Actually at this point I'm only worried about just the built in
controls and it seems that the only control that is really giving me
a problem is the editfields (the first app I am working on is really
simple) I wonder if the issue is that controls with no 'labels' are
going to be problematic. I'll have to dig into the UA docs on the
apple site and see what I might need to do. Probably I should look
for tickets in the feedback system or make some.
Thanks
