iPad中的分屏

Question

I working on a iPAD only app which requires me to split the screen such a way that:

(1) there are 2 parts on the screen divided vertically

(2) On the left side, user can communicate using a chat

(3) On the right side, user can see continuous streaming data

I am not sure (A) how can I do two tasks simultaneously (B)how to split the screen (is Split view the way to achieve both of these?)

Thank you.

Answer 1

A splitViewController is great for having two view controllers (or rather the views that belong to them) onscreen at the same time. Usually you see this for master-detail apps, where left you get a table view in which you select a row that gets displayed in detail on the right. Nothing stops you from using this in your own way.

Answer 2

Take RootViewController and inside its
-(void)viewDidLoad:
UIView *viewOne = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 512, 768)];
UIView *viewTwo = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(512, 0, 512, 768)]; [[self view]addSubview:viewOne];
[[self view]addSubview:viewTwo];

And you can add anything inside viewOne or viewTwo.
