UIAlertController custom font, size, color

Question

I am using new UIAlertController for showing alerts. I have this code:

// nil titles break alert interface on iOS 8.0, so we'll be using empty strings
UIAlertController *alert = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle: title == nil ? @"": title message: message preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];


UIAlertAction *defaultAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle: cancelButtonTitle style: UIAlertActionStyleCancel handler: nil];

[alert addAction: defaultAction];

UIViewController *rootViewController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController;
[rootViewController presentViewController:alert animated:YES completion:nil];

Now I want to change title and message font, color, size and so. What's best way to do this?

Edit: I should insert whole code. I created category for UIView that I could show right alert for iOS version.

@implementation UIView (AlertCompatibility)

+( void )showSimpleAlertWithTitle:( NSString * )title
                          message:( NSString * )message
                cancelButtonTitle:( NSString * )cancelButtonTitle
{
    float iOSVersion = [[UIDevice currentDevice].systemVersion floatValue];
    if (iOSVersion < 8.0f)
    {
        UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle: title
                                                        message: message
                                                       delegate: nil
                                              cancelButtonTitle: cancelButtonTitle
                                              otherButtonTitles: nil];
        [alert show];
    }
    else
    {
        // nil titles break alert interface on iOS 8.0, so we'll be using empty strings
        UIAlertController *alert = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle: title == nil ? @"": title
                                                                       message: message
                                                                preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyleAlert];


        UIAlertAction *defaultAction = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle: cancelButtonTitle
                                                                style: UIAlertActionStyleCancel
                                                              handler: nil];

        [alert addAction: defaultAction];

        UIViewController *rootViewController = [UIApplication sharedApplication].keyWindow.rootViewController;
        [rootViewController presentViewController:alert animated:YES completion:nil];
    }
}

Answer 1

Not sure if this is against private APIs/properties but using KVC works for me on ios8

UIAlertController *alertVC = [UIAlertController alertControllerWithTitle:@"Dont care what goes here, since we're about to change below" message:@"" preferredStyle:UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet];
NSMutableAttributedString *hogan = [[NSMutableAttributedString alloc] initWithString:@"Presenting the great... Hulk Hogan!"];
[hogan addAttribute:NSFontAttributeName
              value:[UIFont systemFontOfSize:50.0]
              range:NSMakeRange(24, 11)];
[alertVC setValue:hogan forKey:@"attributedTitle"];



UIAlertAction *button = [UIAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Label text" 
                                        style:UIAlertActionStyleDefault
                                        handler:^(UIAlertAction *action){
                                                    //add code to make something happen once tapped
}];
UIImage *accessoryImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"someImage"];
[button setValue:accessoryImage forKey:@"image"];

For the record, it is possible to change alert action's font as well, using those private APIs. Again, it may get you app rejected, I have not yet tried to submit such code.

let alert = UIAlertController(title: nil, message: nil, preferredStyle: .ActionSheet)

let action = UIAlertAction(title: "Some title", style: .Default, handler: nil)
let attributedText = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Some title")

let range = NSRange(location: 0, length: attributedText.length)
attributedText.addAttribute(NSKernAttributeName, value: 1.5, range: range)
attributedText.addAttribute(NSFontAttributeName, value: UIFont(name: "ProximaNova-Semibold", size: 20.0)!, range: range)

alert.addAction(action)

presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)

// this has to be set after presenting the alert, otherwise the internal property __representer is nil
guard let label = action.valueForKey("__representer")?.valueForKey("label") as? UILabel else { return }
label.attributedText = attributedText

For Swift 4.2 in XCode 10 and up the last 2 lines are now:

guard let label = (action!.value(forKey: "__representer")as? NSObject)?.value(forKey: "label") as? UILabel else { return }
        label.attributedText = attributedText

Answer 2

You can change the button color by applying a tint color to an UIAlertController.

On iOS 9, if the window tint color was set to a custom color, you have to apply the tint color right after presenting the alert. Otherwise the tint color will be reset to your custom window tint color.

// In your AppDelegate for example:
window?.tintColor = UIColor.redColor()

// Elsewhere in the App:
let alertVC = UIAlertController(title: "Title", message: "message", preferredStyle: .Alert)
alertVC.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .Cancel, handler: nil))
alertVC.addAction(UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .Default, handler: nil))

// Works on iOS 8, but not on iOS 9
// On iOS 9 the button color will be red
alertVC.view.tintColor = UIColor.greenColor()

self.presentViewController(alert, animated: true, completion: nil)

// Necessary to apply tint on iOS 9
alertVC.view.tintColor = UIColor.greenColor()

Answer 3

You can change color of button text using this code:

alertC.view.tintColor = your color;

Maybe this will help you.

Answer 4

In Xcode 8 Swift 3.0

@IBAction func touchUpInside(_ sender: UIButton) {

    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "", message: "", preferredStyle: .alert)

    //to change font of title and message.
    let titleFont = [NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "ArialHebrew-Bold", size: 18.0)!]
    let messageFont = [NSFontAttributeName: UIFont(name: "Avenir-Roman", size: 12.0)!]

    let titleAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Title Here", attributes: titleFont)
    let messageAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Message Here", attributes: messageFont)

    alertController.setValue(titleAttrString, forKey: "attributedTitle")
    alertController.setValue(messageAttrString, forKey: "attributedMessage")

    let action1 = UIAlertAction(title: "Action 1", style: .default) { (action) in
        print("\(action.title)")
    }

    let action2 = UIAlertAction(title: "Action 2", style: .default) { (action) in
        print("\(action.title)")
    }

    let action3 = UIAlertAction(title: "Action 3", style: .default) { (action) in
        print("\(action.title)")
    }

    let okAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default) { (action) in
        print("\(action.title)")
    }

    alertController.addAction(action1)
    alertController.addAction(action2)
    alertController.addAction(action3)
    alertController.addAction(okAction)

    alertController.view.tintColor = UIColor.blue
    alertController.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.black
    alertController.view.layer.cornerRadius = 40

    present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

}

Output

Answer 5

A Swift translation of the @dupuis2387 answer. Worked out the syntax to set the UIAlertController title's color and font via KVC using the attributedTitle key.

let message = "Some message goes here."
let alertController = UIAlertController(
    title: "", // This gets overridden below.
    message: message,
    preferredStyle: .Alert
)
let okAction = UIAlertAction(title: "OK", style: .Cancel) { _ -> Void in
}
alertController.addAction(okAction)

let fontAwesomeHeart = "\u{f004}"
let fontAwesomeFont = UIFont(name: "FontAwesome", size: 17)!
let customTitle:NSString = "I \(fontAwesomeHeart) Swift" // Use NSString, which lets you call rangeOfString()
let systemBoldAttributes:[String : AnyObject] = [ 
    // setting the attributed title wipes out the default bold font,
    // so we need to reconstruct it.
    NSFontAttributeName : UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(17)
]
let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: customTitle as String, attributes:systemBoldAttributes)
let fontAwesomeAttributes = [
    NSFontAttributeName: fontAwesomeFont,
    NSForegroundColorAttributeName : UIColor.redColor()
]
let matchRange = customTitle.rangeOfString(fontAwesomeHeart)
attributedString.addAttributes(fontAwesomeAttributes, range: matchRange)
alertController.setValue(attributedString, forKey: "attributedTitle")

self.presentViewController(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

Answer 6

Swift 5 and 5.1. Create a separate file and put UIAlertController Customization code there

import Foundation
import  UIKit

extension UIAlertController {

  //Set background color of UIAlertController
  func setBackgroudColor(color: UIColor) {
    if let bgView = self.view.subviews.first,
      let groupView = bgView.subviews.first,
      let contentView = groupView.subviews.first {
      contentView.backgroundColor = color
    }
  }

  //Set title font and title color
  func setTitle(font: UIFont?, color: UIColor?) {
    guard let title = self.title else { return }
    let attributeString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: title)//1
    if let titleFont = font {
      attributeString.addAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.font : titleFont],//2
        range: NSMakeRange(0, title.utf8.count))
    }
    if let titleColor = color {
      attributeString.addAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : titleColor],//3
        range: NSMakeRange(0, title.utf8.count))
    }
    self.setValue(attributeString, forKey: "attributedTitle")//4
  }

  //Set message font and message color
  func setMessage(font: UIFont?, color: UIColor?) {
    guard let title = self.message else {
      return
    }
    let attributedString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: title)
    if let titleFont = font {
      attributedString.addAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.font : titleFont], range: NSMakeRange(0, title.utf8.count))
    }
    if let titleColor = color {
      attributedString.addAttributes([NSAttributedString.Key.foregroundColor : titleColor], range: NSMakeRange(0, title.utf8.count))
    }
    self.setValue(attributedString, forKey: "attributedMessage")//4
  }

  //Set tint color of UIAlertController
  func setTint(color: UIColor) {
    self.view.tintColor = color
  }
}

Now On any action Show Alert

  func tapShowAlert(sender: UIButton) {
    let alertController = UIAlertController(title: "Alert!!", message: "This is custom alert message", preferredStyle: .alert)
    // Change font and color of title
    alertController.setTitle(font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 26), color: UIColor.yellow)
    // Change font and color of message
    alertController.setMessage(font: UIFont(name: "AvenirNextCondensed-HeavyItalic", size: 18), color: UIColor.red)
    // Change background color of UIAlertController
    alertController.setBackgroudColor(color: UIColor.black)
    let actnOk = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default, handler: nil)
    let actnCancel = UIAlertAction(title: "Cancel", style: .default, handler: nil)
    alertController.addAction(actnOk)
    alertController.addAction(actnCancel)
    self.present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)
  }

Answer 7

Use UIAppearance protocol. Example for setting a font - create a category to extend UILabel:

@interface UILabel (FontAppearance)
@property (nonatomic, copy) UIFont * appearanceFont UI_APPEARANCE_SELECTOR;
@end


@implementation UILabel (FontAppearance)

-(void)setAppearanceFont:(UIFont *)font {
    if (font)
        [self setFont:font];
}

-(UIFont *)appearanceFont {
    return self.font;
}

@end

And its usage:

UILabel * appearanceLabel = [UILabel appearanceWhenContainedIn:UIAlertController.class, nil];
[appearanceLabel setAppearanceFont:[UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:10]]; //for example

Tested and working with style UIAlertControllerStyleActionSheet, but I guess it will work with UIAlertControllerStyleAlert too.

P.S. Better check for class availability instead of iOS version:

if ([UIAlertController class]) {
    // UIAlertController code (iOS 8)
} else {
    // UIAlertView code (pre iOS 8)
}

Answer 8

Use UIAppearance protocol. Do more hacks with appearanceFont to change font for UIAlertAction.

Create a category for UILabel

UILabel+FontAppearance.h

@interface UILabel (FontAppearance)

@property (nonatomic, copy) UIFont * appearanceFont UI_APPEARANCE_SELECTOR;

@end

UILabel+FontAppearance.m

@implementation UILabel (FontAppearance)

- (void)setAppearanceFont:(UIFont *)font
{
    if (self.tag == 1001) {
        return;
    }

    BOOL isBold = (self.font.fontDescriptor.symbolicTraits & UIFontDescriptorTraitBold);
    const CGFloat* colors = CGColorGetComponents(self.textColor.CGColor);

    if (self.font.pointSize == 14) {
        // set font for UIAlertController title
        self.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];
    } else if (self.font.pointSize == 13) {
        // set font for UIAlertController message
        self.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:11];
    } else if (isBold) {
        // set font for UIAlertAction with UIAlertActionStyleCancel
        self.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:12];
    } else if ((*colors) == 1) {
        // set font for UIAlertAction with UIAlertActionStyleDestructive
        self.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:13];
    } else {
        // set font for UIAlertAction with UIAlertActionStyleDefault
        self.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14];
    }
    self.tag = 1001;
}

- (UIFont *)appearanceFont
{
    return self.font;
}

@end

Usage:

add

[[UILabel appearanceWhenContainedIn:UIAlertController.class, nil] setAppearanceFont:nil];

in AppDelegate.m to make it work for all UIAlertController.

Answer 9

I'm using it.

[[UIView appearanceWhenContainedIn:[UIAlertController class], nil] setTintColor:[UIColor blueColor]];

Add one line (AppDelegate) and works for all UIAlertController.

Answer 10

Swift 4

Example of custom font on the title. Same things for other components such as message or actions.

    let titleAttributed = NSMutableAttributedString(
            string: Constant.Strings.cancelAbsence, 
            attributes: [NSAttributedStringKey.font:UIFont(name:"FONT_NAME",size: FONT_SIZE)]
    )

    let alertController = UIAlertController(
        title: "",
        message: "",
        preferredStyle: UIAlertControllerStyle.YOUR_STYLE
    )

    alertController.setValue(titleAttributed, forKey : "attributedTitle")
    present(alertController, animated: true, completion: nil)

Answer 11

You can use an external library like PMAlertController without using workaround, where you can substitute Apple's uncustomizable UIAlertController with a super customizable alert.

Compatible with Xcode 8, Swift 3 and Objective-C

Features:

• [x] Header View
• [x] Header Image (Optional)
• [x] Title
• [x] Description message
• [x] Customizations: fonts, colors, dimensions & more
• [x] 1, 2 buttons (horizontally) or 3+ buttons (vertically)
• [x] Closure when a button is pressed
• [x] Text Fields support
• [x] Similar implementation to UIAlertController
• [x] Cocoapods
• [x] Carthage
• [x] Animation with UIKit Dynamics
• [x] Objective-C compatibility
• [x] Swift 2.3 & Swift 3 support

Answer 12

Here is an extension for Swift 4.1 and Xcode 9.4.1:

extension UIAlertController{

func addColorInTitleAndMessage(color:UIColor,titleFontSize:CGFloat = 18, messageFontSize:CGFloat = 13){

    let attributesTitle = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: color, NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: titleFontSize)]
    let attributesMessage = [NSAttributedStringKey.foregroundColor: color, NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: messageFontSize)]
    let attributedTitleText = NSAttributedString(string: self.title ?? "", attributes: attributesTitle)
    let attributedMessageText = NSAttributedString(string: self.message ?? "", attributes: attributesMessage)

    self.setValue(attributedTitleText, forKey: "attributedTitle")
    self.setValue(attributedMessageText, forKey: "attributedMessage")

}}

Answer 13

I just completed a replacement for UIAlertController. This is the only sensible way to go, I think:

---

Old

Here's my method in Swift which mashes up a lot of information from answers here

func changeAlert(alert: UIAlertController, backgroundColor: UIColor, textColor: UIColor, buttonColor: UIColor?) {
    let view = alert.view.firstSubview().firstSubview()
    view.backgroundColor = backgroundColor
    view.layer.cornerRadius = 10.0

    // set color to UILabel font
    setSubviewLabelsToTextColor(textColor, view: view)

    // set font to alert via KVC, otherwise it'll get overwritten
    let titleAttributed = NSMutableAttributedString(
        string: alert.title!,
        attributes: [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont.boldSystemFontOfSize(17)])
    alert.setValue(titleAttributed, forKey: "attributedTitle")


    let messageAttributed = NSMutableAttributedString(
        string: alert.message!,
        attributes: [NSFontAttributeName:UIFont.systemFontOfSize(13)])
    alert.setValue(messageAttributed, forKey: "attributedMessage")


    // set the buttons to non-blue, if we have buttons
    if let buttonColor = buttonColor {
        alert.view.tintColor = buttonColor
    }
}

func setSubviewLabelsToTextColor(textColor: UIColor, view:UIView) {
    for subview in view.subviews {
        if let label = subview as? UILabel {
            label.textColor = textColor
        } else {
            setSubviewLabelsToTextColor(textColor, view: subview)
        }
    }
}

This works in some situations perfectly, and in others it's a total fail (the tint colors do not show as expected).

Answer 14

In Swift 4.1 and Xcode 10

//Displaying alert with multiple actions and custom font ans size
let alert = UIAlertController(title: "", message: "", preferredStyle: .alert)

let titFont = [NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont(name: "ArialHebrew-Bold", size: 15.0)!]
let msgFont = [NSAttributedStringKey.font: UIFont(name: "Avenir-Roman", size: 13.0)!]

let titAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Title Here", attributes: titFont)
let msgAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "Message Here", attributes: msgFont)

alert.setValue(titAttrString, forKey: "attributedTitle")
alert.setValue(msgAttrString, forKey: "attributedMessage")

let action1 = UIAlertAction(title: "Action 1", style: .default) { (action) in
    print("\(String(describing: action.title))")
}

let action2 = UIAlertAction(title: "Action 2", style: .default) { (action) in
    print("\(String(describing: action.title))")
}

let okAction = UIAlertAction(title: "Ok", style: .default) { (action) in
    print("\(String(describing: action.title))")
}
alert.addAction(action1)
alert.addAction(action2)
alert.addAction(okAction)

alert.view.tintColor = UIColor.blue
alert.view.layer.cornerRadius = 40
// //If required background colour 
// alert.view.backgroundColor = UIColor.white

DispatchQueue.main.async(execute: {
    self.present(alert, animated: true)
})

Answer 15

There is a problem with setting the tint color on the view after presenting; even if you do it in the completion block of presentViewController:animated:completion:, it causes a flicker effect on the color of the button titles. This is sloppy, unprofessional and completely unacceptable.

Other solutions presented depend on the view hierarchy remaining static, something that Apple is loathe to do. Expect those solutions to fail in future releases of iOS.

The one sure-fire way to solve this problem and to do it everywhere, is via adding a category to UIAlertController and swizzling the viewWillAppear.

The header:

//
//  UIAlertController+iOS9TintFix.h
//
//  Created by Flor, Daniel J on 11/2/15.
//

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface UIAlertController (iOS9TintFix)

+ (void)tintFix;

- (void)swizzledViewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated;

@end

The implementation:

//
//  UIAlertController+iOS9TintFix.m
//
//  Created by Flor, Daniel J on 11/2/15.
//

#import "UIAlertController+iOS9TintFix.h"
#import <objc/runtime.h>

@implementation UIAlertController (iOS9TintFix)

+ (void)tintFix {
    static dispatch_once_t onceToken;
    dispatch_once(&onceToken, ^{
        Method method  = class_getInstanceMethod(self, @selector(viewWillAppear:));
        Method swizzle = class_getInstanceMethod(self, @selector(swizzledViewWillAppear:));
        method_exchangeImplementations(method, swizzle);});
}

- (void)swizzledViewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [self swizzledViewWillAppear:animated];
    for (UIView *view in self.view.subviews) {
        if (view.tintColor == self.view.tintColor) {
            //only do those that match the main view, so we don't strip the red-tint from destructive buttons.
            self.view.tintColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.0 green:122.0/255.0 blue:1.0 alpha:1.0];
            [view setNeedsDisplay];
        }
    }
}

@end

Add a .pch (precompiled header) to your project and include the category:

#import "UIAlertController+iOS9TintFix.h"

Make sure you register your pch in the project properly, and it will include the category methods in every class that uses the UIAlertController.

Then, in your app delegates didFinishLaunchingWithOptions method, import your category and call

[UIAlertController tintFix];

and it will automatically propagate to every single instance of UIAlertController within your app, whether launched by your code or anyone else's.

This solution works for both iOS 8.X and iOS 9.X and lacks the flicker of the tint change post-presentation approach. It is also completely agnostic with respect to the view hierarchy of the sub-views of the UIAlertController.

Happy hacking!

Answer 16

Please find this category. I am able to change FONT and Color of UIAlertAction and UIAlertController.

Use:

UILabel * appearanceLabel = [UILabel appearanceWhenContainedIn:UIAlertController.class, nil];
[appearanceLabel setAppearanceFont:yourDesireFont]];

Answer 18

For iOS 9.0 and above use this code in app delegate

[[UIView appearanceWhenContainedInInstancesOfClasses:@[[UIAlertController class]]] setTintColor:[UIColor redColor]];

Answer 19

I work for Urban Outfitters. We have an open source pod, URBNAlert, that we used in all of our apps. It's based off of UIAlertController, but is highly customizable.

Source is here: https://github.com/urbn/URBNAlert

Or simply install by the pod by placing URBNAlert in your Podfile

Heres some sample code:

URBNAlertViewController *uac = [[URBNAlertViewController alloc] initWithTitle:@"The Title of my message can be up to 2 lines long. It wraps and centers." message:@"And the message that is a bunch of text. And the message that is a bunch of text. And the message that is a bunch of text."];

// You can customize style elements per alert as well. These will override the global style just for this alert.
uac.alertStyler.blurTintColor = [[UIColor orangeColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.4];
uac.alertStyler.backgroundColor = [UIColor orangeColor];
uac.alertStyler.textFieldEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0, 15.0, 0.0, 15.0);
uac.alertStyler.titleColor = [UIColor purpleColor];
uac.alertStyler.titleFont = [UIFont fontWithName:@"Chalkduster" size:30];
uac.alertStyler.messageColor = [UIColor blackColor];
uac.alertStyler.alertMinWidth = @150;
uac.alertStyler.alertMaxWidth = @200;
// many more styling options available 

[uac addAction:[URBNAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Ok" actionType:URBNAlertActionTypeNormal actionCompleted:^(URBNAlertAction *action) {
      // Do something
}]];

[uac addAction:[URBNAlertAction actionWithTitle:@"Cancel" actionType:URBNAlertActionTypeCancel actionCompleted:^(URBNAlertAction *action) {
      // Do something
}]];

[uac show];

Answer 20

To change the color of one button like CANCEL to the red color you can use this style property called UIAlertActionStyle.destructive :

let prompt = UIAlertController.init(title: "Reset Password", message: "Enter Your E-mail :", preferredStyle: .alert)
        let okAction = UIAlertAction.init(title: "Submit", style: .default) { (action) in
              //your code
}

let cancelAction = UIAlertAction.init(title: "Cancel", style: UIAlertActionStyle.destructive) { (action) in

Swift 5.0

let titleAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "This is a title", attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont(name: "CustomFontName", size: 17) as Any])
let messageAttrString = NSMutableAttributedString(string: "This is a message", attributes: [NSAttributedString.Key.font: UIFont(name: "CustomFontName", size: 13) as Any])

alertController.setValue(titleAttrString, forKey: "attributedTitle")
alertController.setValue(messageAttrString, forKey: "attributedMessage")

Answer 22

A bit clunky, but this works for me right now to set background and text colors. I found it here.

UIView * firstView = alertController.view.subviews.firstObject;
    UIView * nextView = firstView.subviews.firstObject;
    nextView.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor];

I have created one method objective-C

-(void)customAlertTitle:(NSString*)title message:(NSString*)message{
UIAlertView *alertView = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:nil delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"NO" otherButtonTitles:@"YES", nil];
UIView *subView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 80)];

UILabel *titleLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 270, 50)];
titleLabel.text = title;
titleLabel.font = [UIFont boldSystemFontOfSize:20];
titleLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
titleLabel.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
titleLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;

[subView addSubview:titleLabel];

UILabel *messageLabel = [[UILabel alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 30, 270, 50)];
messageLabel.text = message;
messageLabel.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:18];
messageLabel.numberOfLines = 2;
messageLabel.textColor = [UIColor redColor];
messageLabel.textAlignment = NSTextAlignmentCenter;

[subView addSubview:messageLabel];

[alertView setValue:subView forKey:@"accessoryView"];
[alertView show];
}

Code wokring perfectly on Xcode 8.3.1. You can customise according to requirement.

I just use this kind of demand, seemingly and system, details are slightly different, so we are ... OC realized Alert and Sheet popup window encapsulation.

Often encountered in daily development need to add a figure to Alert or change a button color, such as "simple" demand, today brings a and system components of highly similar and can fully meet the demand of customized packaging components.

Answer 25

You can use the following syntax without any private API.

alert.view.tintColor = alert.view.tintColor = UIColor.green
alert.setTitle(font: UIFont.boldSystemFont(ofSize: 26), color: UIColor.darkGray)
alert.setMessage(font: UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 26), color: UIColor.darkGray)
