is it possible to create a custom ui progress view with a gradient from left to right?
I've tried it with the following code:
let gradientLayer = CAGradientLayer()
gradientLayer.frame = self.frame
gradientLayer.anchorPoint = CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0)
gradientLayer.position = CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0)
gradientLayer.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 0.0);
gradientLayer.endPoint = CGPoint(x: 1.0, y: 0.0);
gradientLayer.colors = [
UIColor.red,
UIColor.green
]
// Convert to UIImage
self.layer.insertSublayer(gradientLayer, at: 0)
self.progressTintColor = UIColor.clear
self.trackTintColor = UIColor.black
But unfortunately the gradient is not visible. Any other ideas?
George figured out a very clever method. If you want a more easy solution, open UIProgressView document, there is a property named progressImage.
so, i just make it work like this:
after that:
