UIPopoverBackgroundView

I found my popover’s going to iOS 7 didn’t look so great. I searched around and posts were pointing to subclassing the abstract UIPopoverBackgroundView class.

I found GIKPopoverBackgroundView and the demo app for it looked good.

It was fairly easy to use –

1. Copy GIKPopoverBackgroundView.h/.m into my project
2. Copy the images from the images folder into my project
3. Import the GIKPopoverBackgroundView.h into the class I want to use it in.
4. Set the background view class on my UIPopoverController (below)

myPOController.popoverBackgroundViewClass = [GIKPopoverBackgroundView class];
