Question

So, I’m almost done with the functionality part for the app I’m developing and now the graphic designer gives me a png image I have to match the xib to. The image has a ‘search agent’ section with select country,region,language,type of property and two textfield. Originally in my xib I had separate buttons for each and two textfileds, and the button action would give me pickers to select country, region etc. So the png requires me to put all these into a tableview. Is creating tableview with buttons and textfields better or having them separately on the view itself? I know this is not a programmatic doubt in specific but I really need to know which is better. This is my first ever app and I’m really clueless.Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

It really depends on what you want, often people like to use tableviews simply because they group the elements nicely, this is very common in login screens for instance.

But that does not mean one is better than the other is really just a design choice. That being said having buttons inside tableviews can create issues at times, since the response chain is in the tableview and in the button.

For your case I would recommend not to use a uitableview.
