UIActionSheet might be an appropriate alternative to the AlertView.

Hello,
in the iPhone application I'm writing, I need to display an alert
that may have 2 or 3 buttons, depending on whether or not the device
supports some features. The first 2 buttons always have the same
titles in the two scenarios but, in the 2-button scenario, the
buttons appear side-by-side rather than vertically oriented (which
is the orientation used when there are more than 2 buttons).
The problem is that the button titles get truncated if the buttons
are side by side, so I would like to force the buttons to be laid
out vertically even when there are only 2 buttons. Yes, I could try
to change the titles (which I have already done my best to) but that
imposes what, in my opinion, is an unnecessary restriction.
Alternatively, I could have the third button disabled and do it all
with only one 3-button alert, but it doesn't seem possible to
configure alert buttons in that fashion.
Right now, I'm resorting to putting up TWO alerts, each with 3
buttons. If the user presses the button corresponding to unsupported
features, I put up the second alert (explaining that the device
doesn't support the selected features), with the same first 2
buttons, and a third one to "quit" to the home screen.
It works, but it's not very satisfying.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
