Hi, I am new to swift and IOs development and I am trying to add Floaty programmatically to my UITableViewController which is inside a UITabBarController. The issue is that the bottom tab bar is overlayed on top of the floating action button.

Inside my table view controller:

let floaty = Floaty() ... self.view.addSubview(floaty) // also tried: self.tabBarController?.view.addSubview(floaty) I tried setting the margins like this:

floaty.layoutMargins = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 0, bottom: 60, right: 0) floaty.layoutIfNeeded() self.view.layoutIfNeeded() But still it doesn't work.

The problem is that the bottom tab bar is overlaying the floating button because the position is relative to the bottom right corner of the window, not the table view.

I am wanting to change the floating buttons to a custom 1 with a blue background. the image is round and is 1024 x 1024. When I place it into the code and run, the image is small and not filling up the default white background. How could I over come this?

I'm have problems with different iPhones, in iPhone X for example the Floaty is cutted by TabBar, so I did try set constraint programatically, but this not works beucase errors about views hieararchy. In the samples the Floaty is not added by storyboard.

Hello,

I used sample in my own project:

When I pushed the view controller with the floaty button configured in viewDidLoad, I see that the button is shifting upwards (on the baseline, which is different on iPhoneX).

Any solution ? Thanks

please check my video to see the problem 👍 https://youtu.be/GXUAQ9IgyJU

I tried to put the following code in viewdidappear and viewdidload and it still keeps jumping up and down

  floaty.paddingY = 59
    floaty.buttonColor = UIColor.floatyColor()
    floaty.fabDelegate = self
    floaty.buttonImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "ic_fab_add")
    floaty.size = 56
    view.addSubview(floaty)

what am I doing wrong or what should I add to the code or should modify it

thanks

Hi, everyone i want change my button color on handler, but doesn´t change:

(...)

    item.title = "Talvez"
    item.icon = UIImage(named: "neutral")
    item.handler = { item in
        itembuttonColor =  UIColor.gray
        
    }

(...)

It´s possible to give me some help ?

Thanks for your time.

If you add the button into main scene and into other scene show the kayboard and back again the button Y is not correct!!

You need to add this into "keyboardWillHide":

internal func keyboardWillHide(_ notification: Notification) {
    UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.2, delay: 0, options: UIViewAnimationOptions(), animations: {
        if self.isCustomFrame == false {
            self.setRightBottomFrame()
        } else {
            self.size = min(self.frame.size.width, self.frame.size.height)
            self.frame = CGRect(
                x: UIScreen.main.bounds.width-self.size - self.paddingX,
                y: UIScreen.main.bounds.height-self.size - self.paddingY,
                width: self.size,
                height: self.size
            )
        }

        }, completion: nil)
}

Regards.

I have a color and I'm trying to assign it as the button color. It's crashing right before the view with the button appears and the console says: 2016-03-29 22:23:31.643 Homework[34702:2044491] *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: '*** -CGColor not defined for the UIColor <UIPlaceholderColor: 0x100a1ada0>; need to first convert colorspace.' *** First throw call stack: (0x184700f5c 0x1992f7f80 0x184700ea4 0x18a07c824 0x100173ff8 0x10016df94 0x10016e098 0x189488b4c 0x189473bd4 0x189472df4 0x189454d00 0x1894549ec 0x18945407c 0x189453dd0 0x18944d4bc 0x1846b7c30 0x1846b59d4 0x1845e4de0 0x189cc40ac 0x189cbef44 0x100051eb8 0x199b228b8) libc++abi.dylib: terminating with uncaught exception of type NSException (lldb) It points the crash to the class KCFloatingActionButton.swift line 433 and when you call that function in the same file, line 220. I'm sure the color I'm assigning is a UIColor.

I used following code to make global floaty button's position more higher.

override func viewDidLoad(){
    ...
    Floaty.global.button.paddingY += 48
    ...

global button's position got higher, but its actual touch area is still at global button's default position.

So when I touch that area, Floaty works as it touched, so I can't touch the tabBar button behind Floaty's touch area.

I figured out floaty's touch area with checking color blended layers in Simulator

What is the proper way to automate tests? I can set accessibility ids on FloatyItems but I can't seem to "find" them in my tests. They also don't [seem to] appear as descendants of the main Floaty.

I can find the main button with: app.otherElements["floaty"].exists but not any items: app.otherElements["floatyitem"].exists

if I look at the floaty: app.otherElements["floaty"].descendants(matching: .any).count I get one element, and it's the image.

Hi! Thanks for this amazing tool.

I'm trying to change the floaty.buttonImage in the handler of one of the items and it looks like the image is not being constrained to the bounds of the button like it is for the item.icon...screen shot and code below. placeToStayItem = FloatyItem() placeToStayItem?.buttonColor = UIColor.flatSunFlower() placeToStayItem?.title = "Place to stay" placeToStayItem?.icon = UIImage(named: "changeHotel") placeToStayItem?.handler = { item in self.spawnDoYouKnowWhereYouWillBeStayingQuestionView() self.floaty?.close() self.floaty?.buttonColor = (self.placeToStayItem?.buttonColor)! self.floaty?.buttonImage = UIImage(named: "changeHotel") }

This is the example of usage of Floaty buttons on this github repo. The code below creates a Floaty button and add on item inside.

let floaty = Floaty()
floaty.addItem("I got a handler", icon: UIImage(named: "icon")!, handler: { item in
    let alert = UIAlertController(title: "Hey", message: "I'm hungry...", preferredStyle: .alert)
    alert.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Me too", style: .default, handler: nil))
    self.present(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)
    floaty.close()
})

So my question is, are you sure that we really dont need a [weak self] since the method addItem is having a handler as an escaping closure?

I tried to add accessibility features to my app but when I turn on VoiceOver, floaty items are not clickable. I manually added these lines below but they are still not clickable. I also tried #183. When I open VoiceOver from settings, can't click floaty items. iPhone 7 iOS 15.3 Swift 5 Xcode 13.4

  @discardableResult
  @objc open func addItem(_ title: String, icon: UIImage?, handler: @escaping ((FloatyItem) -> Void)) -> FloatyItem {
    let item = FloatyItem()
      // ---------
    item.isAccessibilityElement = true
    item.accessibilityLabel = title
    item.accessibilityHint = "hint hint"
    item.accessibilityTraits.insert(.button)
      // ---------
    itemDefaultSet(item)
    item.title = title
    item.icon = icon
    item.handler = handler
    addItem(item: item)
    return item
  }

  }

Hi How to cover the overlay on Tabbar & NavigtaionBar too ?

 fileprivate func setOverlayView() {
    setOverlayFrame()
    overlayView.backgroundColor = overlayColor
    overlayView.alpha = 0
    overlayView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
  }

  fileprivate func setOverlayFrame() {
    if let superview = superview {
      overlayView.frame = CGRect(
        x: 0,y: 0,
        width: superview.bounds.width,
        height: superview.bounds.height
      )
    }
  }

Floaty padding Y is not working when set rtlMode property is true!

Here is my code:

    Floaty.global.rtlMode = true
    Floaty.global.button.paddingY = 55
    Floaty.global.show()
