I want to draw custom shape like apple shape on UIView - ios

I am trying to make Apple kind of shape for progressHUD. I have option to use .png Image but I cant because I have to fill the apple Shape with different colour depends of percentage status.. I am using UIView to draw this shape...
I want suggestion how to draw apple kind of shape easily?
And How we can fill half colour with different colour?

I have option to use .png Image but I cant
Yes, you can. — Get hold of some apple-shaped artwork. Use it as a mask - it punches a hole in a view. Now put another view behind it, with a color. Now the apple appears to be that color, because that color is being seen through the apple-shaped hole. Now put another view behind it, with a different color, and move it up or across the right amount so as to divide what's seen through the apple into two colors.
Using that approach, it took me about 30 seconds to create this result (using your apple-shaped artwork as a .png image!):

How do I set tint color only for non white parts of the UIImage?

Simple I have UIImageView icon with two people and it looks like this:
but when I set tintColor to red it looks like this:
Is there any way to avoid covering every non zero-alpha pixel? I need to show the tie really there. One time I need people red, other time green.
The icon is simple png file. Rounded circle is simple background color of UIImageView. So the part of the image with tie cannot be zero-alpha.
Is there any way to achieve such effect WITHOUT creating images for every color?
This was similar to another idea I had been playing around with, so I did a little more fiddling...
Starting with these 3 images:
and then using them as .withRenderingMode(.alwaysTemplate) to give the desired colors... and then layering them via CALayer to get:
and an "exploded" view for clarity...
Create an image where the "people" are 100% transparent - effectively "holes" in the image.
Set the background color of the UIImageView to be the "fill" color.
You can still mask it with a circle (CAShapeLayer, for example), if you don't want a white bounding-box as part of the image.
Original images:

Use the CISpotColor filter:
https://developer.apple.com/library/content/documentation/GraphicsImaging/Reference/CoreImageFilterReference/#//apple_ref/doc/filter/ci/CISpotColor
This allows you to specify a color in your image that is to be changed into another color. Thus, since you know the original color of the tie and the background, you can change either of them, or both, in a single move.

Adding border to edges of opaque area of UIImage with a filter

Hello: Currently in my project, I'm using OBShapedButton to process touches on a lot of objects that overlap (it's a map with each territory its own separate object). Basically, this library prevents a touch from being processed on a transparent point on the given view.
I'm attempting to add a border effect to just the edges of the opaque part of the UIImage (and adding a semi-transparent overlay above that). Something to the effect of this:
Which can be simplified to this (example of one image):
I am currently using MGImageUtilities to color in the opaque parts of territories using this line:
[territory setImage:[[territory image] imageTintedWithColor:tint]];
The problem is that I'm not sure how to just color the borders (which can be any shape). I've looked at this link already, but haven't been able to come up with anything.
Thanks in advance for the help!
Terribly hacky, but use MGImageUtilities' UIImage+ProportionalFill with scale resizing to create a slightly larger image, UIImage+Tint to red, and stack below.
The library you are using doesn't actually specify a shape layer. It uses alpha values from the PNGs that you give it.
Could you use a different 'highlighted' or 'selected' PNG that adds the border effect you are looking for?
Otherwise, it you will have to generate a UIBezierPath from your PNG image, which sounds like a very computationally intensive operation. At that point, I might question whether this library meets your needs.

How to paint using brush with particular area...

I want to fill each and every part with different colours like circle with other colour and each leave with different colour and stick with different colours. I have bunch of colours. You can fidn similar apps like Toonia Color book on apple app store...
I am unable to get bounds of particular part in image.
I searched a whole day before writing this question. Every one is saying just look for flood fill and Quick Fill algorithms but i am not able to solve this problem.
In Toonia Colorbook this is done using vector graphics and masks. Every shape is described as a bezier curve that masks a drawing layer.
check out CAShapeLayer and CALayer for further details

Coloring Shapes in iOS app

We are building an iPad kids application in which a kid is requested to color different shapes with specific color. For example, consider an image with sky and trees , etc. all overlapping and a kid has selected a color for example "Blue" and then he taps the sky , the sky should turn to blue otherwise it should say "wrong color"
My questions are:
1- How to implement the coloring of the sky only with the selected color. We have implemented a Coco2d Floodfilling but it is too slow.
2- How to tie each part of the image with a specific right color. We suggested loading a fully colored image in a background layer and testing it at the tap .... BUT how to implement it.
Thanks
Are the shapes originally vectorial? If so, a solution would be to work directly with them as vectors, parsing them into CoreAnimation shapes.
You can give a try to SVGKit or get some inspiration from it. You'll get CAShapeLayers where you can change the fillColor property.
I believe that this way would be much more responsive (and the app size much more lighter) than doing tricks with images ;-)

how to fill solid color into the shape of a transparent PNG file with actionscript3?

For example, I have a transparent png file, the shape is a car.
In the png file, I only draw the white border shape.
Outside and inside the border are all transparent.
I want to use actionscript3 code to show the car object with different color, it means only fill color inside the border, and for the outside of the border, keep transparent.
How to do that?
So far, the simplest workaround is to prepare many images with PhotoShop, but it's not good enough for me. When I have many shapes and use many colors, I've to prepare many many images.
Add more details:
(Because I'm using white border, you may not see the basic png file if your background of browser is white)
Change my boarder of shape to black, hope this is helpful to understand my question.
Since you're working with loaded images/pixels you can make use of BitmapData's floodFill() which pretty much does what you need. There's an example in bellow the method description as well.
It does pretty much what you need, although in some cases it might not be perfect. It's worth having a look at Jan's optimizing the floodFill() method article which goes more in depth.
A simple solution is to use multiple layers. The top layer would contain just the border. The lower layer would contain just the car with no border. You can adjust the colour of the car layer using a ColorTransform or ColorMatrixFilter.
