Question

I am woundering if its possible to use the insertSubView:belowSubview: As it stands the below code is throwing this warning error

Incompatible pointer types sending 'UIImage *__strong' to parameter of type 'UIView *'

I am hoping maybe I have done something slightly wrong you guys can see as the only other way I can think of doing this would be to put the UIImageView into a UIView… please tell me there is a better way.. lol

code below.

UIImage *shadowImage = [UIImage imageNamed: @"shade.png"];
UIImageView *shadowImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:shadowImage];

[otherNav.view addSubview:shadowImageView];
[otherNav.view insertSubview:shadowImage belowSubview:animatedActionView];

any help would be greatly appreciated.

Answer 1

try this

[otherNav.view insertSubview:shadowImageView belowSubview:animatedActionView];

because the first parameter must be an View or a subclass of uiview

in your case you try to pass an UIImage who itsn’t an UIView or subclass of UIview
