I had asp.net back ground and now developing apps for Iphone. I have been wondering is there some thing master view or theme for app as we had master pages for website designing in asp dotnet which make the whole website design generic
thanks
No you really don't have anything similar. You do get two great application templates, the Tab based view or the Navigation based. In the navigation controller certain things follow each view like the style of the navigation bar but that is it.
If you want to use something like PhoneGap and drop that into XCode then use a web based UI framework like jqTouch, then you can have a template :) but that is a completely different application model.
Master View? I'm not sure what you mean by this. You have a Window (UIWindow) that you add Views to (UIView). You only have one window, but are free to have as many Views as you like.
So it depends what you want to add, for example i have a banner that i want at the tope of evert screen. I added the ImageView to the window and scaled the Views so they left the top of the window showing.
If you wanted to add some default behaviour to your Views and or add an image view to every view. You could simply subclass UIViewController and go from there?
If you give a touch more detail about what you want to achieve I'll gladly go into more detail.

I need to create few templates for E-commerce site. Can anyone guide me as how to create templates in Kentico 9 ? There is an existing site and I need to create five other templates for the same. Am totally new to Kentico.
Please help.
There are many generic templates in Kentico, so you could clone any of them and modify to your needs - this might be easier for you to edit existing one as you'll have an example.
I'd recommend you to take following steps:
Go to Pages application in Kentico administration
Select any page in content tree on the left
go to properties -> template
Save as new template (so you do not screw up exting one) and save your changes
Switch to Design tab - this is where you build/configure you template
On the Design tab there is green line with template name and hamburger menu, where you can choose edit layout - this is where you can implement markup of the page as well as split your page into zones. After you accomplish html for you page save changes and close current dialog.
Now you should be back to Design tab. Here you can add web parts to zones you've specified in the layout. There is huge amount of different web parts (user controls). All they have different purpose and settings, so you should check documentation and figure out which one should be used in your particular case.
Try editable text, editable image, repeater, navigation in order to get an idea how it works.
I am using Visual Studio 2012 and can easily create a single page application. I would like to create a second page and have it appear to the right of the main page. Windows Phones will give you a little peek into the next page and you can swipe the screen to switch pages. How can this be done? I think it needs to be more than handling an event, because of the peek/preview we can see on the right edge.
Are you thinking of a panorama control? This sounds like what you're talking about, although another option in most situations is a pivot control.
If you want to see a a part of the next page you need to use Panorama control
You can use Panorama Control in WP8 SDK for this. Start with the Windows Phone Panorama App template in Create New Project in VS: How to create a Panorama Windows Phone App.
The PIVOT CONTROL is more manageable than the PANORAMA.
Panorama cannot navigate programmatically from one page to another, while the pivot control allows you that! [see here for implementation]
See pivot control example and compare with panorama example if you will.
I'm working on an XPages Mobile app using mobile controls from Extension Library.
My hope page is a menu leading to 4 different mobilePages.
I get this this is 1 XPage and we're dealing with "Virtual Pages". But is there a way to clear viewScope variables and document bindings as you go back and forth between virtual pages?
For instance. In one of my pages I ask the user for some data. 3 Fields stored in viewScope Variables. Using that I then have a button to Create a new document which gets bound to a panel and then I do things with it.
If the user hits "back" from the menu bar, to go to the Home screen and then goes back to the same page I want to clear everything and start all over.
setting resetContent= true doesn't do anything here.
My virtual page is a custom control and I tried to clear everything on beforePageLoad but that wiped it all during a manual refresh.
I tried hooking into the rendered property of the back button but that fired during a full page refresh. Possibly I could live with partial refreshes but someone might still manually refresh it.
Any way to get this ability inside the single page app mobile context?
Thanks!
See the following XSnippet on OpenNTF.org for your answer and a worked example - have fun! BTW: this is something we want to support on the Mobile App Page in an upcoming release - for now you can use the worked example I provide on XSnippets!

Have you tried using requestScope for the virtual page bindings? From your description, it sounds like this would be the correct scope to use.
I am working on enterprise apps, I am using telerik controls to make life easier ;)
The layout of my application on the left radpanelbar used for the navigation menu, on the right side is the content.
I want to make this navigation menu to navigate to a usercontrol (.ascx file) instead of a page (.aspx file)
The navigation control is in the master page.
I have multiple reasons to make this kind of navigation:
I have many user controls, and do not want to make pages (.aspx) as many user controls as I have.
Which is the most important I want to make this happen on the fly with out post pack (AJAX).
So please could any one tell about the best practice to do it.
One possible solution might be to load the navigation user control programmatically via AJAX when the user clicks a panelbar item. Still positioning this user control on the master page and loading it from the content page is quite odd to me and I personally do not approve it as a good architectural decision.
I want to develop an application like LifeRay control panel which has right navigation menu and a page that renders the clicked menu.
My question is how to develop at for example as one portlet or multi portlet taking into considaration (portlet communication)? and how to handle navigation inside portlet?
I'm using Icefaces(JSF) for portlet development and there is a section repeated for other pages(template)
Is there an example in liferay source for this?
Can't you just adjust a theme to have the navigation at the side as opposed to the default (at the top)? This way you'd be developing a plain portal application without any special magic - probably the most intuitive way to go.
Also, others will likely be able to quickly understand what you did and are able to add functionality.
