Popoverview is not centred on iPad rotation - ios

Question

In following code popover on iPad is not centred for second alert (cities) when iPad is rotated. It works fine for first alert (countries) though. I've printed the values and it's same for both alerts. It seems that despite having correct value for coordinates it doesn't present it in centre on device rotation for second alert.
Why it doesn't show in centre for second alert? How to fix it?
class MyVC: UIViewController {
var popoverController:UIPopoverPresentationController?
override func viewWillTransition(to size: CGSize, with coordinator: UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator) {
super.viewWillTransition(to: size, with: coordinator)
self.tableView.reloadData()
if self.popoverController != nil {
popoverController?.sourceView = self.view
print("viewWillTransition():width: x: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5), y: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5)")
popoverController?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5, y: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5, width: 0, height: 0)
popoverController?.permittedArrowDirections = []
}
}
#IBAction func countryButtonClicked(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
displayCountries()
}
func displayCountries() {
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "", message: "", preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
let paragraphStyle = NSMutableParagraphStyle()
paragraphStyle.alignment = .center
let titleAttributedText = NSMutableAttributedString(
string: "Select Country",
attributes: [
NSAttributedString.Key.paragraphStyle: paragraphStyle
]
)
alert.setValue(titleAttributedText, forKey: "attributedMessage")
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: UIAlertAction.Style.cancel, handler: countryHandler))
for list in Countries {
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: list, style: .default, handler: countryHandler))
}
// For iPad
if let poController = alert.popoverPresentationController {
popoverController = poController
popoverController?.sourceView = self.view
print("displayCountries():width: x: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5), y: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5)")
popoverController?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5, y: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5, width: 0, height: 0)
popoverController?.permittedArrowDirections = []
}
alert.view.addSubview(UIView())
present(alert, animated: false, completion: nil)
}
#IBAction func cityButtonClicked(_ sender: Any) {
showCities()
}
func showCities(){
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "Select City", message: nil, preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
for listItem in Cities {
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: listItem.title, style: .default, handler: cityHandler))
}
alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: UIAlertAction.Style.cancel, handler: cityHandler))
if let popoverController = alert.popoverPresentationController {
popoverController.sourceView = self.view
print("showCities():width: x: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5), y: \(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5)")
popoverController.sourceRect = CGRect(x: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width*0.5, y: UIScreen.main.bounds.size.height*0.5, width: 0, height: 0)
popoverController.permittedArrowDirections = []
}
alert.view.addSubview(UIView())
present(alert, animated: false, completion: nil)
}
}

popoverController must be also assigned in second alert:
if let popoverController = alert.popoverPresentationController {
self.popoverController = popoverController
...
