UIImage doesn't have a tint colour. UIImageView does. This little method returns a UIImage, tinted with a UIColor. It's useful for things like table icons, where the image view is read only. Means you don't have to create loads of PNGs in different colours.

	-(UIImage )imageWithTint:(UIImage )image andTintColor:(UIColor *)tintColor {
	UIImage *imageNew = [image imageWithRenderingMode:UIImageRenderingModeAlwaysTemplate];
	UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:imageNew];
	imageView.tintColor = tintColor;

	UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(imageView.bounds.size, NO, 0.0);
	[imageView.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
	UIImage *tintedImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
	UIGraphicsEndImageContext();

iOS: a method to add basic html tags into a UITextView. In this example there are 4 buttons, bold, italic, underline, link. In my app these buttons are in an inputAccessoryView, and they are tagged 1,2,3,4. If no text is selected, the method just inserts the tags at the cursor position, and then sets the cursor position in between the opening an…

	-(IBAction)insertHTMLTags:(id)sender {

	NSRange selectRange = [textComment selectedRange];
	NSUInteger selectLength = selectRange.length;
	NSString openingTag,closingTag;

	switch ([sender tag]) {
	case 1:
	openingTag = @"<strong>";
	closingTag = @"</strong>";
