Currently the navbar will hide if the user is scrolling down. But it won't display back the navbar when user is scrolling up. how to display the navbar back when the user is scrolling up?
i am using this code to hide the navbar
self.navigationController.hidesBarsOnSwipe = YES;
The navbar will display back if the user tap twice on the top screen area, but I found it won't be so user-friendly.
Have been searching for the answers for quite a while, but can't find any
clue. What am I missing??
thanks!
I suggest you try adding scrollViewScroll as below
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
CGPoint scrollOffset = scrollView.contentOffset;
if (scrollOffset.y >= 40)
{
if (![self.navigationController isNavigationBarHidden])
{
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES animated:YES];
}
}
else
{
if ([self.navigationController isNavigationBarHidden])
{
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:YES];
}
}
}
I have used one Git lib for scroll table view/ Scroll top to bottom / bottom to top. It will automatically adjust the Navigation bar.
AMScrollingNavbar
you can use like this.
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[(ScrollingNavigationController *)self.navigationController followScrollView:self.tableView delay:40.0f];
}
I have this setup to support only landscape orientation in most of my viewcontrollers
My app delegate has this piece of code:
-(NSUInteger)application:(UIApplication *)application supportedInterfaceOrientationsForWindow:(UIWindow *)window
{
NSUInteger orientations = UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
if (self.window.rootViewController) {
UIViewController * pressented = [[((UINavigationController *)self.window.rootViewController) viewControllers] lastObject];
orientations =[pressented supportedInterfaceOrientations];
}
return orientations;
}
And in most viewcontrollers this:
-(NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskLandscape;
}
My problem comes when I push THIS controller (the one I would like to rotate):
-(NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationMaskALL;
}
It rotates perfectly BUT when I pop the viewcontroller (tap the back button of the navigation bar) with the orientation in portrait, the presenting viewcontroller also sets it's orientation to Portrait.
How can I make the presenting viewcontroller stays locked on landscape, or force the problematic controller to rotate back to landscape before popping.
Add this to your portrait view controller:
-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillDisappear:animated];
UIViewController* dummyController = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
[self presentViewController:dummyController animated:NO completion:^{
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:NO completion:nil];
}];
}
I know it's a hack, but it works. Anyone knows a better solution?
When I present a modal view controller over my view storyboard originated root view controller it flashes the story board view, even if it has been altered. My root view controller has a bright green back ground with large white subview across the top that contains a label bound to an IBOutlet. In UIViewController viewDidLoad I am adding a light gray, slightly transparent UIView that covers the entire view as a subview of the viewcontroller's view. I am also setting the label text to be different than that of the Storyboard layout.
When I trigger the modal, either via segue or via presentViewController:completion: what I see is the light gray view over my label then the view added in code seems to become transparent and animate away and the bright green of the storyboard layout shows up and then the modal view cross-dissolves in. When I dismiss the first and present the second in the completion block i see a cross-dissolve to bright green, pop of light as the added view becomes visible again, pop to bright green and the cross-dissolve in of the second view controller's view.
When I dismiss the second view controller then I see cross-dissolve out to the bright green and then the added light gray, semi-transparent view pops back to being visible.
Anyone have any idea how to stop the cross-dissolve from showing the views underneath the view added in code?
This example is made more jarring if you remove the opacity from the overlay view added in viewDidLoad.
https://github.com/jonnolen/ios-cross-disolve-problem
Code snippet and story board layout:
#interface DTViewController (){
BOOL hasShownSegue;
}
#end
#implementation DTViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
UIView * view = [UIView new];
view.frame = self.view.bounds;
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithWhite:.95 alpha:.7];
NSLog(#"View Bounds: %#", NSStringFromCGRect(self.view.bounds));
[self.view addSubview:view];
self.label.text = #"Hello!";
}
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
if (!hasShownSegue){
[self performSegueWithIdentifier:#"modal.1.segue" sender:self];
hasShownSegue = YES;
}
}
-(void)prepareForSegue:(UIStoryboardSegue *)segue sender:(id)sender{
DTCallbackViewController *vc = segue.destinationViewController;
vc.completionCallback = ^{
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:^{
DTCallbackViewController * vc = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"vc.2"];
vc.completionCallback = ^{
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
};
[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:nil];
}];
};
}
Figured it out, I don't really like it but it works:
I put all of the maskable content into a separate view:
And then hide that view when I need it to be "masked".
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
NSLog(#"View Bounds: %#", NSStringFromCGRect(self.view.bounds));
self.label.text = #"Hello!";
self.content.hidden = YES;
}
Then animations behave as expected. However, this only works with an opaque mask (which is what I needed).
I have a UIPopoverController hosting a UINavigationController, which contains a small hierarchy of view controllers.
I followed the docs and for each view controller, I set the view's popover-context size like so:
[self setContentSizeForViewInPopover:CGSizeMake(320, 500)];
(size different for each controller)
This works as expected as I navigate forward in the hierarchy-- the popover automatically animates size changes to correspond to the pushed controller.
However, when I navigate "Back" through the view stack via the navigation bar's Back button, the popover doesn't change size-- it remains as large as the deepest view reached. This seems broken to me; I'd expect the popover to respect the sizes that are set up as it pops through the view stack.
Am I missing something?
Thanks.
I was struggling with the same issue. None of the above solutions worked for me pretty nicely, that is why I decided to do a little investigation and find out how this works.
This is what I discovered:
When you set the contentSizeForViewInPopover in your view controller it won't be changed by the popover itself - even though popover size may change while navigating to different controller.
When the size of the popover will change while navigating to different controller, while going back, the size of the popover does not restore
Changing size of the popover in viewWillAppear gives very strange animation (when let's say you popController inside the popover) - I'd not recommend it
For me setting the hardcoded size inside the controller would not work at all - my controllers have to be sometimes big sometimes small - controller that will present them have the idea about the size though
A solution for all that pain is as follows:
You have to reset the size of currentSetSizeForPopover in viewDidAppear. But you have to be careful, when you will set the same size as was already set in field currentSetSizeForPopover then the popover will not change the size. For this to happen, you can firstly set the fake size (which will be different than one which was set before) followed by setting the proper size. This solution will work even if your controller is nested inside the navigation controller and popover will change its size accordingly when you will navigate back between the controllers.
You could easily create category on UIViewController with the following helper method that would do the trick with setting the size:
- (void) forcePopoverSize {
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
CGSize fakeMomentarySize = CGSizeMake(currentSetSizeForPopover.width - 1.0f, currentSetSizeForPopover.height - 1.0f);
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = fakeMomentarySize;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = currentSetSizeForPopover;
}
Then just invoke it in -viewDidAppear of desired controller.
Here's how I solved it for iOS 7 and 8:
In iOS 8, iOS is silently wrapping the view you want in the popover into the presentedViewController of the presentingViewController view controller. There's a 2014 WWDC video explaining what's new with the popovercontroller where they touch on this.
Anyways, for view controllers presented on the navigation controller stack that all want their own sizing, these view controllers need (under iOS 8) to call this code to dynamically set the preferredContentSize:
self.presentingViewController.presentedViewController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(320, heightOfTable);
Replace heightOfTable with your computed table or view height.
In order to avoid a lot of duplicate code and to create a common iOS 7 and iOS 8 solution, I created a category on UITableViewController to perform this work when viewDidAppear is called in my tableviews:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
[self setPopOverViewContentSize];
}
Category.h:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#interface UITableViewController (PreferredContentSize)
- (void) setPopOverViewContentSize;
#end
Category.m:
#import "Category.h"
#implementation UITableViewController (PreferredContentSize)
- (void) setPopOverViewContentSize
{
[self.tableView layoutIfNeeded];
int heightOfTable = [self.tableView contentSize].height;
if (heightOfTable > 600)
heightOfTable = 600;
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] < 8.0)
self.preferredContentSize=CGSizeMake(320, heightOfTable);
else
self.presentingViewController.presentedViewController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(320, heightOfTable);
}
}
#end
This is an improvement on krasnyk's answer.
Your solution is great, but it isn't smoothly animated.
A little improvement gives nice animation:
Remove last line in the - (void) forcePopoverSize method:
- (void) forcePopoverSize {
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
CGSize fakeMomentarySize = CGSizeMake(currentSetSizeForPopover.width - 1.0f, currentSetSizeForPopover.height - 1.0f);
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = fakeMomentarySize;
}
Put [self forcePopoverSize] in - (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated method:
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
[self forcePopoverSize];
}
And finally - set desired size in - (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated method:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = currentSetSizeForPopover;
}
You need to set the content size again in viewWillAppear. By calling the delagate method in which you set the size of popovercontroller. I had also the same issue. But when I added this the problem solved.
One more thing: if you are using beta versions lesser than 5. Then the popovers are more difficult to manage. They seem to be more friendly from beta version 5. It's good that final version is out. ;)
Hope this helps.
In the -(void)viewDidLoad of all the view controllers you are using in navigation controller, add:
[self setContentSizeForViewInPopover:CGSizeMake(320, 500)];
I reset the size in the viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated method of the view controller that is being navigated back from:
-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillDisappear:animated];
CGSize contentSize = [self contentSizeForViewInPopover];
contentSize.height = 0.0;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = contentSize;
}
Then when the view being navigated back to appears, I reset the size appropriately:
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
CGSize contentSize;
contentSize.width = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover.width;
contentSize.height = [[self.fetchedResultsController fetchedObjects] count] * self.tableView.rowHeight;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = contentSize;
}
For iOS 8 the following works:
- (void) forcePopoverSize {
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.preferredContentSize;
CGSize fakeMomentarySize = CGSizeMake(currentSetSizeForPopover.width - 1.0f, currentSetSizeForPopover.height - 1.0f);
self.preferredContentSize = fakeMomentarySize;
self.navigationController.preferredContentSize = fakeMomentarySize;
self.preferredContentSize = currentSetSizeForPopover;
self.navigationController.preferredContentSize = currentSetSizeForPopover;
}
BTW I think, this should be compatible with previous iOS versions...
Well i worked out. Have a look.
Made a ViewController in StoryBoard. Associated with PopOverViewController class.
import UIKit
class PopOverViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(200, 200)
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(barButtonSystemItem: .Done, target: self, action: "dismiss:")
}
func dismiss(sender: AnyObject) {
self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(true, completion: nil)
}
}
See ViewController:
//
// ViewController.swift
// iOS8-PopOver
//

import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate
{
func showPopover(base: UIView)
{
if let viewController = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("popover") as? PopOverViewController {
let navController = UINavigationController(rootViewController: viewController)
navController.modalPresentationStyle = .Popover
if let pctrl = navController.popoverPresentationController {
pctrl.delegate = self
pctrl.sourceView = base
pctrl.sourceRect = base.bounds
self.presentViewController(navController, animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
}
override func viewDidLoad(){
super.viewDidLoad()
}
#IBAction func onShow(sender: UIButton)
{
self.showPopover(sender)
}
func adaptivePresentationStyleForPresentationController(controller: UIPresentationController) -> UIModalPresentationStyle {
return .None
}
}
Note: The func showPopover(base: UIView) method should be placed before ViewDidLoad. Hope it helps !
For me this solutions works.
This is a method from my view controller which extends UITableViewController and is the root controller for UINavigationController.
-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = self.tableView.bounds.size;
}
And don't forget to set content size for view controller you gonna push into navigation stack
- (void)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView accessoryButtonTappedForRowWithIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath{
dc = [[DetailsController alloc] initWithBookmark:[[bookmarksArray objectAtIndex:indexPath.row] retain] bookmarkIsNew:NO];
dc.detailsDelegate = self;
dc.contentSizeForViewInPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:dc animated:YES];
}
if you can imagine the assambler, I think this is slightly better:
- (void) forcePopoverSize {
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(0, 0);
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = currentSetSizeForPopover;
}
The accepted answer is not working fine with iOS 8. What I did was creating my own subclass of UINavigationController for use in that popover and override the method preferredContentSize in this way:
- (CGSize)preferredContentSize {
return [[self.viewControllers lastObject] preferredContentSize];
}
Moreover, instead of calling forcePopoverSize (method implemented by #krasnyk) in viewDidAppear I decided to set a viewController (which shows popover) as a delegate for previously mentioned navigation (in popover) and do (what force method does) in:
-(void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController
didShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController
animated:(BOOL)animated
delegate method for a passed viewController. One important thing, doing forcePopoverSize in a UINavigationControllerDelegate method is fine if you do not need that animation to be smooth if so then do leave it in viewDidAppear.
I was facing same problem, but you don't want to set contentsize in viewWillAppear or viewWillDisappear method.
AirPrintController *airPrintController = [[AirPrintController alloc] initWithNibName:#"AirPrintController" bundle:nil];
airPrintController.view.frame = [self.view frame];
airPrintController.contentSizeForViewInPopover = self.contentSizeForViewInPopover;
[self.navigationController pushViewController:airPrintController animated:YES];
[airPrintController release];
set contentSizeForViewInPopover property for that controller before pushing that controller to navigationController
I've had luck by putting the following in the viewdidappear:
[self.popoverController setPopoverContentSize:self.contentSizeForViewInPopover animated:NO];
Although this may not animate nicely in the case when you're pushing/popping different-sized popovers. But in my case, works perfectly!
All that you have to do is:
-In the viewWillAppear method of the popOvers contentView, add the snippet given below. You will have to specify the popOver's size first time when it is loaded.
CGSize size = CGSizeMake(width,height);
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = size;
I had this issue with a popover controller whose popoverContentSize = CGSizeMake(320, 600) at the start, but would get larger when navigating through its ContentViewController (a UINavigationController).
The nav controller was only pushing and popping custom UITableViewControllers, so in my custom table view controller class's viewDidLoad i set self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(320, 556)
The 44 less pixels are to account for the Nav controller's nav bar, and now I don't have any issues anymore.
Put this in all view controllers you are pushing inside the popover
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = CGSizeMake(260, 390);
CGSize fakeMomentarySize = CGSizeMake(currentSetSizeForPopover.width - 1.0f,
currentSetSizeForPopover.height - 1.0f);
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = fakeMomentarySize;
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = currentSetSizeForPopover;
Faced the same issue and fixed it by setting content view size to navigation controller and view controller before the init of UIPopoverController was placed.
CGSize size = CGSizeMake(320.0, _options.count * 44.0);
[self setContentSizeForViewInPopover:size];
[self.view setFrame:CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, size.width, size.height)];
[navi setContentSizeForViewInPopover:size];
_popoverController = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:navi];
I'd just like to offer up another solution, as none of these worked for me...
I'm actually using it with this https://github.com/nicolaschengdev/WYPopoverController
When you first call your popup use this.
if ([sortTVC respondsToSelector:#selector(setPreferredContentSize:)]) {
sortTVC.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(popoverContentSortWidth,
popoverContentSortHeight);
}
else
{
sortTVC.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(popoverContentSortWidth,
popoverContentSortHeight);
}
Then in that popup use this.
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:YES];
if ([self respondsToSelector:#selector(setPreferredContentSize:)]) {
self.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(popoverContentMainWidth,
popoverContentMainheight);
}
else
{
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(popoverContentMainWidth,
popoverContentMainheight);
}
}
-(void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewDidDisappear:YES];
self.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeZero;
}
Then repeat for child views...
This is the correct way in iOS7 to do this,
Set the preferred content size in viewDidLoad in each view controller in the navigation stack (only done once). Then in viewWillAppear get a reference to the popover controller and update the contentSize there.
-(void)viewDidLoad:(BOOL)animated
{
...
self.popoverSize = CGSizeMake(420, height);
[self setPreferredContentSize:self.popoverSize];
}
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
...
UIPopoverController *popoverControllerReference = ***GET REFERENCE TO IT FROM SOMEWHERE***;
[popoverControllerReference setPopoverContentSize:self.popoverSize];
}
#krasnyk solution worked well in previous iOS versions but not working in iOS8. The following solution worked for me.
- (void) forcePopoverSize {
CGSize currentSetSizeForPopover = self.preferredContentSize;
//Yes, there are coupling. We need to access the popovercontroller. In my case, the popover controller is a weak property in the app's rootVC.
id mainVC = [MyAppDelegate appDelegate].myRootVC;
if ([mainVC valueForKey:#"_myPopoverController"]) {
UIPopoverController *popover = [mainVC valueForKey:#"_myPopoverController"];
[popover setPopoverContentSize:currentSetSizeForPopover animated:YES];
}
}
It is not the best solution, but it works.
The new UIPopoverPresentationController also has the resizing issue :( .
You need to set the preferredContentSizeproperty of the NavigationController in viewWillAppear:
-(void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
[super viewWillAppear:animated];
self.navigationController.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(320, 500);}
Is it possible to pop up an UIViewController (xib file) like UIPopOverControl in iPad ?
I have a separate NIB file which is linked to an UIViewController. I want to popup that NIB file along with the button pressed with a customised size (200,200).
Is this possible?
I am trying to get something like this on the iPhone - http://www.freeimagehosting.net/c219p
You can also use one of these custom made clases to show a popup:
https://github.com/sonsongithub/PopupView
https://github.com/werner77/WEPopover
https://github.com/50pixels/FPPopover
Example with FPPopover:
//the view controller you want to present as popover
YourViewController *controller = [[YourViewController alloc] init];
//our popover
FPPopoverController *popover = [[FPPopoverController alloc] initWithViewController:controller];
//the popover will be presented from the okButton view
[popover presentPopoverFromView:okButton];
//release if you arent using ARC
[controller release];
yes it is. load Your pOpOver controller lazily at the point when it is needed. add its view as a subview (you could animate the addition). make its frame size what You need and add the image You have shown as a background subview of the pOpOver controller along with other controls You want in the pop up.
good luck
UPDATE:
alright, ii will show You how ii do this in my app Lucid Reality Check (deployment target iOS4.3).
one can use a UIPopoverController to present another controllers view. what ii do first is to make sure ii always know the current orientation of the device, so ii can reposition the popup on rotation (maybe this works by itself on iOS6?). so in my base controller (from where ii want to show a popup) ii have an instance variable like this:
UIInterfaceOrientation toOrientation;
and also:
UIPopoverController *popover;
UIButton *popover_from_button;
BOOL representPopover;
popover will be reused for all popups, and popover_from_button will hold the button from which the popup is initiated.
then the next code comes into the base controller:
- (void)popoverWillRotate {
if ([popover isPopoverVisible]) {
[self dismissPopover];
representPopover = YES;
}
}
- (void)popoverDidRotate {
if (popover && representPopover) {
representPopover = NO;
[self representPopover];
}
}
these two methods have to be called every time the device is rotated, like this:
- (void)willRotateToInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation duration:(NSTimeInterval)duration {
//DLOG(#"willRotateTo %i", toInterfaceOrientation);
toOrientation = toInterfaceOrientation;
if ([Kriya isPad ]) {
[self popoverWillRotate];
}
}
as one can see, first the orientation is captured then popoverWillRotate is called. this would hide the popover during the orientation animation. and after rotating, the popover must be redisplayed like this:
- (void)didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)fromInterfaceOrientation {
//DLOG(#"didRotateFrom %i", fromInterfaceOrientation);
//[self layout:toOrientation]; //do some layout if You need
if ([Kriya isPad]) {
[self popoverDidRotate];
}
}
- (void)layout:(UIInterfaceOrientation)toInterfaceOrientation {
//one can do view layout here, and call other controllers to do their layout too
}
now that the orientation changes are worked out, the code for presenting the popover arrives here:
#pragma mark Popovers
- (void)presentPopoverWith:(id)controller fromButton:(UIButton*)button {
if (popover)
[popover release];
if (popover_from_button)
[popover_from_button release];
popover_from_button = [button retain];
popover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:controller];
[popover setDelegate:self];
[self representPopover];
}
- (void)representPopover{
if (popover) {
UIPopoverArrowDirection arrowDirection = UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny;
UIViewController *vc = (UIViewController*)[popover contentViewController];
CGSize contentSize = [vc contentSizeForViewInPopover];
if (contentSize.width > 0 && contentSize.height > 0) {
[popover setPopoverContentSize:contentSize animated:NO];
}
//DLOG(#"representPopover rect:%#", [Kriya printRect:popover_from_button.frame]);
[popover presentPopoverFromRect:CGRectOffset(popover_from_button.frame, 0, popover_from_button.frame.size.height + 7.0) inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:arrowDirection animated:YES];
}
}
- (void)dismissPopover {
if (popover) {
[popover dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
}
}
finally, if one wants to be notified when the popover is dismissed, the base controller must implement a delegate method:
#pragma mark UIPopoverControllerDelegate
- (void)popoverControllerDidDismissPopover:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController {
//do something important here like drink some water
}
and don't forget to make the base controller a UIPopoverControllerDelegate in its header.
a use case for this way of doing popups would then look like this:
- (void)takeImage {
UIImagePickerController *picker = [[[UIImagePickerController alloc] init] autorelease];
[picker setDelegate:self];
[picker setAllowsEditing:NO];
if ([UIImagePickerController isSourceTypeAvailable:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera]) {
[picker setSourceType:UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera];
if ([Kriya isPad]) {
[self presentPopoverWith:picker fromButton:backgroundImageButton];
} else {
//modals on iPhone/iPod
//DLOG(#"takeImage addSubview picker");
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];
}
} else {
//DLOG(#"no camera");
}
}
this would use an image picker as the content for the popup, but one can use any controller with a valid view. so just do this:
[self presentPopoverWith:popupsContentController fromButton:tappedButton];
one should not have any missing information, :), the method [Kriya isPad] is just this:
+ (BOOL)isPad {
#if __IPHONE_OS_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED >= 30200
// iPad capable OS
if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
//this is an iPad
return YES;
}else {
//this is an iPod/iPhone
return NO;
}
#else
//can not pissible be iPad
return NO;
#endif
}
ENJOY!
