View and customize the contents of asset catalogs using three main areas:
查看和自定义asset catalogs的内容使用以下三个主要区域:
-
Set list: See a list of all image sets, app icon sets, and image launch sets in the selected asset catalog.
集合列表:查看在asset catalog中的所有列表,包括所有图片集, 应用图标集以及启动图片集。
-
Set viewer: View the individual image representations for the selected set.
查看设置区:查看所选集合的所有图片尺寸。
-
Set Attributes inspector: Depending on what’s selected in the Set viewer, you can view and edit image attributes. Editable attributes include a set’s name, image types, template setting, and supported devices, size classes, and iOS versions. You can view the properties of an image including name, size, color space, as well as others.
设置属性检查器:根据查看设置区的选择,你可以查看和编辑图片属性。 可编辑的属性包括一个集合的名称,图片类型,模板设置以及所支持的设备,各种尺寸类(size classes)和iOS版本等。 你还可以查看选中图片的所有属性信息,包括图片名,尺寸,色彩空间(color space)等等。
Each set in an asset catalog has a name. You can use that name to programmatically load any individual image contained in the set. To load an image, call the platform specific class method, passing in the name of the set that contains the image. The OS will load the image from the set that is most appropriate for the current scale factor. The platform method for iOS is imageNamed:
. For OS X the platform method is imageNamed:
asset catalog中的每个集合都有一个名字。你可以使用那个名字通过编程加载任何一张集合中的图片。 要想加载一张图片,需要调用平台指定的类方法,把集合的名字作为参数传进去。 OS(操作系统) 会从集合加载最适合当前缩放因子的图片。 iOS 的平台方法是imageNamed: 。 OS X 的平台方法是imageNamed:
Xcode 6 provides different functionality for asset catalogs depending on the deployment target for your project:
Xcode 6 根据项目不同的部署目标(deployment target)为 asset catalogs 提供了不同的功能:
-
For all projects, individual images can be loaded using set names.
所有项目,可以用集合名字加载里面的任何图片。
-
For projects with a deployment target of at least iOS 7 or OS X 10.9, Xcode compiles your asset catalogs into a runtime binary file format that reduces the download time for your app.
对于iOS 7 或 OS X 10.9以上(包括)的项目,Xcode会将asset catalogs编译进一个运行二进制格式,这样可以减少应用程序的下载时间。
Each asset catalog in Xcode has a corresponding folder in the Finder, with an .xcassets extension, and subfolders for each set. Each set folder in turn contains its image representations, along with a Contents.json
file, describing each image. That file is automatically created by Xcode.
每个asset catalog在Xcode中都能在Finder中找到相应的文件夹,文件扩展名为.xcassets, 里面有每个集合的文件夹。 每个文件夹里都包含了所有尺寸的图片以及一个Contents.json文件, 它用于描述所有图片。 该json文件是由Xcode自动创建的。
You can share asset catalogs across multiple projects in the same workspace.
你可以在同一个工作区的多个项目之间共享asset catalogs.
