Re-ordering a collection of UIView's based on their CGPoint
- by Chris
Hi all,
I have a NSMutableArray that holds a collection of UIViewControllers
Amongst other properties and methods an instance of each of the viewControllers are placed in a parent view
The user will place these objects individually when desired to.
So essentially I use - (void)addSubview:(UIView *)view when a new view is added to the parent view controller.
Because the UI is isometric it's made things a tad more complicated
What I am trying to do is re-order the views based on their co-ordinate position, so items higher up the parent UIView frame is indexed lower then views lower in the parent UIview frame. And items that are on the left side of the view are positioned at a higher index to those on the right
I think the solution may have to do with re-ordering the NSMutableArray but how can I compare the CGpoints? Do I need to compare the x and y separately?
