Answer 1

There are many ways to implement it : 1. Constraints ( adjusting from xcode->editor->pin) 2. By pragmatically.

I personally suggest you to take a deep knowledge of this

Try to implement -(void)willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration . This method gets called when the device is rotated. Here you can set the frame of the UITextField .

Alternatively you can try to set the AutoresizingMask.

1. You can achieve this by AUTO LAYOUT (iOS6 new feature). Any new xib that you create in iOS6 will have Auto Layout activated by default. You have to adjust constraint. for this select your text field and image view. Now From Xcode's Editor menu, select Pin. Pin your text field and image view.

1. You can also achieve this by pragmatically.

set frames for your text field and image in willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation

   - (void)willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation 
                                     duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration
   {
        [super willAnimateRotationToInterfaceOrientation:toInterfaceOrientation duration:duration];

        if (toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeLeft
        ||  toInterfaceOrientation == UIInterfaceOrientationLandscapeRight)
        {
            // set frame for your text field and image in landscape orientation.
        }
        else
        {
            // set frame for your text field and image in landscape orientation.
        }
   }

Thats It.
