I don't know if it can be a bug on MonoTouch, but I made a workaround with InvokeMember, getting the control by name with reflectionÂ

So each view that is open it changes things to the user. But, some ViewControllers was converted to the new "template" of MonoTouch 2.8 x Xcode 4 like: [Outlet] MonoTouch.UIKit.UINavigationBar lblTitle { get; set; } [Outlet] MonoTouch.UIKit.UIBarButtonItem menuItemBack { get; set; } And now all UINAvigationBar and UiBarButtonItem aren't recognized anymore. A Null is returned by GetNativeField. All ViewControllers in project that are still on the old fashioned "template" are ok, like: [MonoTouch.Foundation.Connect("lblTitle")] private MonoTouch.UIKit.UINavigationItem lblTitle { get { this.__mt_lblTitle = ((MonoTouch.UIKit.UINavigationItem)(this.GetNativeField("lblTitle"))); return this.__mt_lblTitle; } set { this.__mt_lblTitle = value; this.SetNativeField("lblTitulo", value); } } [MonoTouch.Foundation.Connect("menuItemBack")] private MonoTouch.UIKit.UIBarButtonItem menuItemBack { get { this.__mt_menuItemBack = ((MonoTouch.UIKit.UIBarButtonItem)(this.GetNativeField("menuItemBack"))); return this.__mt_menuItemBack; } set { this.__mt_menuItemBack = value; this.SetNativeField("menuItemBack", value); } } So, to test, I edit on Interface Builder an old ViewController, to make MonoDevelop to change the code to the new template and GetNativeField stop to find. Is there a better or new way to get a control from it's name? All other things on screen are OK to find, like buttons and labels.
