I can't keep popover the same position on the screen after rotation. Is there any good way to do that, because just setting some frame to popover works terrible after rotating.popover.frame = CGRectMake(someFrame);
After rotation popover looks fine only if it is in the center of the screen.
Apple has a Q&A on exactly this issue. You can find the details here:
Technical Q&A QA1694 Handling Popover Controllers During Orientation Changes
Basically, the technique explains that in your view controller's didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation
method, you will present the pop over again as follows:
- (void)didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)fromInterfaceOrientation
{
[aPopover presentPopoverFromRect:targetRect.frame inView:self.view permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
}
For more information, have a read of the article above, and also the UIPopoverController Class Reference:
If the user rotates the device while a popover is visible, the popover controller hides the popover and then shows it again at the end of the rotation. The popover controller attempts to position the popover appropriately for you but you may have to present it again or hide it altogether in some cases. For example, when displayed from a bar button item, the popover controller automatically adjusts the position (and potentially the size) of the popover to account for changes to the position of the bar button item. However, if you remove the bar button item during the rotation, or if you presented the popover from a target rectangle in a view, the popover controller does not attempt to reposition the popover. In those cases, you must manually hide the popover or present it again from an appropriate new position. You can do this in the didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation: method of the view controller that you used to present the popover.
As of iOS 8.0.2 willRotateToInterfaceOrientation will not have any effect. As mhrrt mentioned, you need to use the delegate method:
- (void)popoverController:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController willRepositionPopoverToRect:(inout CGRect *)rect inView:(inout UIView *__autoreleasing *)view
So for example if you want your popover to appear directly below a button that was pressed, you would use the following code:
- (void)popoverController:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController willRepositionPopoverToRect:(inout CGRect *)rect inView:(inout UIView *__autoreleasing *)view
{
CGRect rectInView = [self.theButton convertRect:self.theButton.frame toView:self.view];
*rect = CGRectMake(CGRectGetMidX(rectInView), CGRectGetMaxY(rectInView), 1, 1);
*view = self.view;
}
In iOS 7 you can use - (void)popoverController:(UIPopoverController *)popoverController willRepositionPopoverToRect:(inout CGRect *)rect inView:(inout UIView *__autoreleasing *)view
to reposition your UIPopoverController's view on interface orientation change.
See the UIPopoverControllerDelegate
documentation.
You can do this in didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:
method of the view controller that you used to present the popover.
Use setPopoverContentSize:animated:
method for setting the size of the popover.
UIPopoverController
was deprecated in ios9 in favor of UIPopoverPresentationController introduced in ios8. (I went through this transition also when going from UIActionSheet
to UIAlertController
.) You have two choices (example in obj-C):
A. Implement the UIViewController
method below (UIKit calls this method before changing the size of a presented view controller’s view).
- (void)viewWillTransitionToSize:(CGSize)size
withTransitionCoordinator:(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator>)coordinator {
[super viewWillTransitionToSize:size withTransitionCoordinator:coordinator];
[coordinator animateAlongsideTransition:nil
completion:^(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext> _Nonnull context) {
// Fix up popover placement if necessary, *after* the transition.
// Be careful here if a subclass also overrides this method.
if (self.presentedViewController) {
UIPopoverPresentationController *presentationController =
[self.presentedViewController popoverPresentationController];
UIView *selectedView = /** YOUR VIEW */;
presentationController.sourceView = selectedView.superview;
presentationController.sourceRect = selectedView.frame;
}
}];
}
B. Alternatively, when configuring your UIPopoverPresentationController
to present, also set its delegate. e.g. your presenting vc can implement UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate
and assign itself as the delegate. Then implement the delegate method:
- (void)popoverPresentationController:(UIPopoverPresentationController *)popoverPresentationController
willRepositionPopoverToRect:(inout CGRect *)rect
inView:(inout UIView * _Nonnull *)view {
UIView *selectedView = /** YOUR VIEW */;
// Update where the arrow pops out of in the view you selected.
*view = selectedView;
*rect = selectedView.bounds;
}
For Swift:
func popoverPresentationController(_ popoverPresentationController: UIPopoverPresentationController, willRepositionPopoverTo rect: UnsafeMutablePointer<CGRect>, in view: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<UIView>)
{
rect.pointee = CGRect(x: self.view.frame.size.width, y: 0, width: 1, height: 1) // Set new rect here
}
I've tried just to set new rect (rect.initialize(...)) and it works.
func popoverPresentationController(popoverPresentationController: UIPopoverPresentationController, willRepositionPopoverToRect rect: UnsafeMutablePointer<CGRect>, inView view: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<UIView?>) {
if popoverPresentationController.presentedViewController.view.tag == Globals.PopoverTempTag
{
rect.initialize(getForPopupSourceRect())
}
}
I have similar problem which I resolve by this
[myPop presentPopoverFromRect:myfield.frame inView:myscrollview permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny animated:YES];
Where myfield
is frame from which you want to show your popover and myscrollview
is container view in which you add your popover as subview(in my case its my scrollview, instead of putting inView:self.view
I use inView:myscrollview
).
Initialize PopOver Controller
var popoverContent: PopoverContentViewController?
Write Defination for PopOver Controller
popoverContent = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "PopoverContentViewController") as? PopoverContentViewController popoverContent?.modalPresentationStyle = .popover let popover = popoverContent?.popoverPresentationController! popover?.delegate = self popoverContent?.preQuestionInfoPopUpViewDelegateObject = self popover?.permittedArrowDirections = UIPopoverArrowDirection() popover?.sourceView = self.view popover?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: self.view.bounds.midX, y: self.view.bounds.midY, width: 330, height: 330)
Present PopOver Controller
self.present(popoverContent, animated: true, completion:nil)
Write below method and assign new size to popover:
override func viewWillTransition(to size: CGSize, with coordinator: UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator) { let popover = popoverContent?.popoverPresentationController! popover?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: size.width/2, y: size.height/2, width: 0, height: 0) }
I had a same problem. Instead of performing -presentPopoverFromRect
each time by keeping track of the source rectangle / view from which it is presented, I subclassed UIPopoverController
. After doing it, all you have to do is set either the UIBarButtonItem / UIView from where the popover has to be displayed. You can even opt for displaying the popover from custom frame which can be passed in as a NSString value.
CSPopoverController.h:
#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
// The original popover controller would not re-orientate itself when the orientation change occurs. To tackle that issue, this subclass is created
@interface CSPopoverController : UIPopoverController
@property (nonatomic, strong) NSString *popoverDisplaySourceFrame; // Mutually Exclusive. If you want to set custom rect as source, make sure that popOverDisplaySource is nil
@property (nonatomic, strong) id popoverDisplaySource; // Mutually exclusive. If UIBarButtonItem is set to it, popoverDisplaySourceFrame is neglected.
@property (nonatomic, strong) UIView *popoverDisplayView;
@property (nonatomic, assign, getter = shouldAutomaticallyReorientate) BOOL automaticallyReorientate;
-(void)reorientatePopover;
@end

Usage:
If it is a UIBarButtonItem from where you are presenting it:
CSPopoverController *popOverCont = [[CSPopoverController alloc]initWithContentViewController:navCont];
self.popOver = popOverCont;
[popOverCont setPopoverDisplaySource:self.settingsButtonItem];
If it is a UIView from where you are presenting the popover:
CSPopoverController *popOver = [[CSPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:navigation];
self.iPadPopoverController = popOver;
[newDateVC setIPadPopoverController:self.iPadPopoverController];
[popOver setPopoverDisplaySource:inButton];
[popOver setPopoverDisplayView:inView];
For iOS > 8 John Strickers answer helped but didn't do what I wanted it to do.
Here's the solution that worked for me. (If you want to download a full sample project it's here: https://github.com/appteur/uipopoverExample)
I created a property to hold any popover I wanted to present and also added a property to track the sourceRect and another for the view of the button I wanted the popover arrow to point at.
@property (nonatomic, weak) UIView *activePopoverBtn;
@property (nonatomic, strong) PopoverViewController *popoverVC;
@property (nonatomic, assign) CGRect sourceRect;
The button that triggered my popover is in a UIToolbar. When tapped it runs the following method that creates and launches the popover.
-(void) buttonAction:(id)sender event:(UIEvent*)event
{
NSLog(@"ButtonAction");
// when the button is tapped we want to display a popover, so setup all the variables needed and present it here
// get a reference to which button's view was tapped (this is to get
// the frame to update the arrow to later on rotation)
// since UIBarButtonItems don't have a 'frame' property I found this way is easy
UIView *buttonView = [[event.allTouches anyObject] view];
// set our tracker properties for when the orientation changes (handled in the viewWillTransitionToSize method above)
self.activePopoverBtn = buttonView;
self.sourceRect = buttonView.frame;
// get our size, make it adapt based on our view bounds
CGSize viewSize = self.view.bounds.size;
CGSize contentSize = CGSizeMake(viewSize.width, viewSize.height - 100.0);
// set our popover view controller property
self.popoverVC = [[UIStoryboard storyboardWithName:@"Main" bundle:[NSBundle mainBundle]] instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:@"PopoverVC"];
// configure using a convenience method (if you have multiple popovers this makes it faster with less code)
[self setupPopover:self.popoverVC
withSourceView:buttonView.superview // this will be the toolbar
sourceRect:self.sourceRect
contentSize:contentSize];
[self presentViewController:self.popoverVC animated:YES completion:nil];
}
The 'setupPopover:withSourceView:sourceRect:contentSize method is simply a convenience method to set the popoverPresentationController properties if you plan to display multiple popovers and want them configured the same. It's implementation is below.
// convenience method in case you want to display multiple popovers
-(void) setupPopover:(UIViewController*)popover withSourceView:(UIView*)sourceView sourceRect:(CGRect)sourceRect contentSize:(CGSize)contentSize
{
NSLog(@"\npopoverPresentationController: %@\n", popover.popoverPresentationController);
popover.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationPopover;
popover.popoverPresentationController.delegate = self;
popover.popoverPresentationController.sourceView = sourceView;
popover.popoverPresentationController.sourceRect = sourceRect;
popover.preferredContentSize = contentSize;
popover.popoverPresentationController.permittedArrowDirections = UIPopoverArrowDirectionDown;
popover.popoverPresentationController.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
}
For iOS 8 and up the viewWillTransitionToSize:withTransitionCoordinator get's called on the view controller when the device rotates.
I implemented this method in my presenting view controller class as shown below.
// called when rotating a device
- (void)viewWillTransitionToSize:(CGSize)size withTransitionCoordinator:(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinator>)coordinator
{
NSLog(@"viewWillTransitionToSize [%@]", NSStringFromCGSize(size));
// resizes popover to new size and arrow location on orientation change
[coordinator animateAlongsideTransition:^(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext> _Nonnull context)
{
if (self.popoverVC)
{
// get the new frame of our button (this is our new source rect)
CGRect viewframe = self.activePopoverBtn ? self.activePopoverBtn.frame : CGRectZero;
// update our popover view controller's sourceRect so the arrow will be pointed in the right place
self.popoverVC.popoverPresentationController.sourceRect = viewframe;
// update the preferred content size if we want to adapt the size of the popover to fit the new bounds
self.popoverVC.preferredContentSize = CGSizeMake(self.view.bounds.size.width -20, self.view.bounds.size.height - 100);
}
} completion:^(id<UIViewControllerTransitionCoordinatorContext> _Nonnull context) {
// anything you want to do when the transition completes
}];
}
Swift 3:
class MyClass: UIViewController, UIPopoverPresentationControllerDelegate {
...
var popover:UIPopoverPresentationController?
...
// Where you want to set the popover...
popover = YourViewController?.popoverPresentationController
popover?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: self.view.bounds.midX, y: self.view.bounds.midY, width: 0, height: 0)
popover?.delegate = self
...
// override didRotate...
override func didRotate(from fromInterfaceOrientation: UIInterfaceOrientation) {
popover?.sourceRect = CGRect(x: self.view.bounds.midX, y: self.view.bounds.midY, width: 0, height: 0)
}
}
didRotate
is deprecated. You should be using one of the two approaches I mentioned in https://mcmap.net/q/593655/-how-to-make-uipopovercontroller-keep-same-position-after-rotating, e.g. popoverPresentationController(_:willRepositionPopoverTo:in:)
(docs) This is in part because you can change the layout of a screen by more than rotations now, such as through the split-screen multitasking features in ios9+ –
Directory I have popoverPresentationController that I present on a view that has a "fake" nav bar. So I can't attach the popoverPresentationController to a barButtonItem. My popup appears in the right place but does not when the screen rotates.
So for some reason popoverPresentationController(_ popoverPresentationController: UIPopoverPresentationController, willRepositionPopoverTo rect: UnsafeMutablePointer<CGRect>, in view: AutoreleasingUnsafeMutablePointer<UIView>)
does not get called for me.
To work around this (iOS 12, Swift 4.2) I added constraints to the popup in the completion closure when calling present. Now my popup stays where I would expect it too.
present(viewController, animated: true) { [weak self] in
DDLogDebug(String(describing: viewController.view.frame))
if let containerView = viewController.popoverPresentationController?.containerView,
let presentedView = viewController.popoverPresentationController?.presentedView,
let imageView = self?.headerView.settingsButton {
withExtendedLifetime(self) {
let deltaY:CGFloat = presentedView.frame.origin.y - imageView.frame.maxY
let topConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint.init(item: presentedView, attribute: .top, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: imageView.imageView, attribute: .bottom, multiplier: 1, constant: deltaY)
topConstraint?.priority = UILayoutPriority(rawValue: 999)
topConstraint?.isActive = true
let heightContraint = NSLayoutConstraint.init(item: presentedView, attribute: .height, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: containerView, attribute: .height, multiplier: 0.75, constant: -deltaY)
heightContraint?.isActive = true
let leftConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint.init(item: presentedView, attribute: .left, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: containerView, attribute: .left, multiplier: 1, constant: presentedView.frame.origin.x)
leftConstraint.isActive = true
let widthConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint.init(item: presentedView, attribute: .width, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: nil, attribute: .notAnAttribute, multiplier: 1, constant: presentedView.frame.width)
widthConstraint.isActive = true
presentedView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
}
}
}
