home menu plugin using xib files??

I don't suppose anyone is making, or has a simple example of, a basic home screen using xib files with buttons that link to other Buzztouch screens. I REALLY REALLY want to redo my button home screen using xib files. I've checked out the coding for the timer plugin but doesn't seem to help much with loading other screens. Josh

You could create a custom plugin, and use nib2objc.

Theres nothing easier than jumping into Xcode and creating simple menus and UIs using storyboard!, I'm sure there would be some good tutorials on youtube or vimeo... If not give me a shout if you are still struggling. Nick

Hi Mutzy, Don't know if this is what you are looking for but I hope to send my new plugin before the end of the week to buzztouch for approval. http://www.buzztouch.com/forum/thread.php?tid=45DA65C4EE4867EE86FC536&command=isSearching&currentPage=1&topicTitle=design%20menu&createdBy=&repliedBy=&minViews=-1&maxViews=-1&minReplies=-1&maxReplies=-1&forumCategory= Best Regards, Danny

Danny, This looks great! Will it include xib files? Either way I hope it gets through the approval process quickly. I think I could probably make xib files on my own, but getting them to work in an existing BT app is something different. Thanks!

Hi mutzy, Thanks. No it doesn't use xib files. Just graphical files that gets inserted, from the control panel, into the rows. Because it's so 'pixel perfect' (you give exact location, width, height etc) you can only use it on iPhone Portrait view. If you have other plans/views then this may not be suitable for you. I hope I can get it finnished by the end of the week and that approval won't take long. Best Regards, Danny
