convertPoint,convertRect，convertPoint:toLayer:系列函数（未完）

背景知识

Every UIView has its own coordinates system. 

convertPoint:toView: allows the developer to take a point in one view and convert the point to another view coordinate system.

Example:

view1 contains view2. The top left corner of view2 is located at view1 point (10,10), or better to say view2.frame.orgin = {10,10}. 

That {10,10} is based in the view1 coordinate system. So far so good.

The user touches the view2 at point {20,20} inside the view2. Now those coordinates are in the view2 coordinate system.

You can now use covertPoint:toView: to convert {20,20} into the coordinate system of view1. touchPoint = {20,20}

CGPoint pointInView1Coords = [view2 convertPoint:touchPoint toView:view1];

So now pointInView1Coords should be {30,30} in the view1 coordinate systems. 

Now that was just simple math on this example, but there are all sorts of things that contribute to the conversion. 

Transforms and scaling come to mind.

Read about UIView frame, bounds, and center. They are all related and they deal with coordinate systems for a view. 

Its confusing until you start doing stuff with them. 

Remember this frame and center are in the parent's coordinate system. 

Bounds is in the view's coordinate system.

各函数简介

// 将像素point由point所在视图转换到目标视图view中，返回在目标视图view中的像素值

- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)point toView:(UIView *)view;

// 将像素point从view中转换到当前视图中，返回在当前视图中的位置

- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)point fromView:(UIView *)view;

// 将rect由rect所在视图转换到目标视图view中，返回在目标视图view中的rect

- (CGRect)convertRect:(CGRect)rect toView:(UIView *)view;

// 将rect从view中转换到当前视图中，返回在当前视图中的rect

- (CGRect)convertRect:(CGRect)rect fromView:(UIView *)view;

// Converts the point from the receiver’s coordinate system to the specified layer’s coordinate system.

- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)aPoint toLayer:(CALayer *)layer

// Converts the point from the specified layer’s coordinate system to the receiver’s coordinate system.

- (CGPoint)convertPoint:(CGPoint)aPoint fromLayer:(CALayer *)layer

例 把 UITableViewCell 中的 subview(btn) 的 frame 转换 到  controllerA 中

// controllerA 中有一个UITableView, UITableView里有多行UITableVieCell，cell上放有一个button

// 在controllerA中实现:

CGRect rc = [cell convertRect:cell.btn.frame toView:self.view];

或

CGRect rc = [self.view convertRect:cell.btn.frame fromView:cell];

// 此rc为btn在controllerA中的rect

或当已知btn时：

CGRect rc = [btn.superview convertRect:btn.frame toView:self.view];

或

CGRect rc = [self.view convertRect:btn.frame fromView:btn.superview];
