Macos Iphone Simulator

To run your app in Simulator, choose an iOS simulator—for example, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air, or iPhone 6 + Apple Watch - 38mm—from the Xcode scheme pop-up menu, and click Run. Xcode builds your project and then launches the most recent version of your app running in Simulator on your Mac screen, as shown in Figure 1-1. The first step is downloading Xcode and installing the iOS simulator on your Mac. Here’s how to install the iOS simulator on your Mac: Download and install Xcode from the Mac App Store. Right click on the Xcode icon in the Applications folder and select Show Package Contents, as shown below. Open the iPhone Simulator application. Overview Choose a Scheme. A scheme is a collection of settings that specify the targets to build, the build configuration,. Select a Simulated Device. For iOS, tvOS, and watchOS apps, you can choose a simulated device, under Platform. Select a Real Device. Before you distribute your app.

Question or issue on macOS:

In my iPhone app, I have many ASCII arts which I need to insert into the database.

I am using the simulator and pasting the textpic in the textview to insert the ASCII art to database.

Here the clipboard of simulator once pastes the art properly but when I copy another art then too it pastes the previous art into textview.

How to solve this problem? Is there a work around for this or any better approach?

How to solve this problem?

Solution no. 1:

I was getting frustrated with copy and paste in the simulator and couldn’t figure out what was going on.

Results were similar to what you describe: copy and paste would sometimes paste the same value as I had copied before, but not what I just copied to the clipboard.

Ios

I finally realized that the simulator has it’s own clipboard, separate from the main OS X clipboard.

You use the touch-based copy and paste commands to paste into your application from the simulator clipboard.

You can use the standard OS X copy paste shortcuts (Command-X,C,V) to paste from the system clipboard into the simulator clipboard.

So to copy and paste from Chrome (for example), you select the text in Chrome, Command-C to copy. Then switch to the simulator, Command-V to paste into the simulator clipboard. Then in your application, you simulate a touch in the textfield to bring up the paste option, then simulate a touch to the paste button to paste the simulator clipboard contents into the app.

The menu options do the same thing as the keyboard shortcuts–copy/paste between the system clipboard and the simulator keyboard.

Now that I figured it out, I actually like it much better than if the simulator clipboard was automatically tied to the OS X clipboard.

Solution no. 2:

From Xcode 9.0 or above:

  • Open simulator

  • Click on “Edit” from top menus

  • Enable -> “Automatically Sync Pasteboard”

  • If already enable then disable it and enable again.

  • Long press to paste your text i.e copied

Below Xcode 9.0

  1. Copy text from anywhere
  2. Paste on the simulator by command (command + v), it will show nothing
  3. Then press (command + shift + v)

it works for me

⌘ +
C – Copies the contents of the iOS clipboard to OS X. This works for both text and images.
⌘ + ⇧ + C – Copies the selected text (or whatever else responds to the copy: selector in your app) to the iOS clipboard. This one does not appear in the menu.
⌘ + ⌃ + C – Copies a screenshot of the iOS app (without the simulator’s chrome) to the OS X clipboard (Use ⌘ + S to save it to a file on the Desktop instead).
⌘ + V – Copies the contents of the OS X clipboard over to iOS, but doesn’t paste it. Again, this works for both text and images.
⌘ + ⌃ + V – Pastes the OS X clipboard in the iOS app, but leaves the clipboard unchanged. This does not work with images.

  2. Now press command + v in the particular place you want to paste the content.

  3. Now Paste in the simulator using command + shift + v

Working well. Confirmed answer.!

Solution no. 6:

Check out the text property of the UITextView. Simply load your textpic into an NSString, and set that string to be the text property of the TextView.

Solution no. 7:

You can copy the content from mac using ⌘ + ⇧ + C and paste in browser url using ⌘ + V .

It’s working for me.
