First of i Add the UILable
on UIImageView
and then after i screenshot the UIView
, the image not proper capture the UIView
Frame i also attach the image url.
1) Original Image Link:
2) After Capture the image Link:
Code:
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(viewImage.frame.size);
[viewImage.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *vwImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
NSData *data=UIImagePNGRepresentation(vwImage);
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
// NSString *imgName = [NSString stringWithFormat:imagename];
NSString *strPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:imagename];
[data writeToFile:strPath atomically:YES];
You can take the screenshots of any UIView
or capture any UIView
and save it as an image with below code.
- (UIImage *)captureView {
//hide controls if needed
CGRect rect = [self.view bounds];
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(rect.size);
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
[self.view.layer renderInContext:context];
UIImage *img = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
return img;
}
Take snapshot of a UIView
pass your view to this function it will handle everything itself( No need to set bounds or frames)
- (UIImage *)takeSnapshotOfView:(UIView *)view
{
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(CGSizeMake(view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height));
[view drawViewHierarchyInRect:CGRectMake(0, 0, view.frame.size.width, view.frame.size.height) afterScreenUpdates:YES];
UIImage *image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
return image;
}
Swift 3 Version:
func takeSnapshotOfView(view:UIView) -> UIImage? {
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(CGSize(width: view.frame.size.width, height: view.frame.size.height))
view.drawHierarchy(in: CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: view.frame.size.width, height: view.frame.size.height), afterScreenUpdates: true)
let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
return image
}
you can use the below code to
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(pictureView.bounds.size);
[pictureView.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *viewImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(viewImage, nil, nil, nil);
Try like this,
UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(viewImage.frame.size);
CGContextRef ctx = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
[[UIColor blackColor] set];
CGContextFillRect(ctx, viewImage.frame);
[viewImage.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()];
UIImage *vwImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
NSData *data=UIImagePNGRepresentation(vwImage);
NSArray *paths = NSSearchPathForDirectoriesInDomains(NSDocumentDirectory, NSUserDomainMask, YES);
NSString *documentsDirectory = [paths objectAtIndex:0];
// NSString *imgName = [NSString stringWithFormat:imagename];
NSString *strPath = [documentsDirectory stringByAppendingPathComponent:imagename];
[data writeToFile:strPath atomically:YES];
Try this if you want captured image maintain its original quality.
-(UIImage*)captureViewWithAllSubView:(UIView*)view{
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(view.bounds.size,
view.opaque, 0.0f);
[view drawViewHierarchyInRect:view.bounds afterScreenUpdates:YES];
UIImage *capturedImage =
UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
return capturedImage;}
