Removing a UIView from its superView and expanding its frame to full screen
- by Magic Bullet Dave
I have an object that is a subclass of UIView that can be added to a view hierarchy as a subView. I want to be able to remove the UIView from its superView and add it as a subView of the main window and then expand to full screen.
Something along the lines of:
// Remove from superView and add to mainWindow
[self retain];
[self removeFromSuperView];
[self addSubView:mainWindow];
// Animate to full screen
[UIView beginAnimations:@"expandToFullScreen" context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:1.0];
self.frame = [[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame];
[UIView commitAnimations];
[self release];
Firstly am I on the right lines? Secondly, is there an easily way for the object to get a pointer to the mainWindow?
Thanks
Dave
