UIVisualEffectView in iOS 10

Question

I am presenting a UIViewController that contains a UIVisualEffectView as follows:

-(void)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView didSelectItemAtInd         


        

Answer 1

Code below blur parent view controller when ViewController presented. Tested on both iOS9 and 10.

@interface ViewController () 

@property (nonatomic) UIVisualEffectView *blurView;

@end


@implementation ViewController

- (instancetype)init
{
    self = [super init];
    if (!self)
        return nil;

    self.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationOverCurrentContext;
    self.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleCrossDissolve;
    self.transitioningDelegate = self;

    return self;
}

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];

    self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
    self.blurView = [UIVisualEffectView new];
    [self.view addSubview:self.blurView];
    self.blurView.frame = self.view.bounds;
}

- (id )animationControllerForPresentedController:(UIViewController *)presented
                                                                       presentingController:(UIViewController *)presenting
                                                                   sourceController:(UIViewController *)source
{
    return self;
}

-(NSTimeInterval)transitionDuration:(id)transitionContext
{
    return 0.3;
}

-(void)animateTransition:(id)transitionContext
{
    UIView *container = [transitionContext containerView];

    [container addSubview:self.view];

    self.blurView.effect = nil;

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3 animations:^{
        self.blurView.effect = [UIBlurEffect effectWithStyle:UIBlurEffectStyleDark];
    } completion:^(BOOL finished) {
        [transitionContext completeTransition:finished];
    }];
}

@end
