How to subclass TTPhotoViewController to add a button

[Rémy Virin]

Hi,

I'd like to subclass TTPhotoViewController, because I need to add a
button (like the one in facebook to see the comments and the likes)

I didn't found a solution, How can I do that ?

Thanks a lot :)

Rémy.

I don't have the full information infront of me, but the
TTPhotoViewController contains a lot of views, find the correct view
and add a button to it, custom button.

It is real simple.

Right click the text TTPhotoViewController, pick jump to definition,
pick the .h file, and you see all views.

I'm not sure to understand everything.

Correct me if I'm wrong.

TTPhotoViewController contains a UIToolBar, which contains 2
UIbarButtonItems : _nextButton and _previousButton.

I tried to modify the UIToolBar but I can't, because it's a private
variable.

So the only way I found, is to modify TTPhotoViewController, which is
quite a bad idea I think...

Am I correct ?

Thanks for your help Trausti.

Rémy.

Hey I'm trying to do the same thing for a Save button. Did you ever
figure out how to subclass or modify TTPhotoViewController?

[Alex Corcoran]

I figured it out. I subclassed TTPhotoViewController as such

PhotoController.h:

#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
#import <Three20/Three20.h>

@interface PhotoController : TTPhotoViewController
<TTScrollViewDelegate>{
}

@end


PhotoController.m:

#import "PhotoController.h"
#import "TourPhotoSource.h"

@implementation PhotoController
-(void)viewDidLoad{
// New item to be added
UIBarButtonItem *customItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithTitle:@"Save" style:UIBarButtonItemStyleBordered target:self
action:@selector(action:)];
// Flex space to keep the back / forward arrows centered
UIBarButtonItem *flex = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc]
initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace
target:nil action:nil];

// Create array with items starting with the left side
NSMutableArray *items = [NSMutableArray arrayWithObject:flex];
// Then add the current items (the back / forward arrows)
[items addObjectsFromArray:[_toolbar items]];
// Add in our new item to the far right
[items addObject:customItem];

[_toolbar setItems:items];
[customItem release];
[flex release];
}

-(void)action:(id)sender{
// Perform your action
}

@end

For saving a photo it required some other adjustments in my TTPhoto
subclass and such but that should at least help you add the button.
Hope that helps. Good luck!

How did you then use your subclassed TTPhotoViewController? I am
using the mockphotosource code from TTCatalog, and I am not seeing how
TTPhotoViewController is implemented.

Someone managed to solve this issue? I want to do something like this
but could not find an answer.
