iOS Question Best view for a deck of images (like photo album view)

[Darren69]

Hello Everyone,

I have been trying to find the best way to display a load of bitmaps on a scrollable page, a little like the album picture viewer on the phones, but the images are from a locally stored database. I also want to capture a click on any given picture so that I can then do something, I started out by adding views to a panel, but soon realised that this is probably not the best way to do it so hit the forums looking for a better way.

any thoughts as to the best way / most efficient way to implement this?

thanks in advance

Darren

You should assume that it is not possible to load all bitmaps into memory. This means that you need to load the on screen bitmaps and release the off screen ones.

It reuses the views to show very large tables. You need to do something similar.

I will take a look in to it, I had seen the post on using tables, but didn't know if I could use it for bitmaps, time to make a cup of tea and dive in to this.

thanks for the point in the path to take!
