Is it possible automatically grey out files that are too big when user select files using the UIDocumentPickerViewController?

Hi,

It is not possible to grey out items in a UIDocumentPickerViewController but you can use UIDocumentPickerDelegate and its didPickDocumentsAt callback to determine if you want to load file(s).

You are also welcome to file an Enhancement Request to see API explicitly added for this.
