How can I add a watermark to an image using this code?

Question

I know there are several other ways to do this; I don\'t want to import anything that I don\'t need to. If someone can help me with his code, that would be great.

Answer 1

If you grab the UIImageViews' images you could use the following concept:

if let img = UIImage(named: "image.png"), img2 = UIImage(named: "watermark.png") {

    let rect = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: img.size.width, height: img.size.height)

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(img.size, true, 0)
    let context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()

    CGContextSetFillColorWithColor(context, UIColor.whiteColor().CGColor)
    CGContextFillRect(context, rect)

    img.drawInRect(rect, blendMode: .Normal, alpha: 1)
    img2.drawInRect(CGRectMake(x,y,width,height), blendMode: .Normal, alpha: 1)

    let result = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

    UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(result, nil, nil, nil)

}

SWIFT 4 Use this

let backgroundImage = imageData!
let watermarkImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "jodi_url_icon")

let size = backgroundImage.size
let scale = backgroundImage.scale

UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(size, false, scale)
backgroundImage.draw(in: CGRect(x: 0.0, y: 0.0, width: size.width, height: size.height))
watermarkImage.draw(in: CGRect(x: 10, y: 10, width: size.width, height: size.height - 40))

let result = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
UIGraphicsEndImageContext()

Use result to UIImageView, tested.
