I present a small "login" UIViewController
as a UIModalPresentationFormSheet
with custom bounds. In the viewWillLayoutSubviews
method, I change the size of the view to (300,250). This has worked in iOS 5/6/7 but no longer works in 8.
When the view is presented and a UITextField
is tapped, the app becomes unresponsive (not frozen, just not responding to touches). Almost as if the keyboard is presented but not appearing. Delegate methods ARE called correctly. If I remove the self.view.superview.bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 250);
from the viewWillLayoutSubviews
method the keyboard works, but the view is now a full sized UIModalPresentationFormSheet
style.
This only happens in iOS 8, so I can only assume its an issue with the way the keyboard is presented and the way I am masking/resizing the view, but I'm at a loss as to the solution.
Presenting ViewController -
UserLoginViewController *loginVC = [[UserLoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"UserLoginViewController" bundle:nil];
loginVC.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
loginVC.delegate = self;
[self presentViewController:loginVC animated:YES completion:nil];
Editing the view bounds -
- (void)viewWillLayoutSubviews {
[super viewWillLayoutSubviews];
self.view.superview.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0;
self.view.superview.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
self.view.superview.bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 250);
}
In iOS8 You shouldn't change superview bounds in viewWillLayoutSubviews because it causes infinite loop.
EDIT:
in iOS8 property preferredContentSize works well.
You should change your code in that way:
UserLoginViewController *loginVC = [[UserLoginViewController alloc] initWithNibName:@"UserLoginViewController" bundle:nil];
loginVC.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
loginVC.delegate = self;
if(IS_IOS8)
{
loginVC.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(300, 250);
}
[self presentViewController:loginVC animated:YES completion:nil];
Editing the view bounds -
- (void)viewWillLayoutSubviews{
[super viewWillLayoutSubviews];
self.view.superview.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0;
self.view.superview.layer.masksToBounds = YES;
if(!IS_IOS8)
{
self.view.superview.bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, 300, 250);
}
}
Another way, which gives you more customization options is to use UIPresentationController and UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate. Take a look at my code below.
Parent view controller:
_aboutViewController = [[AboutViewController alloc] init];
_aboutViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
if(IS_IOS8)
{
if(aboutTransitioningDelegate == nil)
{
aboutTransitioningDelegate = [[AboutTransitioningDelegate alloc] init];
}
_aboutViewController.transitioningDelegate = aboutTransitioningDelegate;
_aboutViewController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationCustom;
}
[self presentViewController:_aboutViewController animated:YES completion:nil];
AboutViewController.m
#import "AboutViewController.h"
@interface AboutViewController ()
@end
@implementation AboutViewController
- (void)viewWillLayoutSubviews{
[super viewWillLayoutSubviews];
if(IS_IOS8)
{
return;
}
CGSize displaySize = CGSizeMake(320, 462);
self.view.superview.bounds = CGRectMake(0, 0, displaySize.width, displaySize.height);
}
@end
AboutTransitioningDelegate.h:
@interface AboutTransitioningDelegate : NSObject <UIViewControllerTransitioningDelegate>
@end
AboutTransitioningDelegate.m:
#import "AboutTransitioningDelegate.h"
#import "AboutPresentationController.h"
@implementation AboutTransitioningDelegate
-(UIPresentationController *)presentationControllerForPresentedViewController:(UIViewController *)presented presentingViewController:(UIViewController *)presenting sourceViewController:(UIViewController *)source
{
return [[AboutPresentationController alloc] initWithPresentedViewController:presented presentingViewController:presenting];
}
@end
AboutPresentationController.h
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
@interface AboutPresentationController : UIPresentationController
@end
AboutPresentationController.m
#import "AboutPresentationController.h"
@implementation AboutPresentationController
-(CGRect)frameOfPresentedViewInContainerView
{
CGSize displaySize = CGSizeMake(320, 462);
if([[Config sharedInstance] latestVersionFromAppstoreInstalled])
{
displaySize = CGSizeMake(320, 416);
}
CGRect r = CGRectZero;
r.size = displaySize;
r.origin.y = self.containerView.bounds.size.height/2 - displaySize.height/2;
r.origin.x = self.containerView.bounds.size.width/2 - displaySize.width/2;
return r;
}
-(void)containerViewWillLayoutSubviews
{
[super containerViewWillLayoutSubviews];
self.presentedView.frame = [self frameOfPresentedViewInContainerView];
}
@end
ProjectName-Prefix.pch
#define IS_IOS8 ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] >= 8)
The simplest way to call containerViewWillLayoutSubviews()
is to call:
containerView?.setNeedsLayout()
