Alert view

[kgDe35NjrC]

What would be the best way to make a card-like alert view? Should I subclass CardView?

[daniel-jonathan]

In general subclassing MaterialKit components is not necessary. The easiest way would be to use a CardView and set the appropriate properties. Something like this:

let cardView: CardView = CardView() cardView.titleLabel = UILabel() cardView.titleLabel!.text = "Use Google's location service?" // ... add styling

cardView.detailLabel = UILabel() cardView.detailLabel!.text = "Let Google help ... running." // ... add styling

// make flat buttons (disagree, agree) cardView.rightButtons = [disagree, agree]

When you do the positioning, MaterialLayout would make this easy.

When you do the depth, probably looking for .Depth5 cardView.shadowDepth = .Depth5

How do I actually turn this cardview into an alert? Do I make a UILaertVieeController and set its view to the cardview?

Here's my current UIAlertController code:

        let alert = UIAlertController(title: title, message: message, preferredStyle: .Alert)
        let action = UIAlertAction(title: "Dismiss", style: .Default, handler: nil)
        alert.addAction(action)
        presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)

I haven’t played with what you are trying to do enough to have an accurate answer. Are you required to use an AlertView?

Was going to open such a ticket. As you know, alerts are required in almost every app (logout prompts, single choice or multiple choice lists and so on) so it's great if you guys have that in mind

I will put it in upcoming :)
