highscore = [[HighScore alloc] init];
    [highscore loadHighScores];

Answer 1

Have you tried:

[myView setNeedsDisplay];

Quote from Apple docs:

By default, geometry changes to a view
automatically redisplays the view
without needing to invoke the
drawRect: method. Therefore, you need
to request that a view redraw only
when the data or state used for
drawing a view changes. In this case,
send the view the setNeedsDisplay
message. Any UIView objects marked as
needing display are automatically
redisplayed when the application
returns to the run loop.
