How to change the position of a UIButton dynamically

Question

I have a group of 31 buttons in a IBOutletCollection,

This is to create a calendar (i.e) the number of days in a month, I have to change the position of these buttons depending on the 1st days week day, that looks like a calendar.

I am not able to add target-action mechanism when I write code to implement the same in Xcode 4.2, so I tried do'g it in the Interface Builder using IBOutlet Collection.

But now the question is how do I change the postion of these bottons each one representing the one day of the month?

You can change the position like so:

myButton.frame = CGRectMake( x, y, width, height );

eg.

myButton.frame = CGRectMake( 20, 20, 100, 50 );

I'm not sure exactly what your calendar is for - but you might want to check out an open source iPhone calendar, it's pretty good: http://cocoacontrols.com/platforms/ios/controls/kal

You could either just use it as it is, or look at how it's implemented and use that to help you develop yours.

For changing the position, use the center property of that button.

For example:

theButton.center = CGPointMake(10.0f, 10.0f);
