I know there are some built in button images like "add"(which gives you a plus) and "edit"(which says edit).
Is there one for a camera?
Use UIBarButtonSystemItem.Camera
Apple's HIG lists all of the available system buttons
I found this site that has a nice big list of all the drawables you can use from Android.

In iOS7 Music app, when the track changes, the album cover will change with a slide transition
in WPF, I'm using iTunes COM and I replace the image source in the onplayerplayevent, is it possible to add a slide transition when the image change source?
if possible, can i add two transitions? slide left when i press the previous button and slide right when the song finishes and when i press the next button.
Thanks anyway. Just tell me if this is possible.
Developing view transitions from scratch is no easy feat, but luckily enough, there are pre-written libraries that can do this for us. I found a really useful library that you can use for this purpose. It features many different transitions (not just sliding transitions), just like PowerPoint and is really easy to use. It is called Transitionals and you can download it from the CodePlex website:
Transitionals
This Transitionals library is now on version 1.2, but you can download the help file for version 1.0 by clicking on the 'TransitionalsHelp_1_0.zip' link on this page on CodePlex.
I've made an app for the Windows desktop and also created it for the modern (metro) interface in Windows 8.1. I wanted to group them under the same start tile and have a setting that allowed the user to open the app in the chosen mode by clicking the start tile. I got this idea from Chrome, which has both modes referenced by the same tile in the start menu or the link on the taskbar. I thought that maybe when the setting was changed I would delete the current one and replace it with one that referenced the other mode, but positioning is a problem, as a new tile always appears at the far right of the start screen. How would I resize the tile correctly and how would I delete and replace a link on the taskbar? I am using VB right now, but I can write C# and C++ so feel free to post code or links to code that are written in these languages.
If you have any suggestions, please post a reply or a ask a question in the comments.
I also should note that I prefer to use native libraries only and do not like using third-party dlls.
Thanks in advance for the help.
P.S. I've already tried Google.
I've figured it out!
The best way to do this is to create two registry keys referencing the two interfaces but make both the desktop and modern version not have a start tile! Then create a third app that has a tile and make it open the files, check for the active interface, and send the data to that interface with the file as a param.
Thanks for everyone's help, though :)
I'm trying to add a media viewer page on my app (very similar to the photo app on WP), so my first idea was to open a new Pivot Page with one photo on each page, but it overload the memory when there is to much photos and I don't have the zoom in / zoom out fonctionnality.
Then I found this cool example provided by Microsoft who do exactly what I wanna do :
http://code.msdn.microsoft.com/wpapps/Basic-Lens-sample-359fda1b
The problem is, I've tried many things, but I can't get it to work. Do you have any idea how I could use this cool Media Viewer ? What classes should I import? How to implement it in my project?
The Media Viewer class is indeed not that simple!
I've also started to tweak it so it would fit my purpose, the solution isn't finished, but you can already take a look at it here: https://github.com/Depechie/ImageSliderMediaClass
I changed the class so that it would act as one horizontal image scrolling overview, without the zooming capability.
I am looking to create a UI experience almost identical to swiping through images in the Camera Roll on the iPhone. I have 5 images that I simply want to be able to swipe through. This view will be the first view of a Tab Bar Controller that I have in place. This is my first iPhone (iOS) app attempt so if anyone feels this question needs to be broken down into smaller chunks, please let me know.
Here's an example of the paging control for MonoTouch I developed some time ago: https://github.com/escoz/monotouch-controls
Take a look at the PagedViewController. That code is actually used in my app, Quicklytics.
Use Pagecontroller.
In this example they have add label, instead of that you add your imageView.
EDIT:
For Monotouch.
The Photos module of Nimbus is exactly what you are looking for.

Well i am developing an application whose interface requires an animated slide show
and by animated slide show i means UI components placed together change their positions after regular intervals in a sliding (animated) fashion. Let me illustrate my idea with the following image,
(source: deviantart.com)
in the image above there are three columns of UI components that i want to slide, what i could do is simply write a module to change x,y coordinates of the components that would give the animated slide effect but that does not work fine, because it is heave takes time in processing and all plus the coding will be complex and layer adjustment and all.
is there any slide show component on which instead of image i can place UI components
What are the other options i have or what is the right way to do it. Please need help.
Sounds like are looking for a carousel feature for you component. Winforms were not intended to be animated. Fortunately some companies have worked on products that support animaiton in this area but most are moving to the Silverlight and WPF platforms for those updated features. As a reader of MSDN Magazine I often come accross some interesting advertisements of Winform components that are quite interesting. Please take a look at this link. The cost of the product is quite high.
Telerik Sample Applications using Carousel feature in Win Forms
Also check out the following link to MSDN. It explains how you can reference the silverlight component as a COM object.

In this scenerio it could also be possible to embed a flash player with a flash animation, using one of the many (commercial and free) xml-based slideshows avaible for flash. This one for example http://www.flshow.net/.
