Is there any other UI object for selecting between variables that’s not picker view?
I’m very new to iOS development, and I want to create an app where users fill out a form.
To choose between a small set of variables, e.g. “Male” or “Female”, and “University”, “High School”, or “Child”, I would prefer a drop down list, but the only thing close that I can find is a picker view. The problem is that a picker view is big, and it seems unnecessary when there are only 2 or 3 variables.
The usual way of handling this in iOS is to push a
UITableViewControlleronto theUINavigationControllerstack, with one row per option. Use a delegate method to pass back the selected option.If you want to show an already selected option, set the
cell.accessoryType = UITableViewCellAccessoryCheckmark
