How to set iPhone UIView z index?

问题

I want to move one view on top of another, how can I know the z index of the view, and how to move on to top?

回答1:

UIView siblings are stacked in the order in which they are added to their superview. The UIView hierarchy methods and properties are there to manage view order. In UIView.h:

@property(nonatomic,readonly) UIView *superview;
@property(nonatomic,readonly,copy) NSArray *subviews;

- (void)removeFromSuperview;
- (void)insertSubview:(UIView *)view atIndex:(NSInteger)index;
- (void)exchangeSubviewAtIndex:(NSInteger)index1 withSubviewAtIndex:(NSInteger)index2;

- (void)addSubview:(UIView *)view;
- (void)insertSubview:(UIView *)view belowSubview:(UIView *)siblingSubview;
- (void)insertSubview:(UIView *)view aboveSubview:(UIView *)siblingSubview;

- (void)bringSubviewToFront:(UIView *)view;
- (void)sendSubviewToBack:(UIView *)view;

The sibling views are ordered back to front in the subviews array. So the topmost view will be:

[parentView.subviews lastObject];

and bottom view will be:

[parentView.subviews objectAtIndex:0];

Like Kolin Krewinkel said, [parentView bringSubviewToFront:view] will bring the view to the top, but this is only the case if the views are all siblings in the hierarchy.

You can use the zPosition property of the view's layer (it's a CALayer object) to change the z-index of the view.

theView.layer.zPosition = 1;

As Viktor Nordling added, "big values are on top. You can use any values you want, including negative values." The default value is 0.

You need to import the QuartzCore framework to access the layer. Just add this line of code at the top of your implementation file.

#import "QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h"

IB and Swift

Given the flowing layout where yellow is the superview and red, green, and blue are sibling subviews of yellow,

the goal is to move a subview (let's say green) to the top.

In Interface Builder

In the Interface Builder all you need to do is drag the view you want showing on the top to the bottom of the list in the Documents Outline.

Alternatively, you can select the view and then in the menu go to Editor > Arrange > Send to Front.

In Swift

There are a couple of different ways to do this programmatically.

Method 1

yellowView.bringSubviewToFront(greenView)

• This method is the programmatic equivalent of the IB answer above.
• It only works if the subviews are siblings of each other.

• An array of the subviews is contained in yellowView.subviews. Here, bringSubviewToFront moves the greenView from index 0 to 2. This can be observed with

  print(yellowView.subviews.indexOf(greenView))
  

Method 2

greenView.layer.zPosition = 1

• This method just moves the 3D position of the layer higher (closer to the user) on the z-axis. Since the default is 0 for all the other views, the result is that the greenView looks like it is on top. However, it still remains at index 0 of the yellowView.subviews array. This can cause some unexpected results, though, because things like tap events will still go first to the view with the highest index number. For that reason, it might be better to go with Method 1 above.
• The zPosition could be set to CGFloat.greatestFiniteMagnitude (CGFloat(FLT_MAX) in older versions of Swift) to ensure that it is on top.

回答4:

[parentView bringSubviewToFront:view] ;

回答5:

If you want to do this through XCode's Interface Builder, you can use the menu options under Editor->Arrangement. There you'll find "Send to Front", "Send to Back", etc.

回答6:

Within the view you want to bring to the top... (in swift)

superview?.bringSubviewToFront(self)

回答7:

If you are using cocos2d, you may see an issue with [parentView bringSubviewToFront:view], at least it was not working for me. Instead of bringing the view I wanted to the front, I send the other views back and that did the trick.

[[[CCDirector sharedDirector] view] sendSubviewToBack:((UIButton *) button)]; 

回答8:

We can use zPosition in ios

if we have a view named salonDetailView eg : @IBOutlet weak var salonDetailView: UIView!

In my case see the image

and have UIView for GMSMapView eg : @IBOutlet weak var mapViewUI: GMSMapView!

To show the View salonDetailView upper of the mapViewUI

use zPosition as below

salonDetailView.layer.zPosition = 1

回答9:

Or use this

- (void)insertSubview:(UIView *)view belowSubview:(UIView*)siblingSubview;

as per here
