iPhone : form like new contact

Question

I have some questions about the Apple iPhone Contact App. I want to use the same methode to create and modify information.

Here's two pics :

So we have the creation and the edition. The form looks like an UITableView with a groupedStyle but I don't know how to re-creat all of this. Have you got an idea or a tutorial that might explain how to do it ?

Thanks a lot !

I have been looking for a detailed answer to this too. Did you ever get a good answer? — Jason Webb, Mar 14 '11 at 04:50

the top bit is a UIView with a UIImageView and a UITableView, this view is set as the header of the overall UITableView.

As for the editing, you need to swap out the UILabel, with a UITextField, which has the same frame, and font-size. move the content from one view to another.

This worked for me. I might I add that the HeaderFooter sample code by Apple was helpful too. – Ali Jun 18 '13 at 15:51

Create a UIView that is a line, then add it as a subview to the cell

//in cellForRowAtIndexPath
UIView *lineView = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(80,0,1,44)];
lineView.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGreyColor];
[cell addSubview:lineView];

Customizing the UITableview is definitely the way to go. To make it a little simpler on yourself, you may want to check out the Sensible Tableview, which makes all of this much easier to implement: http://thenextweb.com/dd/2011/04/12/an-ios-developers-dream-sensible-tableview/?awesm=tnw.to_17mDs

Please note that Sensible Tableview is a commercial product. – David Kay May 12 '13 at 05:33

I'm trying to develop something like this and imagining it. In my opinion, if you look closely, the screen seems to be composed of a vertical UIScrollView. This component will hold a UITableView with multiple sections or maybe even several UITableView components. When focusing textfields on cells, the UIScrollview scrolls the content to place the selected textfield in a more suitable/balanced .y position, for viewing and editing.

It can be accomplished by customizing table views. Use the custom cells based on the section for the table view.

No need to create your own table view. The address book framework creates absolutely all of this and will even add contacts to the iPhone's address book too.
