show in center of parent view

[uranpro]

• (void)show {
  UIView *sv = [self.view superview];
  self.view.center = CGPointMake(self.view.center.x, sv.bounds.origin.y + sv.bounds.size.height / 2);

  [__view show];
  }

You can do this yourself - if you look there is a "center" property that you can set before you "show".

[uranpro]

yes, but this property not used.

[dhoerl]

Ah, now I get it. Its used once at initialization time, but if the
superview changes size then it's never updated or changed. If the
setCenter: method were to change the center point, that would probably
suffice to meet your needs.

I just added this to my fork and tested it.

• (void)setCenter:(CGPoint)pt
  {
  center = pt;

  if(__view) __view.center = center;
  }

I was having issues with my HUD not appearing in the center on the iPad...

I took uranpro's lead and revised my show method with the following which fixed my issue...

- (void)show {
    UIView *sv = [self.view superview];
    self.view.center = CGPointMake(sv.bounds.origin.x + sv.bounds.size.width/2, sv.bounds.origin.y + sv.bounds.size.height/2);
    [__view show];
}

I added "autocenter" property in my fork =)

Understood, but making the center property settable means that you can
set it elsewhere. The way you have this now, if you ever want it
somewhere besides the center, there is no way to set it. It always has
to be in the center.

You are correct, but for this app that is how we always want it to appear.
