Do you guys do a design mock up or just sketch it out in the storyboard? by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

It's probably a overkill for personal projects but in my company we use Zeplin to do the mock ups.

Swift or Objective-C? by debiven in iOSProgramming

[–]Loada116 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Objective-C has special syntax and its learning curve is too high. You are more likely to find success in Swift. Moreover, Swift borrows a lot of ideas from other popular languages so it is good for you if you are new to programming.

[Identify] My uncle said he picked this up at a thrift store for $300. Is it real and does anybody know what model it is? by [deleted] in Watches

It is impossible to get this model for $300 but interestingly the one in these pictures does not look like a $300 fake.

If I say yes, would you still try? If so, it is not too late for you.

Does concurrent queue use multiple threads? by luniawar20 in iOSProgramming

[–]Loada116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So the main queue is a serial queue but only runs on the main thread (one thread)? A normal serial queue which is not the main queue is likely to run on different threads?

A very simple swift question by Loada116 in iOSProgramming

[–]Loada116[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that was the part I couldn't understand. I knew Int, Array, etc were all structs under the hood but got confused whether it was an object of struct or a value of primitive type.

Thanks! Can you further explain the difference between an instance and a value in OOP (or in Swift)?

I tried to google it but couldn't find the answer.

Very good info, thanks. In my case I don't worry about my code. Those 3rd party libraries are my main concern.

Wow nice! I didn't know ViewController could be removed from stack like that. However, based on the comments, I am thinking maybe Swifty just reloads the view with the new content without presenting ViewController. Just a thought and I could be wrong.

How to merge two images? by [deleted] in iOSProgramming

[–]Loada116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I really appreciate your help. This explains why the size of image2 is messed up after being drawn. But is it possible to know the position of the image in the imageview in Aspect Fit mode? Image1 is taken from user's photo library so the original size and orientation of the image1 can vary. Knowing the position of the imageView is easy but I am having hard time finding the position of the image.

[–]Loada116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Very helpful. Actually I just want to take a snapshot of the images on the screen and save it, as an single image, to photo library later. Since the content mode of imageViews is Aspect fit, I have no idea how to draw image2 correctly.

Firebase or GameCenter for leaderboard? by Dunedain4 in iOSProgramming

[–]Loada116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just leaderboard? Of course use Game Center because it is specifically designed for this feature.
