As a suggestion:
In Interface Builder doubleclick your popupbutton and delete all three
entries (the items marked 'Item 1', 'Item 2' and 'Item 3'). Save.
In your object have a section like this:
-(void)awakeFromNib
{
[currencyButton addItemWithTitle:@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
"Dollars to UK Pounds"];
[currencyButton addItemWithTitle:@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
"Dollars to Euros"];
[currencyButton addItemWithTitle:@[EMAIL PROTECTED]
"Dollars to Credits"];
}
where 'currencyButton' is an IBOutlet pointing at your popupButton.
Then, assuming your popupButton is also pointing at an IBAction you can
read the selected option like this:
-(IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender
{
int convertOption = [sender indexOfSelectedItem];
....
}
convertOption will be 0 for the first item, 1 for the second etc.
