I have read several posts already. And almost everyone suggest using QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h
with layer.cornerRadius
I have tried this method and some more methods.
Well, everything works fine when an image doesn't move.
But in my project I always move my images. If I add corner radius or a shadow the image movement is no longer smooth. And it looks aweful!
That is the way I resize my image:
CGSize newSize = CGSizeMake(200*height/image.size.height, 280);
CGColorSpaceRef colorSpace = CGColorSpaceCreateDeviceRGB();
CGContextRef context = CGBitmapContextCreate(nil, newSize.width, newSize.height, 8, 0, colorSpace, kCGImageAlphaPremultipliedLast);
CGContextClearRect(context, CGRectMake(0, 0, newSize.width, newSize.height));
CGContextDrawImage(context, CGRectMake(0, 0, newSize.width, newSize.height), image.CGImage);
CGImageRef scaledImage = CGBitmapContextCreateImage(context);
CGColorSpaceRelease(colorSpace);
CGContextRelease(context);
UIImage *newImage = [UIImage imageWithCGImage: scaledImage];
CGImageRelease(scaledImage);
I would like to know a good way to resize my image, add shadow, corner radius and still have smooth movement of my image.
// Get your image somehow
UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"image.jpg"];
// Begin a new image that will be the new image with the rounded corners
// (here with the size of an UIImageView)
UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(imageView.bounds.size, NO, [UIScreen mainScreen].scale);
// Add a clip before drawing anything, in the shape of an rounded rect
[[UIBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:imageView.bounds
cornerRadius:10.0] addClip];
// Draw your image
[image drawInRect:imageView.bounds];
// Get the image, here setting the UIImageView image
imageView.image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
// Lets forget about that we were drawing
UIGraphicsEndImageContext();
Try moving with this code, as far as I can remember I used this a while back that makes an image with rounded corners that you can move around into the targets. But it seemed to scale fine...
