Poptip and subviews hierarchy

[pgawlowski]

Everything seems to be fine until you try to show tip over view that is in more complex view hierarchy.

Is it possible to ommit in: parameter and display it on top of view hierarchy but snapped to target using absolute coordinates?

The poptip is just a basic UIView in the end, it's added as a subview of the in: parameter. If you want to move it above your hierarchy, just provide the main superview as in: and adjust the from: to the absolute coordinates

Just figured it out. My question is why it is not using global coordinates and
UIApplication.shared.keyWindow by default? In that case method will be simpler (just provide starting rect) as well as you'll be sure that pop will be always visible.

I wanted it to behave like a common UIView, but I see your point. It might be worth having another overload for the show method that places it in the key window in an absolute position. 🤔

Do you have any additional info about snapping this kind of UIView?

I mean I'm adding it on top of everything, however I would like to preserve position change e.x when keyboard slides out to move pop with the whole view. Right now it is kind of broken and I'm not very used to work with this kind of transitions and changes.

Any hints?
