How can i customize UIAlertAction in UIAlertController for iOS8?

Question

I need to add image in Action sheet item using UIAlertController. I add using:

UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"icon.png"];
[alertAction setValue:image forKey:@"image"];

And results as:

UIActionSheet

The problem is that: I need the image & text to be centrally aligned and resize the height of Cancel button

How can i do that, please share some code.

Thanks!

@CeceXX you cannot create custom nib file for UIAlertAction! It is not a subclass of UIView. It is directly inherited from NSObject. — Burhanuddin Sunelwala, Mar 24 '15 at 07:05
@BurhanuddinSunelwala You can. And this is an example: https://github.com/mattneub/custom-alert-view-iOS7. — Cesare, Mar 24 '15 at 12:49
@CeceXX they are making there own custom view controller and that is what I have explained in my answer. The custom alert view controller is not a subclass of UIAlertViewController. And we were talking about customizing UIAlertAction :) — Burhanuddin Sunelwala, Mar 24 '15 at 12:57
Do you have a valid solution now? I met the same issue, and want to know how to solve the issue? Thanks. — Chris Forever, Apr 11 '17 at 07:32

Well, here is the Runtime Header file for UIAlertAction. You can neither change the frame of image nor you can change the height of Cancel button.

So what is the solution?

The only solution that I could figure is to make a custom view with UIVisualEffect and show/animate it like UIActionSheet. Basically you need to imitate UIActionSheet.

That said, I would like to welcome other solutions as well.
