How do I do this?
Caveat: you ought to listen to Quincey's advice, since it will give a more robust, or at least a cleaner, implementation. That said, for the specific situation at hand, UIView has a superview property that returns a reference to, well, the view's superview (if it exists). If you have the label as a property of view1 ("theLabel"), you could do something like the following (in viewController2): UILabel *theLabel = [[[self view] superview] theLabel]; If it's a tagged view, you could do something like: NSInteger labelTag = (whatever you set, probably in IB); UILabel *theLabel = [[[self view] superview] viewWithTag:labelTag]; (Since properties are involved, you are of course free to use dot syntax in many places above if that's your preference.) - -- Conrad Shultz Synthetiq Solutions www.synthetiqsolutions.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.7 (Darwin) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org/ iD8DBQFMmRSvaOlrz5+0JdURApMYAJ0aAv996lOHMDyY5oTKg0ju0LIbIACePwij i3EBvDqS2WGzo+wnrBT9Mz8= =Ea2B -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
