ios how to hide one uiview and push another uiview at the same position

Question

I want to set myview hidden and view visible, how can I do this. This is the code I got so far but it makes everything hidden.

CGRect frame = CGRectMake(185, 960, 768, 1004); 
HiUIView *view = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
view.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];

[self.myview addSubview:view];
[self.myview setHidden:YES];

Answer 1

You are adding a view inside another and then hide the second. The first is child of the second, so is hidden too.

You can try adding "view" in the parent of "myview".

Answer 2

why not put both views in a container? let the current vc's view be the container of your views.

Maybe you can do something like this:

UIView *view = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:self.myview.frame];
[self.view addSubView:self.myview];
[self.view addSubView:view];
self.myview.hidden = YES;

Answer 3

Try instead in your sample:

[self.myview setHidden:YES]; 

make

[self.myview setBackgroundColor: [UIColor clearColor]]; 

Answer 4

The problem in your code is that you are adding a view to myView and then hiding the parent view ie myview in your case ,Use this

UIView *_viewTmp = [[UIView alloc]initWithFrame:myview.frame];
[myview.superview addSubview:_viewTmp];
myview.hidden = YES;

I hope this will help.
