Example

To run the example project, clone the repo, and run pod install from the Example directory first.

Requirements

  • iOS 9.3+
  • Swift 5

Installation

PRGTipView is available through CocoaPods. To install it, simply add the following line to your Podfile:

pod 'PRGTipView'

Usage

    //1. Create a PRGTipViewConfiguration instance
    let config = PRGTipViewConfiguration()

    //2. Customize the TipView via the properties
    config.titleText = "This is a title"
    config.detailText = "This is the detail text, that adds more information to your tip."
    config.buttonText = "OK"
    config.focusView = button
    config.focusInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 8, left: 4, bottom: 8, right: 4)
    config.focusDistance = 50
    config.circularFocus = false
    config.animateIn = true
    config.animateOut = true

    //3a. You can either use the static func TipView.show like described below:
    PRGTipView.show(fromViewController: self, withConfiguration: config, completion: nil)

    //3b. Or you can create a PRGTipView instance and present it (it's a ViewController subclass)
    let tipView = PRGTipView(configuration: config)
    present(tipView, animated: false, completion: nil)

Configuration Properties

PRGTipViewConfiguration contains properties that help customize the presenting tip view:

PROPERTY TYPE DEFAULT VALUE EXPLANATION
backgroundColor UIColor .black The background color of the Tip View
backgroundAlpha CGFloat 0.85 The background alpha of the Tip View
tipTextYSpacing CGFloat 30 The vertical spacing between the Tip View Title, Detail and Button
titleText String? The string to be shown as the Tip View title
titleTextFont UIFont systemFont(ofSize: 25) The font of the Tip View title
titleTextColor UIColor .white The color of the Tip View title
attributedTitleText NSAttributedString? The attributed string to be shown as the Tip View title. If set, it overrides "titleText", "titleTextFont" and "titleTextColor" properties
detailText String? The string to be shown as the Tip View detail
detailTextFont UIFont systemFont(ofSize: 29) The font of the Tip View detail
detailTextColor UIColor .white The color of the Tip View detail
attributedDetailText NSAttributedString? The attributed string to be shown as the Tip View detail. If set, it overrides "detailText", "detailTextFont" and "detailTextColor" properties
buttonText String? The string to be shown as the Tip View dismissal button title
buttonTextFont UIFont boldSystemFont(ofSize: 14) The font of the Tip View dismissal button
buttonTextColor UIColor .white The color of the Tip View dismissal button
attributedButtonText NSAttributedString? The attributed string to be shown as the Tip View dismissal title. If set, it overrides "buttonText", "buttonTextFont" and "buttonTextColor" properties
focusView UIView? The UIView to be focused when the Tip View is presented
circularFocus Bool false If a "focusView" is provided, this property controls whether the mask used to focus on the view should be circular. In default "false" state, the mask is rectangular
useLargestDimension Bool true If "circularFocus" is set to true for a non square "focusView", leaving this property to "true" will use the "focusView"'s largest dimension to calculate the focus mask radius, while setting it to "false" will use the smallest dimension and centre the circular mask on the "focusView".
focusInsets UIEdgeInsets .zero Adds padding to the "focusView" mask. If "circularFocus" is set to "true", then it adds only the .top inset to the radius calculation.
animateIn Bool true Whether the Tip View should be presented animated. Helpful in situations where you want to chain several Tip Views and you do not want to repeat the animation on each and every one of them.
animateOut Bool true Whether the Tip View should be dismissed animated. Helpful in situations where you want to chain several Tip Views and you do not want to repeat the animation on each and every one of them.
pulseMode Enum .none Whether the "focusView", if provided, should pulse.
focusDistance CGfloat 0 The vertical spacing between the "focusView" and the container of the actual Tip Texts (Title, Detail, Button). If the provided "focusView" is in the bottom half of the screen, the tip container is presented above it and this property is the distance from the bottom of the tip container to the top of the "focusView" mask. If the provided "focusView" is in the top half of the screen, the tip container is presented below it and this property is the distance from the top of the tip container to the bottom of the "focusView" mask.
tipContainerLeading CGFloat 20 The spacing between the container of the actual Tip Texts (Title, Detail, Button) to it's superView's leading.
tipContainerTrailing CGFloat 20 The spacing between the container of the actual Tip Texts (Title, Detail, Button) trailing to it's superView's trailing.
animationDuration Double 0.3 The duration of any animation that takes place in the Tip View (except from the pulsating effect)
buttonAction (()->())? The code to be executed after the Tip View is dismissed

About the Pulsar Library

At the time of publishing PRGTipView, the Pulsar library has not been updated on the Cocoapods repositories and cannot be used as a direct dependency, thus resorting in including the v2.0.5 source code in the bundle. As soon as the dependencies are satisfied via Cocoapods, we will update PRGTipView to use Pulsar as a pod dependency.
