unity iOS advanced usage - yanivav/Documentation GitHub Wiki

######This section describes advanced usage and personal customization options and is not mandatory for the integration.

###Hiding your banner You can hide and show your banner in run time, using ``showBanner`` and ``hideBanner`` methods: ```csharp #if UNITY_IPHONE StartAppWrapperiOS.hideBanner(); StartAppWrapperiOS.showBanner(); #endif ```

You can check if your banner is currently visible by using the bannerIsVisible() method:

#if UNITY_IPHONE
StartAppWrapperiOS.bannerIsVisible();
#endif

##Customizing your Interstitial Ad You can choose to show a specific type of interstitial ad, as well as getting callbacks events, using the ``STAInterstitialProperties`` object.

###Selecting Interstitial Ad Type When calling an interstitial ad, the ad type with the best performance will be automatically selected. If you would like to explicitly choose the type of ad, use the STAInterstitialProperties.type object when calling loadAd().

The options for this parameter are:

Constant Name Description
StartAppWrapperiOS.AdType.STAAdType_Automatic (recommended) Automatic selects the most suitable banner of the two listed below
StartAppWrapperiOS.AdType.STAAdType_FullScreen A full-page ad
StartAppWrapperiOS.AdType.STAAdType_OfferWall A full page offerwall
StartAppWrapperiOS.AdType.STAAdType_Overlay An overlay Ad is a full page Ad that runs on top of your application

We highly recommend using the Automatic type, which automatically selects the best ad type to display.

Example - loading an OfferWall ad

#if UNITY_IPHONE
StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties adProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties();
adProp.type = StartAppWrapperiOS.AdType.STAAdType_OfferWall;
StartAppWrapperiOS.loadAd(adProp);
#endif

###Using Interstitial Callbacks Use one of your GameObjects as a delegate to get callbacks from the interstitial ad. Even an empty GameObject you create for this purpose will do.

  1. Pass the GameObject name on the STAInterstitialProperties.delegateName member to the loadAd() method
void Start () {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties adProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties();
   	adProp.delegateName ="Main Camera";
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.loadAd(adProp);
       #endif    
}
  1. Implement the following callbacks in your GameObject script
public class StartAppGameObject : MonoBehaviour {
   // Use this for initialization
   void Start () {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties adProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STAInterstitialProperties();
   	adProp.delegateName ="Main Camera";
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.loadAd(adProp);
       #endif    
   }
   
  void didLoadAd() {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("didLoadAd");
       #endif    
   }
   void failedLoadAd(string Error) {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("failedLoadAd");
       #endif
   }
   void didShowAd() {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("didShowAd");
       #endif    
   }
   void failedShowAd(string Error) {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("failedShowAd");
       #endif    
   }
   void didCloseAd() {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("didCloseAd");
       #endif    
   }
   void didClickAd() {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
       Debug.Log("didClickAd");
       #endif    
   }
}

###Checking if ad is ready You can check if your ad is loaded and ready to use, by using the isAdReady() method:

#if UNITY_IPHONE
StartAppWrapperiOS.isAdReady();
#endif 

Back to top

##Customizing your Banner Ad You can control the position of your banner as well as loading a specific size and getting callbacks events, using the ``STABannerProperties`` object.

###Positioning your banner You can show your banner at the bottom or top of your screen, or use a fixed position.

Use a top banner
#if UNITY_IPHONE  
StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
bannerProp.position = StartAppWrapperiOS.BannerPosition.TOP;
StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
#endif
Use a bottom banner
#if UNITY_IPHONE  
StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
bannerProp.position = StartAppWrapperiOS.BannerPosition.BOTTOM;
StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
#endif
Use a fixed position banner
#if UNITY_IPHONE  
StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
bannerProp.useFixedPosition = true;
bannerProp.fixedPosition.x = 0;
bannerProp.fixedPosition.y = 100;
StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
#endif

###Controlling the size of your banner The size of the banner is determined by the "size" parameter which can receive one of the following values

Value Size Best fits for
STA_AutoAdSize (recommended) Auto-size detects the width of the device's screen in its current orientation, and provides the optimal banner for this size
STA_PortraitAdSize_320x50 320x50 iPhone/iPod touch in portrait mode
STA_LandscapeAdSize_480x50 480x50 iPhone/iPod touch in landscape mode
STA_PortraitAdSize_768x90 768x90 iPad in portrait mode
STA_LandscapeAdSize_1024x90 1024x90 iPad in landscape mode

Example - loading 320x50 top banner

#if UNITY_IPHONE  
StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
bannerProp.position = StartAppWrapperiOS.BannerPosition.TOP;
bannerProp.size = StartAppWrapperiOS.BannerSize.STA_PortraitAdSize_320x50;
StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
#endif

###Using Banner Callbacks Use one of your GameObjects as a delegate to get callbacks from the banner ad. Even an empty GameObject you create for this purpose will do.

  1. Pass the GameObject name on the STABannerProperties.delegateName member to the addBanner() method
void Start () {
       #if UNITY_IPHONE
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
   	bannerProp.delegateName ="Main Camera";
   	StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
       #endif    
}
  1. Implement the following callbacks in your GameObject script
public class StartAppGameObject : MonoBehaviour {
    // Use this for initialization
    void Start () {
        #if UNITY_IPHONE    
   	 StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties bannerProp = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STABannerProperties();
        bannerProp.delegateName ="Main Camera";
   	 StartAppWrapperiOS.addBanner(bannerProp);
        #endif    
    }
    
    void didDisplayBannerAd() {
        #if UNITY_IPHONE
        Debug.Log("didDisplayBannerAd");
        #endif    
    }
    void failedLoadBannerAd(string Error) {
        #if UNITY_IPHONE
        Debug.Log("failedLoadBannerAd");
        #endif    
    }
    void didClickBannerAd() {
        #if UNITY_IPHONE
        Debug.Log("didClickBannerAd");
        #endif    
    }
}

##Customizing your Splash Screen You can customize the appearance of your splash screen using the ``STASplashPreferences`` object, as describes below. In order to use splash preferences, use the ``showSplashAd`` with an initialized ``STASplashPreferences`` object.

For example - using splash preferences to choose a template mode with a "blaze" theme:

StartAppWrapperiOS.STASplashPreferences splashPreferences = new StartAppWrapperiOS.STASplashPreferences();
splashPreferences.mode = StartAppWrapperiOS.STASplashMode.STASplashModeTemplate;
splashPreferences.templateTheme = StartAppWrapperiOS.STASplashTemplateTheme.STASplashTemplateThemeBlaze;
StartAppWrapperiOS.showSplashAd(splashPreferences);

###Splash Preferences API The following API describes all customization options available for the splash screen.

####►Splash screen mode Decide whether to use user-defined or template mode.
