Android SDK handle softinput events (open/close)
without comments 324 views
Like it or not, but we don’t have any events for softinput in the current SDK. Well, if you want to remove the unused views to make some extra space of the screen at the time of data entry? The only thing that managed to dig in the network is using onMeasure. I made a harness of his handler and now it somehow seems to be true.
First we need to extend desired Layout (as for my project – RelativeLayout) with onMeasure overriding

Animate curtains in iOS – simple with Transforms and CoreAnimation
without comments 1,814 views
Hello,
One of my friends asks me how to easily animate views like curtains. And which engine will help? The answer is simple, simple as CoreAnimation and View transforms.
We will simulate curtains rebound without any engine.
Look…
- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; firstCurtain = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame]; secondCurtain = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.frame]; //setup initial transfor of the curtains views firstCurtain.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0, -self.view.frame.size.height); secondCurtain.transform = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(0, self.view.frame.size.height); //colors firstCurtain.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor]; secondCurtain.backgroundColor = [UIColor blueColor]; upscale = 1.0f; // initial scale value numCloses = 10; // will shot 10 times [self.view addSubview:firstCurtain]; [self.view addSubview:secondCurtain]; [self _animateCurtainsClose]; // will start initial animation }

Custom UIButton without using any images
without comments 4,487 views
Many probably faced with the need to quickly create a control in mobile user interface. Consider the standard buttons UIButton. Basic control little suits demanding customer, and often the standard solution is stretching on the button bitmaps state. Stretched it a picture or entirely cut button – the decision requires additional time spent on user interface design. It would be good to have a universal control, with more visual features than the basic UIButton.

It will looks like this:
Let’s go to extend UITextView. The only thing we need is our fields array.

Few words about iOS game development / Main GameObjects
with one comment 3,197 views
In this article I want to focus on certain aspects of game development for iOS.
One of the most important moments – to select the game engine.
Let’s try to start with a game-platformer. We will address problems such as level creation, the kinematics of objects in the levels, rendering representations of physical entities, etc. I do not want to use something ready, but the detector from the collision bullet, and then only from time savings. As result of all articles will complete XCode project of the game.
So, guys main job is build factories. Yes, yes, factories of the objects in whole game world.
