How do i make View Controllers's Animation as like in Inshorts App but in horizontal direction - ios

I'm working on an ios(Swift) project. In this project i want to read stories by fetching from a particular api.
But the problem is that i want only one story on my View and when i swipe right the another view with another story come from left with the effect that it is overlapping the story which is on the present view and so on until the story persist on the api.
And again when i swipe left, the most recent view(which was most recently get overlapped) with their respective story will come from right and give the effect like, it is overlapping the view which is present view at now.
And vice versa mentioned in above two points.
How can i achieve this in ios i don't. If anyone knows how to do it, please help me. I'm waiting for answers
NOTE: I don't want the pushing effect like in horizontal ScrollView. I only want the overlapping effect.

You should use 'UIPageViewController' and adjust 'transitionStyle' what you want.

Multiple Partial Views in 1 View Controller Swift

I would like to know how can I achieve this in Xcode? I've been searching for days and I can't find any tutorials on how to implement it.
When I click balance, another view (1/3 of the whole view) is coming from left side and replaces the current view and vice versa but the bottom part of the page doesn't change.
Thanks in advance!

How To Create Animated Onboarding on iOS

I'm creating an app that will have a quick onboarding at the beginning with some pretty simple scroll through animations and finish with a button to basically "GO" into the app's content.
I'm looking for suggestions as for how to most effectively and efficiently develop this, here's some things that it needs:
there should be paging so that it locks onto about 4 different positions throughout the onboarding.
the animations progress should be dependent on the scroll view's position (I'm guessing the x value of the content offset)
there needs to be views that stay on screen through multiple pages and some that move on screen and off screen throughout the onboard, it can not just be one picture moving on then off
there needs to be a button that pops up on the last page
I have a good understanding of Scroll Views, Page Views, and Page Controls. I also just bought Core Animator (the app) if anyone can suggest how implement that.
The way that I'm thinking of doing it is basically creating a Scroll View with paging that is empty and just use it to control animations with its content offset. Is there a faster way to do this or maybe a open source library that would work better? I'm only proficient in Swift currently :?
Thanks for any suggestions! This my first app and I'm very excited to hear your suggestions
I would look at UIPageViewController as its setup to do the scrolling by page for you, although you have control over what kind of animation it uses. You are responsible for feeding it view controllers to display using this method:
setViewControllers(_:direction:animated:completion:)
here is the link to the apple documentation UIPageViewController docs
I created a scrolling credits screen for one of my company's apps, FaceDancer, that would be a decent starting point for what you are after. The app is free. You can download it to check it out at this link: FaceDancer. The credits screen is off the info button on the main screen.
It's not hard to use UIView animations to simply animate a series of views. I think that might be easier than working with a scroll view.
I can give you some guidance if you think it would be helpful.

iOS: Switching between button overlays on top of Google Maps

this is my first time working with XCode, and so I am having a lot of issues trying to figure out how to do certain things, mainly UI related.
Currently I am having three issues:
I have two buttons, and I want them both to be half the width of the screen, but I just can't get it to work (I want to show a picture, but I am also new to stackoverflow, and I don't have enough reputation).
I want the buttons to be on top of a Google Map, and as of now, the buttons aren't visible when I run the application (I'm thinking the map is on top of them, maybe).
When I click one of the buttons, I want a different set of buttons to replace the former ones. e.g. Click a button to "Start Game", and then a new set of buttons "Easy", "Normal", and "Hard" show up.
I hope you can understand what I mean. Any help is appreciated. Thank you!
for first question answer is use UIsegmented Control. check out this link
Uisegemnted control tutorial
2) put your mapview below the segmented control and adjust the size of it.
3) for third answer there are many option. you can use alert view or make a custom view and put three buttons on it and then hide the view. on the click of start game just unhidden the view.

How to create UIView like IMDB app

I'm trying to recreate a view.
I've seen in the IMDB app and have no idea how to do the same thing.
I'm fairly new at app building, so any advice would help.
In the IMDB app when you select pics of an actor, you get a grid view of photos.
If you tap one, it goes full screen.
If you tap full screen pic, 2 semi-transparent bars appear at top and bottom overlapping photo.
These bars contain buttons and text.
How would I recreate this in my own app? Is it a special view? Modal views I know appear from bottom and fill whole screen.
Can anyone help me?
This question is far too vague, you need to attempt this and post more specific questions as you run into problems, but here's some high-level insight to get you started: (Mind you, I haven't seen the IMDB app)
A grid view of photos could be done with a UITableView or a UICollectionView (either in a full size view controller, or placed into a UIPopoverController for iPad), and when someone taps on one you could launch a new view controller that consists of simply a UIImageView filling the screen (you could do this as a full-screen modal). In any case, this view will need to have 2 views (with backgrounds set to alpha < 1.0) which will contain your buttons and text. You will set those views to hidden until the user taps on the full screen image (which you can use a UITapGestureRecognizer for).
Take a whack at it yourself, and when you run into specific issues, post them here and the fine knowledgable people here at SO will be glad to help you.
You can show a modal view without having them come up from the bottom. pushViewController:animated:(if you're using a UINavigationController),presentModalViewController:animated:,presentViewController: animated:completion: all have a BOOL option to turn animated on or off. They probably just turned the animation off.

What iOS Control can overlay the detail like Toucharcade app

I have been searching for a UI Control and don't know what its called, which makes it tough to find right? What UI Control in iOS 5 or 6 provides a view overlay that can swipe away? Kind of the opposite of a slide-out nav view. I am looking at the TouchArcade app as an example, where you tap an item and this slides out an overlay with an article or review. Its also possible to have several overlay's that can swipe to the right for removal. Is this a custom control? I know this must be an easy question, I just don't know what its called, and therefore, my terms don't help much in Google. The closest thing I have found is ShinobiControls Overlays: http://www.shinobicontrols.com/shinobiessentials/
I'd rather just make my own than rely an somebody else's library I have to keep up to date. On the other hand, that one does look pretty good and would save me time.
Edit:
Picture of TouchArcade as an example overlay view.
You see how the article is presented over the list view below? What controls do that in iOS? It also allows multiple overlays as you click further into each item. You dismiss them by swiping them to the right, dragging them out of view.
