Adding loading animation​

You can set a default loading animation while the story widget is loading, here is the example code:

storifyMeWidget.setWidgetLoadingAnimationStyle(enabled: true)

and to set your custom loading view please use:

storifyMeWidget.setWidgetLoadingAnimationStyle(type: .custom(view: YourLoadingAnimationView), enabled: true)

Custom font​

Download the font, it should be in .ttf format, maybe some others will do. Place it somewhere in the project you want.

In Info.plist you need to set

  • Source code
<dict>
....
<key>UIAppFonts</key>
<array>
<string>Finger Paint.ttf</string>
</array>
....
  • Regular view

Opening story animation​

Stories presenting can be customized by setting StorifyMeStoryViewerOptions.

The default behavior is listed below and can be easily customized.

storifyMeWidget.setStoryViewerOptions(
                options: StorifyMeStoryViewerOptions(
                    thumbnailItemOpeningAnimationDuration: 0.2,
                    thumbnailItemClosingAnimationDuration: 0.2,
                    storyPreviewerOpeningAnimationDuration: 0.2,
                    storyPreviewerClosingAnimationDuration: 0.2,
                    enabled: true))

If for some reason you want to disable the animations, just use the code below.

storifyMeWidget.setStoryViewerOptions(
