README

Universal simple popover view to show any kind of content which is subclass of UIView. Works in both - iPhone and iPad. Easy customizable.

Installation

General

Include NGSPopoverView .h and .m files in your target. #import "NGSPopoverView.h" where needed.

FAQ

• How to change color of it from white to whatever I need?

Use tintColor property. Default value is white.

• I added UITableView inside popover, but it shows empty content. What did I do wrong?

NGSPopoverView uses AutoLayout to calculate it's size. Add height (required) and width (optional) constraints to UITableView as it doesn't have intrinsicContentSize property set up.

Samples

Rounded corners

- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(UIButton *)sender {
    UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
    label.text = @"Some text\nAnd some more";
    label.numberOfLines = 0;
    
    NGSPopoverView *popover = [[NGSPopoverView alloc] initWithCornerRadius:10.f
                                                                 direction:NGSPopoverArrowPositionAutomatic
                                                                 arrowSize:CGSizeMake(20, 10)];
    popover.contentView = label;
    
    [popover showFromView:sender animated:YES];
}

Fill screen

- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(UIButton *)sender {
    UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
    label.text = @"Some text\nAnd some more";
    label.numberOfLines = 0;
    
    NGSPopoverView *popover = [[NGSPopoverView alloc] initWithCornerRadius:0.f
                                                                 direction:NGSPopoverArrowPositionAutomatic
                                                                 arrowSize:CGSizeMake(20, 10)];
    popover.contentView = label;
    popover.fillScreen = YES;
    
    [popover showFromView:sender animated:YES];
}

Mask source view with transparency

- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(UIButton *)sender {
    UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] init];
    label.text = @"Some text\nAnd some more";
    label.numberOfLines = 0;
    
    NGSPopoverView *popover = [[NGSPopoverView alloc] initWithCornerRadius:10.f
                                                                 direction:NGSPopoverArrowPositionAutomatic
                                                                 arrowSize:CGSizeMake(20, 10)];
    popover.contentView = label;
    popover.shouldMaskSourceViewToVisible = YES;
    popover.maskedSourceViewCornerRadius = sender.frame.size.width/2.f;
    
    [popover showFromView:sender animated:YES];
}
