How do I make a pop-up menu in iOS?
What framework would I use to make one of those popup menus that I see when I long press a field when I look at a Contact in Contacts. The popup menu is black. It looks like a horizontal bar with items separated by a very think vertical white line between each item. When I press a field while viewing a Contact, the menu gives an option to Copy and another option for iPhone to Speak.

How do I set UICloudSharingController.availablePermissions to not allow participants other than the owner of CKShare to copy or send a link from UICloudSharingController?
I have an app that uses CKShare and UICloudSharingController to share data with other users of my app. I noticed that when Owner shares with UserA, UserA is able to "copy" the link or "send" the link, as the title of the button use. How do I disable that completely so that only the owner can copy or send the link? Also, what determines whether it says "Copy Link" or "Send Link"? Does that have to do with the version of iOS? I've tried every combination of UICloudSharingController.PermissionOptions to set to UICloudSharingController..availablePermissions ... [.allowPrivate, .allowReadOnly], [.allowReadOnly], [.allowPrivate], and []. Setting the value to [] sets it to .standard, which does the exact same thing as [.allowPrivate, .allowReadOnly], though the value is different for availablePermissions property.

What does .allowReadWrite property of UICloudSharingController allow the current user to do if his/her participant permission property is readWrite?
Is the owner and the the app the only ones that can change the value of CKShare.publicPermission using UICloudSharingController? I mean, can a participant change the the value of CKShare.publicPermission using UICloudSharingController if the permission property of that participant is readWrite and the participant has access to the presented UICloudSharingController and its availablePermissions property includes allowReadWrite? What exactly does UICloudSharingController.PermissionOptions.allowReadWrite grant read and write access to? Does that mean the current user can change the CKShare.publicPermission property? I don't think the user can change the values of the permission properties of participants if he/she changes CKShare.publicPermission. The way participants are affected is that they may lose access to the CKShare, but their permission property can only be set by the owner. Am I right about this?

How do I restrict a share to only be shared by specific users in iOS 16?
Has anyone noticed that with the latest iOS (16.1.2), UICloudSharingController doesn't restrict who can have access to the share when you set the availablePermissions to include .allowReadOnly and exclude .allowReadWrite. It behaves as I expect in the previous versions of iOS. Anyone know anything that would help me with this problem?

How do I use bluetooth to send only a value of 0 and up to a bluetooth device?
How do I use Core Bluetooth in the simplest possible way to send a value of 0 to 1 from an iOS device to a bluetooth peripheral that does nothing but interpret the value sent to it as how strongly a vibrating component on the bluetooth peripheral should vibrate. A value of zero would mean the peripheral device doesn't vibrate at all, of course. The bluetooth peripheral would be the bluetooth ***** of course, and the iOS device would be the bluetooth master. The ***** device doesn't need to send anything at all to the master iOS device, except to link to the master. I don't know if that would allow the ***** bluetooth device to be any less expensive or smaller or simpler.

How do I highlight a property in CNContactViewCotnroller?
The documentation for hightlightProperty(withKey:identifier:) describes the parameter "key" as the "Key of the property to highlight." I believe that refers to the CNKeyDescriptor, such as CNContactGivenNameKey, which can cast from a type CNKeyDescriptor to String. The documentation for identifier is "the value to highlight". I believe an example of that would be "John" as the given name. Am I correct about all this? In any case, I'm not able to highlight an email property when I use CNContactEmailAddresses as the key, and an actual email address as the identifier. I have also tried using the identifier property of CNLabeledValue, which is how an email address is stored. I can't find anything on the internet to explain this. I didn't even find a similar question, except my own question asking this exact same question about two months ago. Anyone have any idea or a good answer for this?

"PosterBoard quit unexpectedly." warning in my Mac running macOS 13.4.1(c)
I don't see any current posts about the warning that says "PosterBoard quit unexpectedly." on my Mac. Older posts say this is an error generated by Xcode Simulator. I tried one of those solutions but I still see this warning coming up. I am also not using Simulator. I'm using an actual device - an iPhone 13 Pro Max running iOS 16.6. When I click on Reopen in that alert box telling me that warning message, I get a warning in an alert box with a picture of the Finder icon on it, and it says "You can’t open the application “PosterBoard.app” because this application is not supported on this Mac.". Anyone else have this problem and know what do do about it? Like fix it or get around it?

Is it effective to use UITextView as a UITextField?
Have any of you ever tried using a UITextView in stead of UITextField to do what UITextField does and does not do? I think it would make coding easier to since the two classes are similar but has to be treated a little differently by the code.
