How can i make multiple customized uiimageview frame in one view? - iphone

I have to make view where there will be multiple curved or irregular shaped imageview. Now when i will touch a UIImageview then it will import image from photo gallery.For example: Suppose
I have an UIView with background image.
On that view i have 3 irregular shaped UIImageview.every UIImageview is attached with each other.
Now suppose i have touch in the first UIImageview then it will take an image from photo gallery.
When i have imported the image then that image will be as the background image of the UIImageview.
I have to make sure that if my UIImageviewis smaller then its background image then i will able to move the image or rotate the image or scale or zoom the image to adjust the image according to the size of UIImageview.
How can i do that whole process??? any help by link,source code,tutorial or anything else will be cordially appreciable.
Basically my first priority is that how can i make those irregular shaped UIImageView pro-grammatically.
IF ANY FURTHER QUERY TO ASK THEN PLEASE DON'T HESITATE.
Thanks In Advance

The one way of doing this is as follows:
Subclass from UIImageView set touchesBegan methods for each UIImageView for import image, setting on background and whatever you want to do on touch.
What does 'attached' mean? If all of them should move together, then, again, you have to deal with it in touchesBegan methods, sending messages like 'Hey views, i've moved on this vector:[vector], please do it too'.
In pt. 3.2 i didn't get your point. :( You can set in UIImageView subclass self.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit or UIViewContentModeScaleToFill, so its image will always fit the view.
About irregular shape, did you read links below? I suppose there's not an super easy way to do it :(

Creating translucent UIView with gaussian blur

I am in the process of creating an app where I have a background image (a UIImageView with the frame set to the UIView's bounds and added as a subview).
I would like to now add a UIView that will be over the background image but will apply gaussian blur to the image behind, only over the area where the UIView is.
I have just tried to use GPUImage to create a blur, which looks good but it uses 2 UIImageViews (one large background and one behind the UIView, which is blurred). Unfortunately the image no longer matches up with the background.
Is there any way to get the UIView to blur only the area behind it? A bit like the UIView is frosting the image behind.
Thanks!
Try FXBlurView from here - https://github.com/nicklockwood/FXBlurView
It should work.

Tiling an image in a UIVIew

I am trying to tile an image for an app I am making. I am making rope that I can set the length for. In order to do this, I have a function that takes my rope length, sets the frame size accordingly, and then sets the background color like this:
(picture is a UIView)
picture.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithPatternImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"Rope.png"]];
The view is blank. I tested it before by displaying an image by making picture a UIImageView instead, and it worked, but it won't show up anymore.
EDIT: I have now tried a few different methods of tiling, the best I can get is a stretched image. I need a working way to tile an image and get the output of my tiled image into a UIImage, UIImageView, or UIView.
Not sure what I did wrong but it is working now.

How can I make a UIView that is stretchable by its corners?

I'd like to have a UIView where the user can select each of the four corners and stretch the view by independently moving them.
How would I implement such a view?
To do this, you will need to subclass UIView and handle touch events manually. When you get a touch event, you will have to do some math and then set the frame of the view to the new size. I'd recommend making the background image a stretchable image using stretchableImageWithLeftCap:topCap. It shouldn't actually be that hard.

Animating UIImageView over a background image

I have a UIImageView that I have resized to fit a small ball. The current background is black color. I want to set the background as some image and then move the ball on top of that image. I tried to use another UIImageView but the background takes over the ball image and the ball is not visible. Any ideas!
In IB, are you sure you have the small UIImageView in on top of the larger one? Try deleting the smaller UIImageView from IB and re-adding it on top of the larger one. I noticed that it's hard to tell which UIView is on top in IB for some reason.
Posting as requested. Glad I could help!
I would suggest not using interface build and just doing it programatically, much more control that way.

UIImageView, UIView, taking a segment of a picture

I want to take an image from the UIImagePickerController and put it on a UIImageView that can move based on touch. I'm not sure how to get the picture onto the UIImageView. I thought the UIImageView automatically resizes the picture, so I couldn't grab just the top half of the picture and put that on the UIImageView. Is there an easy way to do this? thanks!
Use CGImageCreateWithImageInRect to crop (take a segment of?) a picture. Put a UIImageView inside a UIScrollView to let the user scroll through (move based on touch) a large image.
if you want to move and zoom your picture in a view, you need to use a UIScrollView. See Apple's ScrollViewSuite example. If you simply want to position the picture within a UIImageView, set the contentMode of the UIImageView to the setting you want e.g. scale, top, left, etc. See the UIImageView documentation for all options.
