Apple Store's requirement as for native look and function

[keram]

Hello,

I'd like to know what are Apple Store's policy with respect to an app that may not have 100% native look and function.
In particular I'm thinking about native scrolling by swiping up and down and keeping the scrollbar instead.
Will such an app be rejected?

Apple won't care but your users will. iOS users expect native behaviours. Why would you use a scroll bar instead?

Hi Gerry,

Why would you use a scroll bar instead?

Because native scrolling of a data grid in my stack is quite sluggish, and that's on a quad core 1.2 GHz tablet. So on older phones it may be even worse. I can easily make native scrolling in an ordinary text field - that is snappy and responsive but data grids are not easy to handle. When using the scrollbar the scrolling is more responsive.

What have you tried to make your data grids scroll faster?

Hi Gerry,

I've been looking in this forum for tips and tricks to accomplish it but could not find anything.
I found Monte's comment here http://forums.runrev.com/viewtopic.php? ... ing#p64971
but I don't know if anything has changed.

Have you got any ideas or tips?

My data grids tend towards the fairly simple - list views with a few fields and graphics in each item. I also only develop for iOS so I'm targeting reasonably fast devices. My data grids scroll smoothly when I set the acceleratedrendering of the stack to true and the compositortype to "OpenGL".

What are your data grids like?

I was not aware of this. I'll test it out and let you know.

My data grid form is basically showing 600+ lines of text that are in a text data field on the stack. Possibly the number of lines may increase over the time, but I'm sure if I would decrease it to less than 100 the scrolling would improve. In LC User Guide it says that data grids should be able to handle 2000 records, above that one should use SQL database.
