i have a button in ViewController and i changed button position when clicked on that .
the question it is how to can move button to new position when Clicked with animation ?
this is view Controller :
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let X = 50
let Y = 100
let WIDTH = 100
let HEIGHT = 100
movable_Button.frame = CGRect(x: X, y: Y, width: WIDTH , height: HEIGHT)
}
this is change position method When clicked :
#IBAction func movable_Button_DidTouch(_ sender: Any) {
movable_Button.frame = CGRect(x: X + 150, y: Y + 150, width: 100, height: 100)
}
Let's use UIView animate block
#IBAction func movableButtonDidTouch(_ sender: Any) {
// Set initial frame here
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.35) {
// Set final frame here
}
}
Please notice to remove underline (_) in function name, it's not the convention of Swift, use camel case instead.
Update
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var positions = [CGPoint]()
let width = 100.0
let height = 50.0
var index = 0
lazy var button: UIButton = {
let theButton = UIButton(type: .system)
theButton.frame = CGRect(x: 50, y: 50, width: self.width, height: self.height)
theButton.backgroundColor = .red
return theButton
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.view.addSubview(self.button)
for index in 1...4 {
let point = CGPoint(x: 50 * index, y: 50 * index)
self.positions.append(point)
}
}
#IBAction func changeButtonPosition(_ sender: AnyObject) {
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.35) { [weak self] in
guard let self = self else { return }
self.index += 1
let point = self.positions[self.index % 4]
self.button.frame = CGRect(origin: point, size: CGSize(width: self.width, height: self.height))
}
}
}

I am subclassing UIView, and am trying to "drag" a CGRect back and forth across the screen. Basically I want to move(redraw) the rectangle every time I drag my finger. So far, I have this code:
var rectangle: CGRect {
get {
return CGRect(x: 200,
y: 200,
width: frame.width / 6,
height: 15)
}
set {}
}
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
let gesture = UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(dragRectangle(recognizer:)))
addGestureRecognizer(gesture)
drawRectangle(rect)
}
func drawRectangle(_ rect: CGRect) {
let path = UIBezierPath(rect: rectangle)
UIColor.black.set()
path.fill()
}
#objc func dragRectangle(recognizer: UIPanGestureRecognizer) {
let translation = recognizer.translation(in: self)
rectangle = CGRect(x: rectangle.midX + translation.x, y: rectangle.midY + translation.y, width: rectangle.width, height: rectangle.height)
setNeedsDisplay()
recognizer.setTranslation(CGPoint.zero, in: self)
}
This is my first time using UIPanGestureRecognizer, so I'm not sure of all the details that go into this. I have set breakpoints in drawRectangle and confirmed that this is being called. However, the rectangle on the screen does not move at all, no matter how many times I try to drag it. What's wrong?
This is how you can do it easily. just copy paste and run this.

here is the demo,
Hope this will help. cheers !
Try like this (check comments through code):
#IBDesignable
class Rectangle: UIView {
#IBInspectable var color: UIColor = .clear {
didSet { backgroundColor = color }
}
// draw your view using the background color
override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
backgroundColor?.set()
UIBezierPath(rect: rect).fill()
}
// add the gesture recognizer to your view
override func didMoveToSuperview() {
addGestureRecognizer(UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(pan)))
}
// your gesture selector
#objc func pan(_ gesture: UIPanGestureRecognizer) {
// update your view frame origin
frame.origin += gesture.translation(in: self)
// reset the gesture translation
gesture.setTranslation(.zero, in: self)
}
}
extension CGPoint {
static func +=(lhs: inout CGPoint, rhs: CGPoint) {
lhs.x += rhs.x
lhs.y += rhs.y
}
}
To draw rectangles on your view when panning you can do as follow:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var rectangles: [Rectangle] = []
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.addGestureRecognizer(UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(pan)))
}
#objc func pan(_ gesture: UIPanGestureRecognizer) {
switch gesture.state {
case .began:
let rectangle = Rectangle(frame: .init(origin: gesture.location(in: view), size: .init(width: 0, height: 0)))
rectangle.fillColor = .red
rectangle.strokeColor = .white
rectangle.lineWidth = 3
view.addSubview(rectangle)
rectangles.append(rectangle)
case .changed:
let distance = gesture.translation(in: view)
let index = rectangles.index(before: rectangles.endIndex)
let frame = rectangles[index].frame
rectangles[index].frame = .init(origin: frame.origin, size: .init(width: frame.width + distance.x, height: frame.height + distance.y))
rectangles[index].setNeedsDisplay()
gesture.setTranslation(.zero, in: view)
case .ended:
break
default:
break
}
}
}
Sample Project
I figured out most of the problem as to why the rectangle wasn't moving. It turns out that I misunderstood how variable getters and setters work in Swift. Nevertheless, I changed this code:
var rectangle: CGRect {
get {
return CGRect(x: 200,
y: 200,
width: frame.width / 6,
height: 15)
}
set {}
}
to be a lazy variable:
lazy var rectangle: CGRect = {
return CGRect(x: 200,
y: 200,
width: self.frame.width / 6,
height: 15)
}()
The reason I needed get and set in the first place was because I use frame in my variable calculations, and that was not available until the view itself was fully instantiated. I also tweaked this code a bit:
rectangle = CGRect(x: rectangle.midX + translation.x, y: rectangle.midY + translation.y, width: rectangle.width, height: rectangle.height)
and used minX instead of midX:
rectangle = CGRect(x: rectangle.minX + translation.x, y: rectangle.minY + translation.y, width: rectangle.width, height: rectangle.height)
This is because CGRect is initialized with the x and y parameters being the minX and minY.
This is good progress(at least the rectangle moves). However, I am not able to figure out why the rectangle only switches places after I have released my mouse, resulting in choppy movement.
This problem has been answered several times before on this site, I have tried them all and none work. The difference I think is that I have a UITableView inside my UIViewController. I have tried when loading the data within viewDidLoad, here the screen I am coming from show until all is complete and my new view appears. I have also tried within viewDidAppear, here I have a blank table showing before the final view comes up.
I have tried 4 methods all from this site, I call pauseApp(n) before I start the load and restartApp(n) when completed
var spinner:UIActivityIndicatorView = UIActivityIndicatorView()
var loadingView = UIView()
var loadingLabel = UILabel()

Verify your Interface Builder file, specifically the order in which the components are defined. Components higher up in the hierarchy may be hidden by those defined below them. Thus it's quite possible that your tableview hides your activity view.
You should be able to confirm this fairly quickly by hiding the table view and other other views that may be on top. Depending on your activity view settings, you may also need to do tvTable.activityIndicatorView.isHidden = false. Note that since UITableView implement a built-in scrollview, adding an activity view as a child to a UITableView may not be the the best course. You are better off defining it as a child of the tableView's superview; ref:
Your attempt with pauseApp1 could work with minor modifications, but only if your view controller is hosted inside a navigation controller. You should also always define any relationship only AFTER the view is added as a subview not before.
Starting a brand new project from scratch, here's how you can display an activity indicator by code:
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
// We add some delay for fun, absolutely not required!
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + 2.0) {
self.showSpinner()
}
}
private func showSpinner() {
let spinner = UIActivityIndicatorView.init(style: .gray)
self.view.addSubview(spinner)
spinner.center = self.view.center
spinner.startAnimating()
spinner.isHidden = false
spinner.hidesWhenStopped = true
}
}
Thanks Again,
The solution is to add an activityIndeicatorView with Storyboard below our TableView
Then in viewDidAppear have
#IBOutlet weak var mySpinner: UIActivityIndicatorView!
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
self.pauseApp()
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now()) {
self.doScreen()
}
}
func pauseApp() {
showSpinner()
UIApplication.shared.beginIgnoringInteractionEvents()
}
func restartApp() {
mySpinner.stopAnimating()
UIApplication.shared.endIgnoringInteractionEvents()
}
private func showSpinner() {
mySpinner.startAnimating()
mySpinner.isHidden = false
mySpinner.hidesWhenStopped = true
}
The pauseApp call put the spinner on the screen, the doScreen does all the work and calls restartApp when it has finished. My doScreen does quite a lot of work going to a service to get the data, it takes about 2 seconds with a good internet connection, but much longer when the connection is poor.
I wanted to implement a loading overlay whilst I have content loading in from an API call however when I go to dismiss the view; I have no success.
func viewLoading(show:Bool, boxView: UIView, error: Bool, errorMessage: String){
let myNewView=UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: boxView.frame.width, height: boxView.frame.height))
if show{
// Change UIView background colour
myNewView.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.withAlphaComponent(0.75)
myNewView.isOpaque = false
// Add rounded corners to UIView
myNewView.layer.cornerRadius = boxView.layer.cornerRadius
let activityView = UIActivityIndicatorView(style: .whiteLarge)
activityView.center = myNewView.center
activityView.startAnimating()
boxView.addSubview(myNewView)
myNewView.addSubview(activityView)
}else{
print("Done")
DispatchQueue.main.async(execute: { () -> Void in
myNewView.removeFromSuperview()
self.view.bringSubviewToFront(boxView)
})
myNewView.isHidden = true
}
}
None of the options after else have worked and I am lost at a solution.
Edit: I want the same function(s) to accommodate three different views within the one view controller.
Move myNewView outside of the viewLoading function scope, and it is better to create separate methods with their own responsibilities, like so:
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var loaderView: UIView?
func showLoading(boxView: UIView, error: Bool, errorMessage: String) {
if (self.loaderView != nil) {
self.hideLoading()
}
let newView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: boxView.frame.width, height: boxView.frame.height))
newView.backgroundColor = UIColor.black.withAlphaComponent(0.75)
newView.isOpaque = false
// Add rounded corners to UIView
newView.layer.cornerRadius = boxView.layer.cornerRadius
let activityView = UIActivityIndicatorView(style: .whiteLarge)
activityView.center = newView.center
activityView.startAnimating()
boxView.addSubview(newView)
newView.addSubview(activityView)
self.loaderView = newView
}
func hideLoading() {
guard
let loaderView = self.loaderView,
let boxView = loaderView.superview
else { return }
DispatchQueue.main.async {
loaderView.removeFromSuperview()
self.view.bringSubviewToFront(boxView) // need this?
self.loaderView = nil
}
}
}
You are creating a new view every time that method is called and then you are trying to dismish that newly created view. Instead, you should save a reference of the view when you show it and call removeFromSuperview on that instance when you need to hide it.
Check this..
CommonMethods.swift
import UIKit
class CommonMethods: UIViewController {
static let actInd: UIActivityIndicatorView = UIActivityIndicatorView()
static let container: UIView = UIView()
static let loadingView: UIView = UIView()
static func showActivityIndicatory(uiView: UIView) {
container.frame = uiView.frame
container.center = uiView.center
container.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:255/255, green:255/255, blue:255/255, alpha: 0.3)
loadingView.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPoint(x: 0,y :0), size: CGSize(width: 80, height: 80))
loadingView.center = uiView.center
loadingView.backgroundColor = UIColor(red:44/255, green:44/255, blue:44/255, alpha: 0.7)
loadingView.clipsToBounds = true
loadingView.layer.cornerRadius = 10
actInd.frame = CGRect(origin: CGPoint(x: 0,y :0), size: CGSize(width: 40, height: 40))
actInd.style =
UIActivityIndicatorView.Style.whiteLarge
actInd.center = CGPoint(x: loadingView.frame.size.width / 2, y: loadingView.frame.size.height / 2);
loadingView.addSubview(actInd)
container.addSubview(loadingView)
uiView.addSubview(container)
actInd.startAnimating()
}
static func hideActivityIndicatory(uiView: UIView) {
container.removeFromSuperview()
actInd.stopAnimating()
}
}
call it from viewcontroller class like
CommonMethods.showActivityIndicatory(uiView: self.view)
CommonMethods.hideActivityIndicatory(uiView: self.view)
I can't seem to increase the thickness of the track. Been trying other recommendations and looking for this option in the documentation but it doesn't seem to be working, anyone know why?:(
class factionButton: UISlider {
var factionSlider = UISlider()
func factionBalanceSlider(){
factionSlider.frame = CGRect(x: 15, y: 542, width: 386, height: 57)
factionSlider.minimumValueImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Alliance Slider")
factionSlider.maximumValueImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Horde Slider")
factionSlider.setThumbImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "Thumb Image"), for: .normal)
factionSlider.minimumTrackTintColor = UIColor(red:0.08, green:0.33, blue:0.69, alpha:0.8)
factionSlider.maximumTrackTintColor = UIColor(red:1.00, green:0.00, blue:0.00, alpha:0.59)
factionSlider.setValue(0.5, animated: true)
factionSlider.isContinuous = true
factionSlider.addTarget(self, action: #selector(recordFactionBalance(sender:)) , for: .valueChanged)
}
func getSlider() -> UISlider {
return factionSlider
}
override func trackRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
let customBounds = CGRect(x: 16, y: 21, width: 343, height: 7)
super.trackRect(forBounds: customBounds)
return customBounds
}
As mentioned in many other answers, you can change the height by creating a custom slider as below,
class CustomSlider: UISlider {
override func trackRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
var rect = super.trackRect(forBounds: bounds)
rect.size.height = 7
return rect
}
}
But in your particular case, you are not seeing the change because your implementation is not allowing the factionSlider to use overridden trackRect. To use that you need to change that to CustomSlider as below,
class FactionButton: UISlider {
var factionSlider = CustomSlider()
func factionBalanceSlider(){
factionSlider.frame = CGRect(x: 15, y: 542, width: 386, height: 57)
factionSlider.minimumValueImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Alliance Slider")
factionSlider.maximumValueImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "Horde Slider")
factionSlider.setThumbImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "Thumb Image"), for: .normal)
factionSlider.minimumTrackTintColor = UIColor(red:0.08, green:0.33, blue:0.69, alpha:0.8)
factionSlider.maximumTrackTintColor = UIColor(red:1.00, green:0.00, blue:0.00, alpha:0.59)
factionSlider.setValue(0.5, animated: true)
factionSlider.isContinuous = true
factionSlider.addTarget(self, action: #selector(recordFactionBalance(sender:)) , for: .valueChanged)
}
func getSlider() -> UISlider {
return factionSlider
}
}
Note In Swift, class name should start with Capital as i updated above. Secondly, I think FactionButton should not be a subclass of UISlider.
You should get the current bounds from the super class first, then just change the height:
override func trackRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
var customBounds = super.trackRect(forBounds: bounds)
customBounds.size.height = 7
return customBounds
}
Setting the rect size expands the slider to the bottom only. So the origin should be recalculated to keep the slider centered.
#IBDesignable
class CustomSlider: UISlider {
#IBInspectable var trackHeight: CGFloat = 6
override func trackRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
var rect = super.trackRect(forBounds: bounds)
rect.size.height = trackHeight
rect.origin.y -= trackHeight / 2
return rect
}
}
I made this by adding this
1.
class CustomSlider: UISlider {
override func trackRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
let point = CGPoint(x: bounds.minX, y: bounds.midY)
return CGRect(origin: point, size: CGSize(width: bounds.width, height: 10)) //this height is the thickness
}
}
storyboard - change UISlider class to my CustomSlider
FYI for newbie like me..
change color is here :)
I'm trying to create a new animated line every second on the screen. Each second I do get a new line, however it overrides the old one. I don't know why but it's probably something idiotic I'm overlooking. Here's my code:
func repeatThis() {
for x in 1...10 {
let time = dispatch_time(dispatch_time_t(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW), Int64(x) * Int64(NSEC_PER_SEC))
dispatch_after(time, dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
var topLinePatha: UIBezierPath {
return UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0 + (x * 10), width: 1, height: 10))
}
var topLinePathb: UIBezierPath {
return UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0 + (x * 10), width: Int(UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds.width), height: 10))
}
let expAnimation: CABasicAnimation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "path")
expAnimation.fromValue = topLinePatha.CGPath
expAnimation.toValue = topLinePathb.CGPath
expAnimation.duration = self.animationTime
expAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards
expAnimation.removedOnCompletion = false
self.addAnimation(expAnimation, forKey: nil)
print(x)
}
}
}
Thanks for the help
Edit 1:
Here's an issue I'm having with the animation timing where basically the animations override each other:
func repeatThis() {
var runningPath = UIBezierPath()
for x in 0...10 {
delay(Double(x) / 10) {
let topLineStartPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: 1, height: 10))
let topLineEndPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: Int(self.bounds.width), height: 10))
let fullStartPath = runningPath.copy() as! UIBezierPath
fullStartPath.appendPath(topLineStartPath)
let fullEndPath = runningPath.copy() as! UIBezierPath
fullEndPath.appendPath(topLineEndPath)
let expAnimation: CABasicAnimation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "path")
expAnimation.fromValue = fullStartPath.CGPath
expAnimation.toValue = fullEndPath.CGPath
expAnimation.duration = self.animationTime
expAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards
expAnimation.removedOnCompletion = false
self.addAnimation(expAnimation, forKey: nil)
print(x)
runningPath = fullEndPath
}
}
}
func delay(delay:Double, closure:()->()) {
dispatch_after(
dispatch_time(
DISPATCH_TIME_NOW,
Int64(delay * Double(NSEC_PER_SEC))
),
dispatch_get_main_queue(), closure)
}
Your code is replacing the CAShapeLayer's path each time you do an animation, so for each "line" that you animate in, you lose the past lines.
To show multiple lines, you could either:
Add multiple subpaths to the CAShapeLayer's path, one for each line, using the method UIBezierPath.appendPath.
Use multiple CAShapeLayers, one for each line.
Here's alternative #1, which is a smaller change from your current code. This is a self-contained example that you can add into a new iOS project in a view controller called ViewController.
import UIKit
class MyShapeLayer: CAShapeLayer {
var animationTime: NSTimeInterval = 0.75
func repeatThis() {
// Keep track of the path so far
var runningPath = UIBezierPath()
for x in 1...10 {
let time = dispatch_time(dispatch_time_t(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW), Int64(x) * Int64(NSEC_PER_SEC))
dispatch_after(time, dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
// We will add a rectangular subpath onto runningPath.
// It will be animated starting with:
let topLineStartPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: 1, height: 10))
// and ending with:
let topLineEndPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: Int(self.bounds.width), height: 10))
// Copy the running path, and add the starting and ending subpaths onto it
let fullStartPath = runningPath.copy() as! UIBezierPath
fullStartPath.appendPath(topLineStartPath)
let fullEndPath = runningPath.copy() as! UIBezierPath
fullEndPath.appendPath(topLineEndPath)
// Animate from fullStartPath to fullEndPath
let expAnimation: CABasicAnimation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "path")
expAnimation.fromValue = fullStartPath.CGPath
expAnimation.toValue = fullEndPath.CGPath
expAnimation.duration = self.animationTime
expAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards
expAnimation.removedOnCompletion = false
self.addAnimation(expAnimation, forKey: nil)
print(x)
// The next time through the loop, add on to this iteration's ending path
runningPath = fullEndPath
}
}
}

self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
if let myShapeLayer = self.view.layer as? MyShapeLayer {
myShapeLayer.repeatThis()
}
}
}
And the result:
Here's a way to do alternative #2. I made the animationTime longer so you can see that the animations for each line can overlap.
class LineAtATimeView: UIView {
var animationTime = 1.25 // longer duration so line animations overlap
func repeatAddingLines() {
for x in 1...10 {
let time = dispatch_time(dispatch_time_t(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW), Int64(x) * Int64(NSEC_PER_SEC))
dispatch_after(time, dispatch_get_main_queue()) {
let newLayer = CAShapeLayer()
newLayer.frame = self.bounds
self.layer.addSublayer(newLayer)
let topLineStartPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: 1, height: 10))
let topLineEndPath = UIBezierPath(rect: CGRect(x: 0, y: x * 10, width: Int(self.bounds.width), height: 10))
let expAnimation: CABasicAnimation = CABasicAnimation(keyPath: "path")
expAnimation.fromValue = topLineStartPath.CGPath
expAnimation.toValue = topLineEndPath.CGPath
expAnimation.duration = self.animationTime
expAnimation.fillMode = kCAFillModeForwards
expAnimation.removedOnCompletion = false
newLayer.addAnimation(expAnimation, forKey: nil)
}
}
}
}
class ViewController2: UIViewController {
override func loadView() {
self.view = LineAtATimeView()
self.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
if let v = self.view as? LineAtATimeView {
v.repeatAddingLines()
}
}
}
