CustomIOSAlertView

CustomIOSAlertView for Xamarin

Custom iOS AlertView

v0.9.5

support for iOS7+

The addSubview is not available in UIAlertView since iOS7. The view hierarchy for this class is private and must not be modified.

As a solution, this class creates an iOS-style dialog which you can extend with any UIViews or buttons. The animations and the looks are copied too and no images or other resources are needed.

Install

Change notes

• Fixed rotation for IOS8

• Removed 7 from the class name. Just use CustomIOSAlertView from now on, like: [[CustomIOSAlertView alloc] init];

• The initWithParentView method is now deprecated. Please use the init method instead, where you don't need to pass a parent view at all. In case the init doesn't work for you, please leave a note or open an issue here.

Quick start guide

1. Create the UIView object changed

   CustomIOSAlertView alertView = new CustomIOSAlertView();

2. Add some custom content to the alert view (optional)

   UIView customView ..;
   
   alertView.ContainerView=customView;

3. Display the dialog

   alertView.Show();

More functions

• Close the dialog

  alertView.Close();

• To add more buttons, pass a list of titles

  alertView.ButtonTitles=new NSString[]{new NSString("Button1"),new NSString("Button2"),new NSString("Button3")}

• You can remove all buttons by passing nil

  alertView.ButtonTitles=null;

• You can enable or disable the iOS7 parallax effects on the alert view

  alertView.UseMotionEffects=true;

• Handle button clicks with a custom delegate

  Add the delegate methods:

  alertView.ButtonClicked+=(sender,intargs)=>{...};

• Handle button clicks with a code block

  alertView.ButtonClicked+=(sender,intargs)=>{alertView.Close()};

Todos

This is a really quick implementation, and there are a few things missing:

• Adding more buttons: they don't exactly match the look with that of on iOS7

• Rotation: rotates wrong with the keyboard on
