How to add a UIPopOverController dim background in iOS 9. (iPad)

Question

Before iOS 9 apple iPad popOver were shown with a dim background. But In iOS 9 when the popOver is shown, it never dim the background view. I want to dim the background view in iOS 9 as well. Any Solution.

Answer 1

What did you try already and how does your code look?

I would create a full-screen UIView with a translucent background color and alpha 0. Before presenting the popover, set it's alpha to 1. After the popover is dismissed, set it's alpha back to 0 to let it disappear.

See here for creating the view: How do I make a semi-transparent view layer above a current view?

You can place the view inside of an animation block to animate the change.
