Usage

Firstly, import NVActivityIndicatorView.

import NVActivityIndicatorView

Initialization

Then, there are two ways you can create NVActivityIndicatorView:

  • By storyboard, changing class of any UIView to NVActivityIndicatorView.

Note: Set Module to NVActivityIndicatorView.

  • By code, using initializer. All parameters other than frame are optional and NVActivityIndicatorView.DEFAULT_*  are used as default values.
NVActivityIndicatorView(frame: frame, type: type, color: color, padding: padding)

Control

Start animating.

activityIndicatorView.startAnimating()

Stop animating.

activityIndicatorView.stopAnimating()

Determine if it is animating.

animating = activityIndicatorView.isAnimating

Change properties

In storyboard, you can change all properties in Attributes inspector tab of Utilities panel.

Note: Use one of values (case-insensitive) in Animation types for Type Name.

All properties are public so you can change them after initializing.

Note: All changes must be made before calling startAnimating().
