On the right- hand side, I'd like to have two buttons next to one another, one with a UIBarButtonSystemItemEdit icon and the other with a UIBarButtonSystemItemAdd icon. The closest I have come was trying to use a custom UIView: UIButton *editButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,100,75)]; editButton.titleLabel.text = @Edit; UIButton *backButton = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(100,0,100,75)]; backButton.titleLabel.text = @Back; UIView *backAndEditButtons = [[UIView alloc] init]; // Add two buttons to view [backAndEditButtons addSubview:backButton]; [backAndEditButtons addSubview:editButton]; self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backAndEditButtons]; This doesn't work: I see nothing at all on the right-hand side of the UINavigationBar. I am new at manipulating UIViews, so any corrections to the code above are welcome. Also if anyone feels I should try an entirely different approach to solving the problem, I'm interested. steven ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

The convention seems to be for the Add item to be on the bottom. Or you could expose it when Edit mode is active. You'll find plenty of examples of both (Mail and Contacts come to mind). --Kyle Sluder ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Re: Two right buttons on UINavigationBar?
It looks like it is a bug. Someone else have same problem. http://blog.7touchgroup.com/2009/08/uinavigationitem-sethidesbackbuttonyes-won ’t-prevent-from-goingback/ I would like to change the action of the Done button. As you see in UINavigationBar.h (line 62) it has only 2 items (topItem and backItem). They have readonly flag. I can't touch them. UIBarButtonItem *buttonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:@selector(toggleHelpGame)]; UINavigationItem *navigationItem = [[UINavigationItem alloc] initWithTitle:@Help]; navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = buttonItem; [navigationItem setLeftBarButtonItem:nil]; [self.sideNavigationBarCtrl pushNavigationItem:navigationItem animated:NO]; [navigationItem release]; [buttonItem release]; It works fine, but show previous Button as well. I was unable to get rid of that button. In a reality we created a new UIBarButtonItem inside bar control, but never changed the previous attribute of Done button. I have a work around to create another bar and hide the previous bar. Any help will be very much appreciated.

Re: Two right buttons on UINavigationBar?
you might: * change the buttons programmatically every time. * drag 2 UIBarButtonItems in your InterfaceBuilder file, set the connections and the captions in IB. Then in XCode, you can change the buttons by using NSArray * topLevelObjs = nil; topLevelObjs = [[NSbundle mainBndle] loadNibName@yourNibFile owner:nameOfNIBFilesOwner options: nil]; UIBarButtonItem * barButton1 = (UIBarButtonItem *)[topLevelObjs objectAtIndex: indexNumber]; you could build in some error checking, like checking the class and the tag of the UIBarButtonItem. Feel free to comment on this! Op 6-aug-2009, om 7:47 heeft Agha Khan het volgende geschreven: Hi: I have a UINavigationBar where I would like to place 2 buttons.

If one of your buttons is always hidden, why do you need two buttons? You can just use one button and change the title, target, and action when you need to. If necessary you can even replace the whole button. Hank On Aug 6, 2009, at 1:47 AM, Agha Khan wrote: Hi: I have a UINavigationBar where I would like to place 2 buttons.
