Switchable subview in window for iphone app

I've been looking everywhere but can't seem to find any examples/tutorials for my situation (not sure how to google it..) So i have a window where a portion of it should be static (buttons and such) and there is a dynamic part (bottom leftish) that should change subviews.

So what i'm looking for is a way so that clicking the buttons in the static area will change the dynamic area to a view of my choice. I have no idea how to do this using the IB, but doing it p开发者_开发技巧rogramatically seems the only way. Any suggestions(I do not want to use a tab bar controller)?

Thanks!

You can also achieve it programatically. Just create another viewcontroller class (as many as u want). In the loadView method of it create a UIView in the coordinates where u want to add the subview in the current view. Now create an instance of this viewcontroller class in the currentview controller and add it as a subview. You will get the subview at the desired location.If u want to change it dynamically create as many views and then add them to the array and change them whenever the button is clicked. Hope this helps.

You should perform the switch in your view controller. The static buttons can have their actions hooked up to that controller (in IB), which can have an outlet (in IB) to the subviews and perform the swap.

As for when you should use IB, see this question.

You can do it from interface builder as well. You just need to take viewController from interface builder drag-n-drop to main window. assign IBAction to all buttons to add different viewController's view to main window just make their frame some smaller.

if u want to change or views by click on button then u chose segmentcontrol switch. and cod for each segment like as when click on segment 0 then open first sub view and when click on segment1 then open second sub view. And make by default unselected so that ur static view will appear initially lunching of view.
