Answer 1

It is not possible to draw an arc in view Did Load.

What you need to do is:-

1.)Add a file of type UIView(lets say ArcView.h and ArcView.m)in your project

2.)In ArcView.m file implement - (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect method

3.)In this method you need to write your logic of drawing an arc or whatever you want to draw)

4.)Now the ViewController in which you have to show your arc lets say(ArcViewController is the file in which you want to show your arc)

5.)In ArcViewController.m file you need to do following steps:-

a.)#import "ArcView.h"

b.)Whenever you want to show your arc view do:-

ArcView *vw = [[ArcView alloc] initWithFrame:*your required frame where you want to show arc*];
vw.backgroundColor=[UIColor redColor];
[self.view addSubview:vw];
[vw release];

After that you will see your arc coming on your screen.
