issue with XLPagerTabStrip while implementing in my app - ios

i am creating using Swift in my app i am implementing XLPagerTabStrip and i have referred below blog to implement here is the link
This is the reference link
all thing works perfect although when i navigate to my Home screen then XLPagerTabStrip showing over status bar here is the screenshot what type of output i am getting
This is the screen shot of output which i am getting
This is expected output i want something like this
This is storyboard screenshot
here is my Controller code
import UIKit
import XLPagerTabStrip
class HomeViewController: ButtonBarPagerTabStripViewController {
//MARK: - VARIABLEs
//MARK: - OUTLETs

override func viewDidLoad() {
configureButtonBar()
super.viewDidLoad()

func configureButtonBar() {
settings.style.buttonBarBackgroundColor = .white

let child2 = UIStoryboard.init(name: "Functional", bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "ArticlesViewController") as! ArticlesViewController
return [child1, child2]
}
}
i did everything same as provided in demo app but still XLPagerTabStrip covers status bar and view which contain notification and menu icon i can't get it why this is happing i did everything as in demo can anyone have idea about this

Is there a way to change all of my IOS App page's Bg Color by using User Defaults?

I am following this tutorial provided on Youtube for: How to Save Data with UserDefaults - Swift
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUhq1vIrRbo
And I have this code that works for one page only and would like to know how to do the same exact thing (changing background color) but for my entire app pages based on the user's choice.
I have tried keeping the checkForStylePreference() in the viewDidLoad()of another page but it did not recognize it. I copy pasted the whole checkForStylePreference() but still other pieces of code were missing. Is the only way to do it is by copy pasting all of the methods of the viewController in all App pages? Or there is a much simpler way as a believe to reduce amount of code? Currently I can change BgColor from white to grey perfectly enter image description here but I don't know how to apply it for all.
This is the code of my NameViewController.swift (the one I've created for the page in the screenshot). Please note that I have 2 more swift files which are SAButton.swift and ConstantStyles.swift (for the colors)
class NameViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
nameLbl.text = myString
checkForStylePreference()
}
#IBAction func didChangeStyleSeg(_ sender: UISegmentedControl) {
isDarkMode = sender.selectedSegmentIndex == 1
saveStylePreference()
updateStyle()
}
var myString = String()
#IBOutlet weak var styleSegment: UISegmentedControl!
#IBOutlet weak var nameLbl: UILabel!
var isDarkMode = false
let defaults = UserDefaults.standard
struct Keys {
static let preferDarkMode = "preferDarkMode"
}
func updateStyle(){
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.4){
// self.view.backgroundColor = self.isDarkMode ? Colors.darkGrey : .white
// UIColor(hue: 287/360, saturation: 15/100, brightness: 85/100, alpha: 1.0)
self.view.backgroundColor = self.isDarkMode ? Colors.lightGrey : .white
//recent correct one
// self.view.backgroundColor = self.isDarkMode ? Colors.darkGrey : .white
//self.view.UIBackgroundFetchResult = self.isDarkMode? UIColor.grey : .white
}
}
func saveStylePreference(){
defaults.set(isDarkMode, forKey: Keys.preferDarkMode)
}
func checkForStylePreference(){
let preferDarkMode = defaults.bool(forKey: Keys.preferDarkMode)
if preferDarkMode{
isDarkMode = true
updateStyle()
styleSegment.selectedSegmentIndex = 1
}
}
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
Code of the SAButton.swift
class SAButton: UIButton {
override init(frame: CGRect) {
super.init(frame: frame)
setupButton()
}
required init?(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
super.init(coder: aDecoder)
setupButton()
}
private func setupButton() {
setTitleColor(.white, for: .normal)
backgroundColor = Colors.lightBlue
titleLabel?.font = .boldSystemFont(ofSize: 20)
layer.cornerRadius = frame.size.height / 2
}
}
Code of the ConstantStyles.swift
import UIKit
struct Colors {
static let darkGrey = UIColor(red: 40/255, green: 40/255, blue: 40/255, alpha: 1)
// static let purple = UIColor(red: 212/255, green: 186/255, blue: 86/255, alpha: 1)
static let lightBlue = UIColor(red: 89/255, green: 205/255, blue: 242/255, alpha: 1)
static let darkPurple = UIColor(red: 242/255, green: 232/255, blue: 255/255, alpha: 1.0)
// UIColor(hue: 287/360, saturation: 15/100, brightness: 85/100, alpha: 1.0)
static let lightPurple = UIColor(red: 240/255, green: 229/255, blue: 255/255, alpha: 1.0)
static let lightGrey = UIColor(red: 237/255, green: 237/255, blue: 237/255, alpha: 1.0)
//UIColor(red: 249/255, green: 244/255, blue: 255/255, alpha: 1.0)
}
I believe it could be simple but I am new to Swift, I would like to know what part of code to keep exactly and where. Much appreciated.
Ps: Original project Source Code is provided below the Youtube Video.
You can create a main class and inherit from it
class GeneralVC : UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
self.view.backgroundColor = .red // read color from userdefaults and set it here
}
}
class ViewController: GeneralVC {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
}
Same applies to any UIKit component that you need to affect globally
Another interesting way to do it is to use Appearance:
Perhaps you can use UIViewControllerWrapperView as a parent.
UIView.appearance(whenContainedInInstancesOf: [UIViewControllerWrapperView]) // UIViewControllerWrapperView might be private. In that case it might take some wizardry to get it to work
Another way to do it is to set it when the UITabBarController or UINavigationController presents a new UIViewController. You can do this by subclassing them.
The reason why I don't like subclassing is that you force a subclass for just one simple thing. If you only do it in a few navigation based ones it's much easier and also easier to override with extensions instead of everything through subclassing.

I am having an issue with PageMenu

I am having that issue when I using PageMenu Framework and put all code for the PageMenu but its showing white space in my controller. Anybody have the solutions for that type of issue.let me know how can I remove it.
Blow I put complete code for PageMenu
import UIKit
import PageMenu
class TradingHistoryVC: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var pagerView: UIView!
var controllerArray : [UIViewController] = []
var pageMenu : CAPSPageMenu?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
navigationController?.navigationBar.topItem?.title = ""
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
pager()
}
func pager()
{
let buy = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "TradingSuccessfullyVCSID") as! TradingSuccessfullyVC
buy.parentNavigationController = navigationController!
buy.title = "Trading Successfully"
controllerArray.append(buy)
let sell = storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "GlobalTradingVCSID") as! GlobalTradingVC
sell.parentNavigationController = navigationController!
sell.title = "Global Trading"
controllerArray.append(sell)
// Customize menu (Optional)
let parameters: [CAPSPageMenuOption] = [
.scrollMenuBackgroundColor(UIColor(red: 72/255.0, green: 175/255.0, blue: 230/255.0, alpha: 1.0)),
.viewBackgroundColor(UIColor(red: 255.0/255.0, green: 255.0/255.0, blue: 255.0/255.0, alpha: 1.0)),
.selectionIndicatorColor(UIColor(red: 255/255, green: 255/255, blue: 255/255, alpha: 1.0)),
.addBottomMenuHairline(false),
.menuItemFont(UIFont(name: "Times New Roman", size: 16)!),
.menuItemWidth((self.pagerView.frame.width-30)/2),
.menuHeight(50.0),
.enableHorizontalBounce(true),
.menuItemWidthBasedOnTitleTextWidth(false),
.selectedMenuItemLabelColor(UIColor.white),
.unselectedMenuItemLabelColor(UIColor.white),
.menuItemSeparatorWidth(4.5),
.useMenuLikeSegmentedControl(false),
.menuItemSeparatorRoundEdges(true),
.selectionIndicatorHeight(2.0),
.menuItemSeparatorPercentageHeight(0.0),
]
// Initialize scroll menu
pageMenu = CAPSPageMenu(viewControllers: controllerArray, frame: CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: self.pagerView.frame.width, height: self.pagerView.frame.height), pageMenuOptions: parameters)
self.pagerView.addSubview(pageMenu!.view)
// End Pagemenu
}
#IBAction func btnMenuAction(_ sender: Any) {
toggleSideMenuView()
}
}
If anyone have its solutions plz. Please Help to solve it.

How to commit changes of navigator bar translucency properly?

I have faced with such problem.
I have two VC. One of it has basic navigator bar, which inherits from main Navigator bar.
In this nav bar I use such settings to customise my nav nar
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewWillAppear(animated)
navigationBar.createGradientNavigatorBar()
navigationBar.isTranslucent = false
navigationBar.barTintColor = UIColor.init(red: 0/255, green: 97/255, blue: 185/255, alpha: 1)
navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
}
On the second VC I have to set custom gradient background which connected with view. For this purpose I have extended my view up to bar height and make par transculent. Here is code:
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
isCurrentViewControllerAppropriate.shared.isCurrentVcAppropriate = isCurrentViewController()
let firstColor = UIColor.init(red: 0/255, green: 94/255, blue: 198/255, alpha: 1)
let secondColor = UIColor.init(red: 27/255, green: 145/255, blue: 226/255, alpha: 1)
profileBackgroundView.createGradient(firstColor: firstColor.cgColor, secondColor: secondColor.cgColor)
navigationController?.navigationBar.setBackgroundImage(UIImage(), for: .default)
navigationController?.navigationBar.shadowImage = UIImage()
navigationController?.navigationBar.backgroundColor = UIColor.clear
navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = true
}
override func viewWillDisappear(_ animated: Bool) {
navigationController?.navigationBar.isTranslucent = false
}
Everything is working fine, but I have rough transition between vc. I've attached.
As you may notice when I return to my first VC is loading it have an artefact with navigator bar color from second VC, which resolves after a certain period of time. I have no idea how to deal with it
I'm not sure whether my approach is the right one, so I'll be glad to hear any advices consider solving this issue.

Run a function located in one UIViewController from a different controller

I currently have two UIViewControllers, a Calculation UIViewController, and a Settings UIViewController. I'm attempting to make a dark and light theme. In the Calculation VC, I have a theme function:
func setCandyTheme() {
print("Theme enabled!")
configureGradientBackground(UIColor(red: 0.14, green: 0.85, blue: 1.0, alpha: 0.8).CGColor, UIColor(red: 0.24, green: 0.65, blue: 1.0, alpha: 0.8).CGColor)
for view: UIView in containerViews {
view.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 1, green: 1, blue: 1, alpha: 0.18)
}
for textField: UITextField in textFields {
textField.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 1.0, green: 1.0, blue: 1.0, alpha: 0.20)
}
for textField: UITextField in weightTextFields {
textField.backgroundColor = UIColor(red: 1.0, green: 1.0, blue: 1.0, alpha: 0.25)
}
}
In the Settings VC, I made a toggle for enabling the theme. When it's enabled, it sets the themeKey value (which works) and runs the setCandyTheme function.
func switchIsChanged(themeToggle: UISwitch) {
let storyBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
let calcViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("Calculate") as! ViewController
if themeToggle.on {
defaults.setValue("True", forKey: themeKey.key)
calcViewController.setCandyTheme()
}
else {
defaults.setValue("False", forKey: themeKey.key)
}
}
Unfortunately, the theme isn't applied but the "Theme enabled!" string is printed in the console. I assume it's running the function in the Settings VC rather than Calculation, which is why it's not being applied.
What's the solution for this? I've been at it for hours and any help would be much appreciated!
When you do the following, you are creating a new instance of that ViewController. Therefore, you are running your code on that other instance, not the one that is attached to the screen. Therefore, you are not changing what you think you are changing.
let calcViewController = storyBoard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("Calculate") as! ViewController
You can have ViewControllers call functions in other ViewControllers but you have to give it the ViewController to call, you cannot instantiate a new one.
You could just store the current theme in your AppDelegate or someplace like that. Then, when the calculator viewWillAppear fires, adjust the theme as needed.
I ended up finding a solution! The calculation view controller was not being refreshed after a self.dismissViewControllerAnimated(false, completion: nil), so what I ended up doing was create an Unwind Segue and set the theme in the function.
#IBAction func unwindToCalculation(segue: UIStoryboardSegue) {
if themeOn == defaults.stringForKey(themeKey.key) {
self.setCandyTheme()
}
}

PushViewController & set navigation bar color and title

I made a push function in a button:
#IBAction func prodButton(sender: AnyObject) {
let storyboard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
var secondViewController = CollectionViewController()
secondViewController = storyboard.instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier("CollectionViewController") as! CollectionViewController
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(secondViewController, animated: true)
}
This button pushes to the secondViewController but when I looked at the navigation bar of the second view controller I noticed that it has set up a back button automatically. The problem is that this back button's color is light blue and it doesn't fit with my design. I tried to change it like that in viewDidAppear
self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem?.tintColor = UIColor.redColor()
and also the bar color:
self.navigationController?.navigationBar.barTintColor = UIColor(red: 65, green: 61, blue: 116, alpha: 1.0)
but there wasn't any change.
I'd be really thankful if somebody help me with that.
Thanks in advance.
Try to set your color one time, it will be the same color for everywhere after:
let navBar = UINavigationBar.appearance()
navBar.tintColor = UIColor.redColor()
You should put this code in AppDelegate. You could also set the barTint in Storyboard if you use it.
Use
//Func Alter color navigation bar
func AlteraCorNavigationBar(Navigation:UINavigationController){
Navigation.navigationBar.tintColor = CorTextoNavigationBar()
//Navigation.navigationBar.barTintColor = CorPredominante()
Navigation.navigationBar.titleTextAttributes = [NSForegroundColorAttributeName : CorTextoNavigationBar(), NSFontAttributeName : UIFont(name: "ArialHebrew-Light", size: 22)!]
}
//func CorPredominante()->UIColor{
//return UIColor.redColor()
//(rgba: "#ecf0f1")
// YOU CAN LIBRARY COLOR RGBA [HERE][1] AND USE UIColor(rgba: "#b6011a")
//}
func CorTextoNavigationBar()->UIColor{
return UIColor(red: 65, green: 61, blue: 116, alpha: 1.0)
}
for called in view controller:
class NewViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
AlteraCorNavigationBar(navigationController)
}
}
I found the mistake.
The colors shoud be devided by 255:
UINavigationBar.appearance().tintColor = UIColor(red: 149.0 / 255.0, green: 148.0 / 255.0, blue: 192.0 / 255.0, alpha: 0.5)
UINavigationBar.appearance().barTintColor = UIColor(red: 65.0 / 255.0, green: 61.0 / 255.0, blue: 116.0 / 255.0, alpha: 1.0)
Thank you all for the help ;)
