What's the best way of handling a UIPageControl that has so many dots they don't all fit on the screen?

I created an eBook application that used UIScrollView that contained a UIWebView. The book had over 100 pages so UIPageControl could not handle it because of the problem you pointed out. I ended up creating a custom "slider" type view that acted similar to UIPageControl but could handle the large number of pages.

That's pretty much what you will need to do. UIPage control cannot handle as many pages as you want...

I have a UIPageControl in my application that looks perfectly fine with around 10 pages (dots), it's possible however for the user to add many different views, and so the number of dots could become say 30. When this happens the dots just disappear of the edge of the screen, and you can't always see the currently selected page, making it all look terrible. Is there any way to make the pagecontrol multi-line, or to shift it left or right at the moment the currently visible page disappears of the screen.

As per my knowledge,if you are having so many pages,its better to use any method other than UIPageControl. – Sarah Jan 20 '11 at 9:56 It's not a typical situation, 99% of the time there will only be 5-6 pages and the page view is useful and the right choice. The problem is that it is possible to add as many as you like, and when this happens (not often) I'd like it to not look terrible.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
