Dismiss Messages View Controller

I have an iMessage Extension in swift that is in expanded presentationStlye when a user taps a button. Once this button is tapped, it should dismiss the view entirely or at least return to compact mode. I am not sure what is wrong. Here is didTransition being called from my button:

self.didTransition(to: MSMessagesAppPresentationStyle.compact)

and the action: 

override func didTransition(to presentationStyle: MSMessagesAppPresentationStyle) {

    guard presentationStyle == .expanded else { return }
    self.dismiss(animated: true) {

    }
}

But this is not working. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Solution

  • Actually the right func to call is that one :

    requestPresentationStyle(MSMessagesAppPresentationStyle)

    You can call it like this in your MSMessageAppViewController :

    self.requestPresentationStyle(.compact)

    You don't need to override anything ;) Hope this will help you!

    Note: have a look to the documentation here: https://developer.apple.com/reference/messages/msmessagesappviewcontroller

    It will help you a lot!
