[Foundation.Export("snapshotViewAfterScreenUpdates:")]
[ObjCRuntime.Introduced(ObjCRuntime.PlatformName.iOS, 7, 0, ObjCRuntime.PlatformArchitecture.All, null)]
public virtual UIKit.UIView SnapshotView (bool afterScreenUpdates);
abstract member SnapshotView : bool -> UIKit.UIView
override this.SnapshotView : bool -> UIKit.UIView

Parameters

afterScreenUpdates
Boolean

Boolean that indicates whether the snapshot should be taken subsequent to recent changes being incorporated.

Returns

A new view object that is based upon a snapshot of the rendered contents of the current view.

Attributes

Remarks

This method is faster than rendering a view into a bitmap context. Application developers can use this method to create a visual proxy for their view before performing animations on a complex view hierarchy.
