Usage

Using ILABPopOver is a fairly simple and straight forward affair. It works in two modes: as a modal dialog and as a popover similar to UIPopOverController or UIMenuController.

It is composed of two classes, the ILABPopOverViewController and the ILABPopOverView.

The ILABPopOverViewController is responsible for displaying the pop over view, while the ILABPopOverView simply renders the popup "balloon".

Using as Dialog

In dialog mode, the pop over will display your view in a modal popup:

- (IBAction)showDialogPopOver:(id)sender {
    [[ILABPopOverViewController sharedDialog] showAsDialog:dialogPopupView];
}

In the above example, the dialogPopupView is a UIView instance that you want to display as the main content view of your popup.

To dismiss the popup:

- (IBAction)dismissDialogTouched:(id)sender {
    [[ILABPopOverViewController sharedDialog] dismiss:^{
        NSLog(@"DISMISSED");
    }];
}

Using as Pop Over

In pop over mode, your view will be presented to the user as a balloon pop up.

- (IBAction)showPopOver:(id)sender {
    [[ILABPopOverViewController sharedPopOver] show:popupView fromView:(UIView *)sender];
}

In the above example popupView is the UIView instance you want to display as the main content view of the pop up.

To dismiss the popup:

- (IBAction)dismissDialogTouched:(id)sender {
    [[ILABPopOverViewController sharedDialog] dismiss:^{
        NSLog(@"DISMISSED");
    }];
}

Shared Instances

The ILABPopOverViewController has two static shared instances to simplify usage.

The sharedDialog static instance is the view controller for displaying an pop over as a dialog.

The sharedPopOver static instance is the view controller for displaying all other pop overs.

You should configure these instances on app launch to match whatever styles and behaviors are appropriate for your app.
