How is a popover view used in a view controller?


Asked by Lane Reese on Dec 08, 2021 FAQ



The UIModalPresentationPopover style displays the view controller in a popover view. Popovers are useful for displaying additional information or a list of items related to a focused or selected object. In a horizontally regular environment, the popover view covers only part of the screen, as shown in Figure 8-2.
In fact,
Your view and view controller code must handle actions and events inside the popover explicitly and call the dismiss (animated:) method as needed. 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.
One may also ask, The popover can also be dismissed from within the popover's view by calling the dismiss () method on the ViewController . The dismiss () call accepts an optional parameter that will be passed to the callback described as follows.
Indeed,
The present () method is used to display the popover on the popover controller instance. If you want to set the position of the popover, it is required to pass a click event in the present () method. If you have not passed any click event, the popover will be displayed at the center of the current page of the screen.
Just so,
They are a type of view controller that requires user attention. Modals take over the window, which on the bigger real estate of the iPad, is often a waste of space. Popovers use limited space and place a smaller view on top of the main window. Apple in iOS8 merged popovers and alerts into modals to create the current adaptive layout system.
