I have some strange behavior using a UIPageControl: First it appears showing only one bullet, then when I move the scroll view all the bullets appear correctly. Is there something I'm missing before I add it as a subview? Here is my code imageScrollView.h : @interface ImageScrollView : UIView <UIScrollViewDelegate> { NSMutableDictionary *photos; BOOL *pageControlIsChangingPage; UIPageControl *pageControl; } @property (nonatomic, copy) NSMutableDictionary *photos; @property (nonatomic, copy) UIPageControl *pageControl; @end Here is the code for imageScrollView.m: #import "ImageScrollView.h" @implementation ImageScrollView @synthesize photos, pageControl; - (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame { if ((self = [super initWithFrame:frame])) { // Initialization code NSLog(@"%@",pageControl); } return self; } - (void) drawRect:(CGRect)rect { [self removeAllSubviews]; UIScrollView *scroller = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,self.frame.size.width,self.frame.size.height)]; [scroller setDelegate:self]; [scroller setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor]]; [scroller setShowsHorizontalScrollIndicator:NO]; [scroller setPagingEnabled:YES]; NSUInteger nimages = 0; CGFloat cx= 0; for (NSDictionary *myDictionaryObject in photos) { if (![myDictionaryObject isKindOfClass:[NSNull class]]) { NSString *photo =[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://www.techbase.com.mx/blog/%@", [myDictionaryObject objectForKey:@"filepath"]]; NSDictionary *data = [myDictionaryObject objectForKey:@"data"]; UIView *imageContainer = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height - 30)]; TTImageView *imageView = [[TTImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height - 30)]; imageView.urlPath=photo; [imageContainer addSubview:imageView]; UILabel *caption = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,imageView.frame.size.height,imageView.frame.size.width,10)]; [caption setText:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",[data objectForKey:@"description"]]]; [caption setBackgroundColor:[UIColor grayColor]]; [caption setTextColor:[UIColor whiteColor]]; [caption setLineBreakMode:UILineBreakModeWordWrap]; [caption setNumberOfLines:0]; [caption sizeToFit]; [caption setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:@"Georgia" size:10.0]]; [imageContainer addSubview:caption]; CGRect rect = imageContainer.frame; rect.size.height = imageContainer.size.height; rect.size.width = imageContainer.size.width; rect.origin.x = ((scroller.frame.size.width - scroller.size.width) / 2) + cx; rect.origin.y = ((scroller.frame.size.height - scroller.size.height) / 2); imageContainer.frame=rect; [scroller addSubview:imageContainer]; [imageView release]; [imageContainer release]; [caption release]; nimages++; cx +=scroller.frame.size.width; } } [scroller setContentSize:CGSizeMake(nimages * self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)]; [self addSubview:scroller]; pageControl = [[UIPageControl alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(self.frame.size.width/2, self.frame.size.height -20, (self.frame.size.width/nimages)/2, 20)]; pageControl.numberOfPages=nimages; [self addSubview:pageControl]; [scroller release]; } -(void)dealloc { [pageControl release]; [super dealloc]; } -(void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)_scrollView{ if(pageControlIsChangingPage){ return; } CGFloat pageWidth = _scrollView.frame.size.width; int page = floor((_scrollView.contentOffset.x - pageWidth /2) / pageWidth) + 1; pageControl.currentPage = page; } -(void)scrollViewDidEndDecelerating:(UIScrollView *)_scrollView{ pageControlIsChangingPage = NO; } @end
