How can I make a custom view in iOS which appears above the existing view,but smaller? It should be like UIAlertView, but taken from a .xib file. After user taps a certain button, the small view vanishes and the normal view appears.
If this is posiible, how can I do it? And.. if it’s not hard for you, please, include code.
Thanks in advance!
I think what you’re looking for is a modal view. Modal views make it easy to have a view take over the screen for a little while, then when they get dismissed have the background view resume where it left off without having to worry about who’s on top or handling events in partially-obscured views.
Here is Apple’s article describing it.
They key is to have the controller class for your view call
[self presentModalViewController:popupController animated:YES];where “popupController” is the view controller for the view you want to show up. When you’re ready to make it go away, call[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated: YES];
