I've searched and found a couple of postings regarding this but unfortunately for me no splitview controller screen plugin - yet. Does anyone have any advice on how I might create this on my own using buzztouch plugins? Is it possible at all? Thanks in advance.

One idea: all you would have to do is create an XIB (or storyboard) file for iPad and shape the view into a split view controller. Another idea: check out this guide on split-view controllers: http://www.techotopia.com/index.php/An_iPad_iOS_7_Split_View_and_Popover_Example Jake Comments Yes, this should be possible.

I think the hardest part for me (and my lack of xcode/programming skills) will how to slip the splitview into the middle of my app since it wouldn't be the launch screen. I'm going to need to wire the BT screens to "talk" to the native xcode screen and vise versa. The splitview I would create would be accessed from a BT plugin. Oh well, I'll start a fresh pot of coffee now. Thanks again. Comments Many thanks for the reply. I'll check it out.

That Splitview screen will be connected to a parent screen, such as a Menu screen. You will use normal BuzzTouch Web Control Panel to wire the two together. The harder part will be to create the Custom plugin for Splitviews. Reply please by posting the links in the forums you had found on Splitviews. Perhaps I can glean a way to make it happen. Jake is correct that it can be started with a XIB file. Also, you can hire Kittsy or Chris1 to make a custom plugin for you -- Niraj Comments The Splitview will be a custom plugin.

And if you use the lessons on there and couple with buzztouch, there is no way you wont be successful. Comments Try looking here. http://www.lynda.com It's cheap, only $25 a month.
