Can you link to a picture (even if it's just a block of color showing where) of what you want to do?
You can float a view over the top of the MT.D list, or any other view for that matter. Just: var view = new UIView(new RectangleF(0,20,320,40)); view.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Red; viewThatIsAlsoTheParentOfTheDialogViewController.AddSubview(view); you can also use view.BringToFront to move it forward, but the last one added should be at the top of the stack. I also do this here https://github.com/nicwise/londonbikeapp/blob/master/londonbikeapp/NearDialogViewController.cs https://github.com/nicwise/londonbikeapp/blob/master/londonbikeapp/NearDialogViewController.cs#L100 The compass view (which is just a view with a label in it, and rounded corners) just floats over the MT.D list. http://www.fastchicken.co.nz/londonbikeapp/ (first screenshot is the compass. second one shows a view, similar to the one above, floating above the map) On Tue, Oct 16, 2012 at 2:22 PM, appli <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm still new to MT and perhaps some kind person could help me with this > small problem of mine. > > I have built a simple app using only MT.Dialog and it has been a pleasant > experience.
