Change blur effect style on-the-fly

Question

Is it any way to change blur effect style on-the-fly after creating view?

E.g. i've created in Storyboard blur view, but i need to change effect style from .Light to .Dark programmatically.

I can't just re-create view, because I have information in that view and dynamic constraints (constraints change with animations in some situations).

i know how to add, i need to change effect without recreating view – Archespore

The UIVisualEffectView properties effect and contentView are read-only, but you might be able to re-use the contentView. – Corrosion

yes, we can change the blur effect style on the fly... here is the code you are looking for....

MyView.effect = UIBlurEffect(style: .light) MyView.effect = UIBlurEffect(style: .dark) MyView.effect = UIBlurEffect(style: .extraLight)
