Question

I’ve placed some images in my interface with Interface Builder and set them to be hidden on startup… Now I want to change the hidden attribute to FALSE, when I press a button, but I haven’t tried accessing interface built images in my code before (not even sure if it is possible)…

Any help?

Answer 1

Just create some IBOutlets in your code, connect them in Interface Builder and then use them in your code.

e.g.

//in your header:

IBOutlet UIImageView *image;

// in your code (e.g. in the IBAction for the button):
- (IBAction)showImageNowFoo:(id)sender {
    [image setHidden:NO];
}

btw: FALSE is false. NO is Objective-C (although FALSE works..)
