Add another view in GMGridView

Question

Hello all,

I have to add one more view in cell of GMGridView. But i am unable to do this because i have to drag my label from view to view1.

My code is :

- (GMGridViewCell *)GMGridView:(GMGridView *)gridView1 cellForItemAtIndex:(NSInteger)index
        {
        // set size based on orientation

        CGSize size = [self GMGridView:gridView sizeForItemsInInterfaceOrientation:[[UIApplication sharedApplication] statusBarOrientation]];
        GMGridViewCell *cell = [gridView dequeueReusableCell];
        if (!cell)
        {
                cell = [[[GMGridViewCell alloc]init]autorelease];

//one view
                UIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, size.width, size.height)];
                view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
                view.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
                view.layer.cornerRadius = 2;
                cell.contentView = view;

//another view
            UIView *view1 = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 80, size.width, size.height)];
            view1.backgroundColor = [UIColor yellowColor];
            view1.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
            view1.layer.cornerRadius = 2;
            cell.contentView = view1;
        }
        [[cell.contentView subviews] makeObjectsPerformSelector:@selector(removeFromSuperview)];

        // allocate label
        UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:cell.contentView.bounds];
        label.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight;
        label.text = (NSString *)[self.currentData objectAtIndex:index];
        label.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
        label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
        label.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
        label.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:20];
        [cell.contentView addSubview:label];
        return cell;
    }

height of cell is 200. but still it shows only one view.

Loading Two types of Cell in GMGridView

This is your Solution, it works as charm..

First Do this Exactly

-(void)prepareExhibitor
{
    NSInteger spacing = 1.0;
    CGRect rect=self.view.frame;
    rect.origin=CGPointMake(0, 0);
    self.gmGridView = [[GMGridView alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
    self.gmGridView.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    self.gmGridView.centerGrid=NO;

self.gmGridView.style = GMGridViewStylePush;

self.gmGridView.layoutStrategy = [GMGridViewLayoutStrategyFactory strategyFromType:GMGridViewLayoutHorizontal];

self.gmGridView.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator=FALSE;
self.gmGridView.clipsToBounds=YES;
self.gmGridView.itemSpacing = spacing;
self.gmGridView.minEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0,30, 0, 0);
[self.viewNewsHeadline addSubview:self.gmGridView];
self.gmGridView.actionDelegate = self;
self.gmGridView.dataSource = self;
self.gmGridView.mainSuperView = self.superView;

}

Then Write this accordingly as per your Code

- (GMGridViewCell *)GMGridView:(GMGridView *)gridView cellForItemAtIndex:(NSInteger)index
{


    GMGridViewCell *cell = [gridView dequeueReusableCell];
    NewsCell_iPad *view;
    UIViewController *controller;


    if (!cell)
    {

        // [self removeGrid];
        cell = [[GMGridViewCell alloc] init];
        if(index%2==0)
        {
            controller=[[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"NewsCellTypeA_iPad" bundle:nil];
        }
        else
        {
            controller=[[UIViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"NewsCellTypeB_iPad" bundle:nil];
        }
        if(!view)
        {
            view=(NewsCell_iPad *)controller.view;
        }

        cell.layer.masksToBounds = NO;
        cell.contentView = view;
    }


    NewsCell_iPad *newsView=(NewsCell_iPad *)cell.contentView;
        newsView.news=[self.arrNews objectAtIndex:index];
      [self hideGradientBackground:newsView.webViewDetailedNews];
    [newsView downloadImage];
    [newsView loadWebView];
   // NSLog(@"cell=%d ,arr image index=%@",index,[self.arrNews objectAtIndex:index]);


    return cell;
}
