Animated popover that pops out of a frame. You can specify the direction of the popover and the arrow that points to its origin. Color, border radius and font can be easily customized. This popover can be used to leave subtle hints about your UI and provide fun looking onboarding popups.
#Setup with Cocoapods

pod 'AMPopTip'
to yourPodfile
- Run
pod install
- Run
open App.xcworkspace
#Setup with Carthage
- Add
github "andreamazz/AMPopTip"
- Run
carthage update
- Add
AMPopTip.framework
in your project
#Usage The API is fairly straight forward, you can show and hide the popover at any time.
##Showing the popover You must specify the text that you want to display alongside the popover direction, its max width, the view that will contain it and the frame of the view that the popover's arrow will point to.
####Objective-C
self.popTip = [AMPopTip popTip];
[self.popTip showText:@"I'm a popover popping over" direction:AMPopTipDirectionUp maxWidth:200 inView:self.view fromFrame:someView.frame];
####Swift
let popTip = AMPopTip()
popTip.showText("Hello", direction: .Up, maxWidth: 200, inView: self.view, fromFrame: someView.frame)
You can also display the popover in the center, with no arrow, in this case the fromFrame
parameter will be the whole view:
[self.popTip showText:@"I'm a popover" direction:AMPopTipDirectionNone maxWidth:200 inView:self.view fromFrame:self.view.frame];
##Coordinate system
Please note that the frame you are intended to provide needs to refer to the absolute coordinate system of the view you are presenting the popover in. This means that if you are presenting the popover in a view, pointing to a nested subview, you'll need to convert its frame using UIKit's convertRect(_:toView:)
. Read the reference here.
##Showing a custom view You can provide a custom view that will be wrapped in the poptip and presented.
####Objective-C
UIView *cutomView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100)];
// Configure your view
[self.popTip showCustomView:customView direction:AMPopTipDirectionDown inView:self.view fromFrame:self.view.frame];
####Swift
let customView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 100, height: 100))
// Configure your view
popTip.showCustomView(view, direction: .Down, inView: self.view, fromFrame: self.view.frame)
##Dismissing the popover You can hide the popover by calling:
[self.popTip hide];
Or you can specify the duration of the popover:
[self.popTip showText:@"I'm a popover popping over" direction:AMPopTipDirectionUp maxWidth:200 inView:self.view fromFrame:someView.frame duration:3];
You can also let the user dismiss the popover by tapping on it:
self.popTip.shouldDismissOnTap = YES;
You can add a block that will be fired when the user taps the popover...
self.popTip.tapHandler = ^{
NSLog(@"Popover selected!");
};
... when the popover is shown...
self.popTip.appearHandler = ^{
NSLog(@"Appeared!");
};
... or when the popover is dismissed:
self.popTip.dismissHandler = ^{
NSLog(@"Dismissed!");
};
#Custom entrance animation You can choose which animation should be performed when the poptip is displayed:
self.popTip.entranceAnimation = AMPopTipEntranceAnimationScale;
Available animations:
AMPopTipEntranceAnimationScale,
AMPopTipEntranceAnimationTransition,
AMPopTipEntranceAnimationNone,
AMPopTipEntranceAnimationCustom
##AMPopTipEntranceAnimationCustom
You can provide your own animation block when using AMPopTipEntranceAnimationCustom
:
self.popTip.entranceAnimation = AMPopTipEntranceAnimationCustom;
__weak AMViewController *weakSelf = self;
self.popTip.entranceAnimationHandler = ^(void (^completion)(void)){
// Setup the animation
weakSelf.popTip.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(M_PI);
[UIView animateWithDuration:0.5 delay:0 usingSpringWithDamping:0.6 initialSpringVelocity:1.5 options:(UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut) animations:^{
weakSelf.popTip.transform = CGAffineTransformIdentity;
} completion:^(BOOL done){
completion();
}];
};
This sample makes the poptip rotate on entrance. Make sure to call the completion block when the animation is done. Also note that the animation is fired as soon as the poptip is added as subview.
#Action animations Action animations are subtle animations that can be performed to get the user's attention. Set your preferred animation:
self.popTip.actionAnimation = AMPopTipActionAnimationBounce;
Available animations:
AMPopTipActionAnimationBounce,
AMPopTipActionAnimationFloat,
AMPopTipActionAnimationPulse,
AMPopTipActionAnimationNone
The animation is fired as soon as the popover enters the scene and completes its entrance animation.
#Customization Use the appearance proxy to customize the popover before creating the instance, or just use its public properties:
AMPopTip *appearance = [AMPopTip appearance];
appearance.font = <#UIFont#>;
appearance.textColor = <#UIColor#>;
appearance.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentLeft;
appearance.popoverColor = <#UIColor#>;
appearance.borderColor = <#UIColor#>;
appearance.borderWidth = <#CGFloat#>;
appearance.radius = <#CGFloat#>; // Popover's border radius
appearance.rounded = <#BOOL#>; // If set to YES the radius will equal frame.height / 2
appearance.offset = <#CGFloat#>; // Offset between the popover and the origin
appearance.padding = <#CGFloat#>;
appearance.edgeInsets = <#UIEdgeInsets#>;
appearance.arrowSize = <#CGSize#>;
appearance.animationIn = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.animationOut = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.delayIn = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.delayOut = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.entranceAnimation = <#AMPopTipEntranceAnimation#>;
appearance.actionAnimation = <#AMPopTipActionAnimation#>;
appearance.actionFloatOffset = <#CGFloat#>;
appearance.actionBounceOffset = <#CGFloat#>;
appearance.actionPulseOffset = <#CGFloat#>;
appearance.actionAnimationIn = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.actionAnimationOut = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.actionDelayIn = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.actionDelayOut = <#NSTimeInterval#>;
appearance.edgeMargin = <#CGFloat#>;
