UIBezierPath Animation in UIView - ios

I'm trying to make a animation that is done in Skype iOS application. The animation can be seen in this link Animation Section 3:Add a Contact
I tried with UIBezierPath but I can't do it. Any ideas?
Thanks!

Your animation block does not contain any animations. You should move your setup outside of the animation block and then animate within it.
[self setupAnimation];
[UIView animateWithDuration:1.0 delay:0.45 options:(UIViewAnimationOptions) UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut animations:^{
// animate something
} completion:nil];
In addition to this, your intended animation does not have a linear progression, meaning that you'l want to use animateKeyframesWithDuration instead.
[UIView animateKeyframesWithDuration:1.0 delay:0.45 options:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseInOut animations:^{
for (NSInteger i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
[UIView addKeyframeWithRelativeStartTime:i/10.0
relativeDuration:1.0/10.0
animations:^{
self.shapeLayer = [self pathAtInterval:i/10.0];
}];
}
} completion:nil];

1, add the path you created to CAShaperLayer object;
2, see the "strokeStart" and "strokeEnd" properties in CAShapeLayer class;
3, add a animation which called "CABasicAnimation" to your Layer obj.

How to get original image when we zoom in and zoom out the image in ios

Hi i am beginner in ios and in my project i am adding UIImage on UIScrollview and i have added tap gesture on UIImage
When we double click on UIImage then image should be zooming full screen size on view controller
After the full screen size image we can zoom it like any way what we want(i mean using like pinch zoom effect)here my requirement is when we double click on image then image need to set it's original position i have tried my level best but i did not get result please help me
my code is below:
#import "ViewController2.h"
#interface ViewController2 ()
{
UIScrollView * myScroll;
UITapGestureRecognizer *tap;

UITableView Layout is Broken

I'm new to iOS development, and now working on an iOS app mainly using UINavigationController and UITableViewController.
The problem I try to solve is the UITableView (Custom tableView cell) layout broken bug on the root viewController. This happens when I back from a child viewController to the root viewController.(Left: Original, Right: Wrong Layout) It looks like UITableView position is moved for some reason, but I'm not sure why.
In MainViewController.m

The code of this app is on this link.
Any ideas to solve this?
Your thoughts and help will be hugely appreciated.
the reason the view misplace is due to the _cardView.frame is CGRectZero when disappear, and I didn't find the solve yet.
you can add those to see the change.
-(void)viewWillLayoutSubviews{
[super viewWillLayoutSubviews];
NSLog(#"viewWillLayoutSubviews cardView %#",NSStringFromCGRect(self.tableCell.cardView.frame));
}
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews{
[super viewDidLayoutSubviews];
NSLog(#"viewDidLayoutSubviews cardView %#",NSStringFromCGRect(self.tableCell.cardView.frame));
}
-(void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated{
[super viewWillDisappear:animated];
NSLog(#"viewWillDisappear cardView %#",NSStringFromCGRect(self.tableCell.cardView.frame));
}
-(void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated{
[super viewDidDisappear:animated];
NSLog(#"viewDidDisappear cardView %#",NSStringFromCGRect(self.tableCell.cardView.frame));
}
I think you can learn more about life-cycle about viewController and Cell.
LifeCycle
by the way, when I watching your code, I don't know if you want to use xib or only code to programming. Like the code below, this is init from code but you try to get from xib.
just my opinion.
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
// make self from nib file
UINib *nib = [UINib nibWithNibName:#"HeaderView" bundle:nil];
self = [nib instantiateWithOwner:nil options:nil][0];
self.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0 green:169.0f/255.0f blue:244.0f/255.0f alpha:1.0f];
CGRect frame = CGRectZero;
frame.size.width = [[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.width;
frame.size.height = 200;
[self setFrame:frame];
}
return self;
}

UIViewAnimationWithDuration not respecting the duration?

Alright, I'm almost positive I'm just doing something stupid, but I'm new to this, so please excuse my incompetence. I have a nested animation block, and it changes the view controller once it's finished - one problem. It fires prematurely. I don't know if it's me incorrectly changing the view controller, or the block is incorrect. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Once again, thanks!
The viewDidLoad method is too early to set up animations. Try putting [self animate] in viewDidAppear: instead.
Also, make sure [self.view viewWithTag:i] doesn't return nil. If it returns nil, the outer animation block doesn't have anything to animate and will fire its completion block immediately.

Does this code follow standard Objective-C and MVC conventions? [closed]

I have written a basic app in Objective-C which displays a users contacts with pictures. The issue is, there is no compartmentalization and I feel I am violating certain standards.
Everything is handled through one main ViewController, which begins the work mainly after a user taps a button (through an outlet to IB).

Can anyone tell me the best way to rewrite this and what standard/conventions (probably in MVC) I am doing wrong?
You're not violating MVC at any thing. The view controller loads some contacts and displays them in the view. The model, represented by the contact, and the views have no coupling at all. That's correct from MVC's point of view.
As you said, this is a simple app. You may need to add some design to your code if the applications gets bigger and more complicated. But this design is good for such level of complexity. For example, if this class get bigger and more complex, you may separate the contacts loading part into a new class.
However, there's a very bad thing about your code. The method userAllowedForAccess contains more than 100 lines of code. Modularity must be maintained in the level of classes as well as methods and functions. Separate the code to many methods, depending on the function it performs. For example:
UIView *header = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0, 320, 55)];
header.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:34/255.0 green:34/255.0 blue:34/255.0 alpha:1];
[header.layer setShadowColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:14/255.0 green:14/255.0 blue:14/255.0 alpha:.5].CGColor];
[header.layer setShadowOpacity:0];
[header.layer setShadowRadius:3.0];
[header.layer setShadowOffset:CGSizeMake(2.0, 2.0)];
[self.view addSubview:header];
[self.view bringSubviewToFront:[self.view viewWithTag:100]];
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration: .7];
[UIView setAnimationDelay: 0];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:UIViewAnimationCurveEaseOut];
Can be extracted in a method called - (void) setupHeaderView and you can make another method to load the contacts - (NSArray *) getContacts or just - (NSArray *) contacts to match Objective-C's style for getters definition.
I would start refactoring your
- (IBAction)userAllowedForAccess
method in smaller and atomic methods. It's usually a bad idea to have one method that does basically everything.

UIView (subclass) trying to present UIImagePickerController

I have a parent view that allows you to see post in a UITableView. In its Navigation Bar I have a post button that when pressed presents a UIView subclass and shows it on the top of the screen. I have an image on that UIView that when tapped I want to present the UIImagePickerController to allow users to pick an image to post to the service. How can I do this since my subview is not a view controller it cannot present the UIImagePickerController.
Below is my subview code.
#import "PostView.h"
#implementation PostView
#synthesize attachedLabel;
#synthesize postButton;
#synthesize textView;
#synthesize characterLimit;
#synthesize attachImage;
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
originalFrame = frame;
NSArray *xib = [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:#"PostView" owner:self options:nil];
PostView *view = [xib objectAtIndex:0];
[view setBackgroundColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[view setAlpha:0.7f];
attachedLabel = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(204, 212, 56, 21)];
attachedLabel.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
[attachedLabel setText:#"Attached"];
attachedLabel.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
attachedLabel.font = [UIFont fontWithName:text_font_name size:12.0];
characterLimit = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(246, 13, 50, 21)];
[characterLimit setTextAlignment:NSTextAlignmentRight];
characterLimit.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
characterLimit.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
characterLimit.font = [UIFont fontWithName:text_font_name size:12.0];
attachImage = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(270, 208, 30, 30)];
[attachImage setImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"attachphoto30x30.png"]];
[self.textView setDelegate:self];
[self.textView setAlpha:0.7f];
[self.textView setTextColor:[UIColor whiteColor]];
[self.textView setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
self.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0f;

Yes, you can not present a viewcontroller from a UIView subclass.
To solve this problem, you can use your subview's superview's viewcontroller class. calling [self.superview nextResponder] in your subview will return you the superview's viewcontroller. Using that you can present your UIImagePicker view controller. To use the presentViewController method, you should cast [self.superview nextResponder] to your parentviewcontroller's class type. Also make sure you import parentview controller.h inside subview.m file
[(YourParentViewController *)[self.superview nextResponder] presentViewController:controller animated:YES completion:nil];
You should present a UIViewController subclass rather than a UIView subclass.
I would also say that UIViewController should be responsible for handling data and operational logic for its views. Check out some of the docs:
