Question

I want to shake the UIAlertView if a user presses the submit button without entering any data in the textFields. Is it possible in iOS?

Answer 1

Firstly add inside header file add

int direction;
int shakes;

For preventing UIAlertView from dismissing. refer keep-uialertview-displayed link. also refer prevent-alertview-dismissal link.

Use UIAlertView Delegate:

- (void) alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
  if (buttonIndex == 0)
    //do here something
  else if (buttonIndex == 1){
    if(txtField.text.length == 0 || txtField1.text.length == 0) //check your two textflied has value
    {
      direction = 1;
      shakes = 0;
    }
  }
}

Add this method:

-(void)shake:(UIAlertView *)theOneYouWannaShake
{
  [UIView animateWithDuration:0.03 animations:^
                                  {
                                    theOneYouWannaShake.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(5*direction, 0);
                                  } 
                                  completion:^(BOOL finished) 
                                  {
                                    if(shakes >= 10)
                                    {
                                      theOneYouWannaShake.transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
                                      return;
                                    }
                                    shakes++;
                                    direction = direction * -1;
                                    [self shake:theOneYouWannaShake];
                                  }];
}
