Select the window in the storyboard, and open its Simulated Metrics property page (upper-right corner, an icon that looks like a shield next to the ruler icon). If the Simulated Metrics group is collapsed, expand it by clicking the black triangle to its left. There you will find an Orientation property; set it to `Landscape`.

The answer is correct, but I like a visual:

The answers above got me the answer, but I needed another step in Xcode 5.  Instead of just clicking on my GLKView, I needed to select the GLKit View Controller property below the view.  Then the Orientation appeared in the Attributes Inspector.

Is it possible to design interfaces in landscape with Interface Builder? Others with the same question apparently were able to do so with an arrow at the top right of any selected view, but I see no such arrow. A picture would be helpful. (Note: I am using storyboards, not xibs.)

I want my users to be able to download a PDF file and have the browser treat it as a file, not just display it (i.e. it has a filename, user gets option to save, etc.).  The following header seems to work well for this everywhere except for iOS:

    Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=file.pdf

iOS just ignores this and displays the image or document.  No big deal, you might think, except I&#39;m doing this in a hidden IFRAME as part of my download page, so the document is never even seen, and it looks like the download failed.

What&#39;s the best way to handle this in a cross-browser compatible manner?  Does iOS just ignore this header?  I can&#39;t find any spec or mention of this anywhere.  

Do I need to check for iOS in request headers and serve the response differently?  I was hoping to avoid this.  Thanks.

P.S. Any other helpful tips related to downloading files etc. in iOS web browsers are appreciated.

CLARIFICATION:  This regarding a regular web site browsed by the mobile Safari browser.  Not a native app.

I&#39;m developing an iOS 4 application using iOS SDK latest version and XCode 4.2.

I have a XIB with a `UIWebView` with **Alpha = 1.0**, **Background** set to **Clear Color** and **Opaque** is not set. On this XIB I setup an image as background with this code:

    - (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
    {
        self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
        if (self) {
            UIColor *background = [[UIColor alloc] initWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:@&quot;AboutBackground.png&quot;]];
            self.view.backgroundColor = background;
            [background release];
        }
        return self;
    }

The `UIWebView` is showing an static html:

    &lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;&lt;/head&gt;&lt;body style=\&quot;margin:0 auto;text-align:center;background-color: transparent; color:white\&quot;&gt;...&lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;

On iOS 5 simulator, its background is transparent, but on an iOS 4 device is grey.

Any clue?


UIWebView background is set to Clear Color, but it is not transparent

I referred to the [DOC](http://developer.apple.com/library/IOs/#documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIView_Class/UIView/UIView.html#//apple_ref/occ/clm/UIView/animateWithDuration:animations:) and it said:
&gt; __completion__  
&gt; ... This block has no return value and takes a single Boolean argument that indicates whether or not the animations actually finished before the completion handler was called. ...

But I find that no matter you use the bool parameter or not, the `completion:` block will always execute after `animations:` block. Just like the two simple block-based animation code snippets shown below, both of them are doing the same.

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3f
                      delay:0.0f
                    options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut
                 animations:^{
                     [myView setAlpha:0.0f];
                 }
                 completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                     [myView removeFromSuperview];
                 }];
and

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3f
                      delay:0.0f
                    options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut
                 animations:^{
                     [myView setAlpha:0.0f];
                 }
                 completion:^(BOOL finished) {
                     if (finished) [myView removeFromSuperview];
                 }];

And I find that most people(including me) use the first one(even the apple&#39;s official doc example). So,

- what&#39;s the `finished` parameter used for here exactly?
- or what&#39;s the situation will be used?

What exactly does bool parameter do in animateWithDuration:animations:completion:

In my iOS 5 app, I have an `NSString` that contains a JSON string. I would like to deserialize that JSON string representation into a native `NSDictionary` object.

     &quot;{\&quot;password\&quot; : \&quot;1234\&quot;,  \&quot;user\&quot; : \&quot;andreas\&quot;}&quot;
 
### I tried the following approach:

    NSDictionary *json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:@&quot;{\&quot;2\&quot;:\&quot;3\&quot;}&quot;
                                    options:NSJSONReadingMutableContainers
                                      error:&amp;e];  

### But it throws the a runtime error. What am I doing wrong?

    -[__NSCFConstantString bytes]: unrecognized selector sent to instance 0x1372c

I am trying to adjust the cell height for one of the cells on my table view. I am adjusting the size from the &quot;row height&quot; setting inside the &quot;size inspector&quot; of the cell in question. When I run the app on my iPhone the cell has the default size set from the &quot;row size&quot; in the table view.

If I change the &quot;row size&quot; of the table view then the size of all cells changes. I do not want to do that as I want a custom size only for one cell. I have seen a lot of posts that have a programmatic solution to the problem, but I would prefer to do it through storyboard, if that is possible.

A while ago I was experimenting, trying to see if i could get navigation items to animate and scroll between each other.

I don&#39;t know if this is related but suddenly without touching the simulator options I&#39;m getting this message `Simulator slow-motion animations are now on` and moving between views is very slow, like 3 seconds. This occurs with all animation effects.

Any idea what I need to do to stop this ?

What are the **main differences** between using Storyboards and xib files.

  Specifically,
 what are the **advantages or disadvantages** of using a Storyboard?

  Unfortunately, despite doing quite a bit of research, all I&#39;ve been able to find on Storyboards are simple tutorials that show you how to set up a Storyboard, instead of concrete information explaining what they are.

What are the benefits of using Storyboards instead of xib files in iOS programming?

I&#39;m trying to create a container view controller using `iOS5` and new methods like `addChildViewController`.

Do I have to call `addSubview` after calling `addChildViewController`?

Do I have to call `removeFromSuperview` before calling `removeChildViewController`?

I don&#39;t see anything about this in Apple docs.
What do you think?

I have a view that needs to have its frame manipulated programmatically - it&#39;s a kind of document view that wraps to its content which is then scrolled and zoomed around a superview by manipulating the frame origin. Autolayout fights with this at runtime.

Disabling autolayout completely seems a bit harsh because it could reasonably be used to handle layout for the other views. It seems like what I might want is some kind of &quot;null constraint&quot;.


Can I disable autolayout for a specific subview at runtime?

Which `init` method is called by the storyboard for `UIViewControllers` added to the storyboard?

How do I change &quot;initwithNibName&quot; in storyboard?

I&#39;m looking for alternative ways to push view controllers instantiated on storyboard programmatically.
I&#39;ve actually found two ways, that I use to go to the next view, but also to go back to the previous:

 1. using `pushViewController`:


        UIStoryboard *storyboard = [UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@&quot;MainStoryboard&quot; bundle: nil]; 
        LocationWebView *lvc = [storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@&quot;LocationWebView&quot;];
        [self.navigationController pushViewController:lvc animated:YES];



 2. performing `Segue` programmatically:

        [self performSegueWithIdentifier: @&quot;SongSegue&quot; sender: self];


Do you have some hints on alternatives and on the best way this operation should be performed? Note that I&#39;m not referring to modal views.
