Just making my first steps in IOS development, and I want to bring my Android app to IOS.
The issue it with UICollectionView. I need the cells to be of fixed constant width, and the image inside the cell - of fixed height. So, I've set the width constraint of StackView to 105 and height constraint for ImageView to 147.
Everything looks as expected, however I get warnings in the console:

I also tried to set width and height constraints of ImageView only to 105x147, it looks the same, and the warning is pretty much the same. Basically if no width or height constraints set - there is no warning, once I add any of them - it appears.
Here are the constraints:
I would appreciate you helping me understand the potential problem.
I think removing the width constraint of the stack view will work.

I get the following error in the log and the toolpicker does not appear:

I'm not really sure how to mess around with the constraints of the PKPalette or what constraints are conflicting below. I've also tried disabling translatesAutoResizingMaskIntoConstraints and it doesn't work as other parts of my application rely on it. Any help is appreciated, thank you!
I get the same log messages when calling PKToolPicker on iPhone. On iPad, I do no get the constraint errors. If I look through the constraint conflicts, it all seems internal to the PKToolPicker and nothing to do with my layout setup.
If you run the same code, but with the iPhone in Landscape rather than Portrait, the conflicts do not occur. I therefore suspect that the PKPickerTool constraints have some sort of limitation that Apple needs to fix when the width of the screen is too narrow. I'll post a radar.
It's not because of the constraints; you need to call these lines:
toolPicker.setVisible(true, forFirstResponder: canvasView)
canvasView.becomeFirstResponder()
You can find more info here:
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/pencilkit/drawing_with_pencilkit
https://developer.apple.com/videos/play/wwdc2019/221/
I have the same situation. If you set the layout breakpoint, I can see the views involved are all in Apple's own, and they even exist in a private overlay window, not the main window. So seems a legit bug in the framework.
I found that for me it would fail the first time I tried to get the tools. To workaround, I now simply get the tools once very early on after launch. I don't use them, but this triggers the bug, so that when I really need the tools, they work.
if #available(iOS 13.0, *) {
PKToolPicker.shared(for: view.window!)
}
I am getting the following warning with auto layout.

However, I am able to silence the warning by setting the trailing constraint priority to 999. This seems to remove the warning and nothing regarding the layout changed. Is this okay to do or can this cause any issues?
Is this okay to do or can this cause any issues?
Depends. Might cause issues.
The ideal way is to not disrupt you constraints to fix warnings. The issue seems to be with constraints.
"<NSLayoutConstraint:0x60400028a1e0 'UIView-Encapsulated-Layout-Width' UIView:0x7fc908d52020.width == 0 (active)>"
Your superview (0x7fc908d52020), is forcing a width of 0. Probably something you do not want.

You have a constraint conflict, you could solve this by adding different priorities to your constraints, or deleting one of them.
You could also, give all the views you're using a restoration id, so in place of "UIImageView:0x7f8193515be0.height", it would appear 'id name'.height. This way you could see which view is having trouble with constraints.
You should study autolayout if you don't want to have these problems again...
AutoLayout guide
Firstly, try to change priorities for each height constraint in your table view cell to be at least 999.f
Obviously, you have an issue with height constraint.
Below is the error message I receive in the debug area. It runs fine and nothing is wrong except that I receive this error. Would this prevent apple accepting the app? How do I fix it?

I would recommend to debug and find which constraint is "the one you don't want". Suppose you have following issue:
Always the problem is how to find following Constraints and Views.
There are two solutions how to do this:
DEBUG VIEW HIERARCHY (Do not recommend this way)
Since you know where to find unexpected constraints (PBOUserWorkDayHeaderView) there is a way to do this fairly well. Let's find UIView and NSLayoutConstraint in red rectangles. Since we know their id in memory it is quite easy.
Stop app using Debug View Hierarchy:
Find the proper UIView:
The next is to find NSLayoutConstraint we care about:
As you can see, the memory pointers are the same. So we know what is going on now. Additionally you can find NSLayoutConstraint in view hierarchy. Since it is selected in View, it selected in Navigator also.
If you need you may also print it on console using address pointer:
(lldb) po 0x17dce920
<UIView: 0x17dce920; frame = (10 30; 300 24.5); autoresize = RM+BM; layer = <CALayer: 0x17dce9b0>>
You can do the same for every constraint the debugger will point to you:-) Now you decide what to do with this.
PRINT IT BETTER (I really recommend this way, this is of Xcode 7)
set unique identifier for every constraint in your view:
create simple extension for NSLayoutConstraint:
SWIFT:
extension NSLayoutConstraint {
override public var description: String {
let id = identifier ?? ""
return "id: \(id), constant: \(constant)" //you may print whatever you want here
}
}
OBJECTIVE-C
#interface NSLayoutConstraint (Description)
#end
#implementation NSLayoutConstraint (Description)
-(NSString *)description {
return [NSString stringWithFormat:#"id: %#, constant: %f", self.identifier, self.constant];
}
#end
build it once again, and now you have more readable output for you:
once you got your id you can simple tap it in your Find Navigator:
and quickly find it:
HOW TO SIMPLE FIX THAT CASE?
try to change priority to 999 for broken constraint.
The problem you're having is the NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints should not be in there. This is the old system of springs and struts. To get rid of it, run this method on each view that you're wanting to constrain:
[view setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints:NO];
Be careful, that you do not use more than one constraint in the same direction and type.
For example:
Vertical constraint for trailing = 15 and another one is >= 10.
Sometimes, Xcode creates some constraints you don't notice.
You have to get rid of redundant constraints and the log warning will surely disappear.
Additionaly, you can read and detect some certain reasons, directly from the log:
NSLayoutConstraint:0xa338390 V:|-(15)-[UILabel:0xa331260] (Names:
'|':UILabel:0xa330270 )>
This we can read as problem in UILabel constraint, it is leading vertical constraint being 15pt long.
NSLayoutConstraint:0x859ab20 H:-(13)-|[UIView:0x85a8fb0]...
This would be trailing horizontal constraint etc.
use swift this code
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
I had quite a number of these exceptions thrown, the fastest and easiest way I found to solve them was to find unique values in the exceptions which I then searched for in the storyboard source code. This helped me to find the actual view(s) and constraint(s) causing the problem (I use meaningful userLabels on all of the views, which makes it a lot easier to track the constraints and views)...
So, using the above exceptions I would open the storyboard as "source code" in xcode (or another editor) and look for something I can find...
<NSLayoutConstraint:0x72bf860 V:[UILabel:0x72bf7c0(17)]>
.. this looks like a vertical (V) constraint on a UILabel with a value of (17).
Looking through the exceptions I also find
<NSLayoutConstraint:0x72c22b0 V:[UILabel:0x72bf7c0]-(NSSpace(8))-[UIButton:0x886efe0]>
Which looks like the UILabel(0x72bf7c0) is close to a UIButton(0x886efe0) with some vertical spacing (8)..
That will hopefully be enough for me to find the specific views in the storyboard source code (probably by searching the text for "17" initially), or at least a few likely candidates. From there I should be able to actually figure out which views these are in the storyboard which will make it a lot easier to identify the problem (look for "duplicated" pinning or pinning that conflicts with size constraints).
I had a hard time figuring out what constraints were causing this error. Here is a simpler way to do it.
I'm using Xcode 6.1.1
"Command + A" to select all the UILabels, UIImages etc.
Click Editor -> Pin > (Select...) to Superview
again click Editor -> Resolve Auto Layout Issues -> Add Missing Constraints or Reset to Suggested Constraints. It depends on your case.
I had this issue because my .xib files were using autolayout.
In the file inspector, first tab. Unticking "Use Autolayout" solved the problem.
Here is my experience and Solution.
I didn't touched code
Select view (UILabel, UIImage etc)
Editor > Pin > (Select...) to Superview
Editor > Resolve Auto Layout Issues > Add Missing Constraints
I have followed SO questions and answers from each search query. But they all are related with specific one.
At the basic, I mean before you are going to write down a format (may be a simple one) it will gives you a warnings.
From iOS 8.0 by default views are size classes. Even if you disable size classes it will still contains some auto layout constraints.
So if you are planning to set constrains via code using VFL. Then you must take care of one below line.
// Remove constraints if any.
[self.view removeConstraints:self.view.constraints];
I had search a lot in SO, but the solution was lies in Apple Sample Code.
So you must have to remove default constraints before planning to add new one.
For me the main reason of this problem was that I forgot to uncheck AutoLayout in the Xib editor.
In fact, I did a lot of adjustments of the XIB in code.
for(UIView *view in [self.view subviews]) {
[view setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints:NO];
}
This helped me catch the view causing the problem.
None of the foregoing answers is helpful in my situation. I am running XCode 10.1 and testing my app on the simulator for an "iPad (5th generation)". The simulator is running iOS 12.1.
I've got a simple root view in my storyboard, with two UITextField subviews. There are no constraints being used in the storyboard at all. And I have no UIButtonBarView objects in the app or the storyboard.
No messages get printed when the app launches and lays the root view out. None when the simulated device is rotated.
But in the simulator, the moment I click on one of the text fields, the keyboard extension arises from the bottom of the screen, although not the full keyboard, which never seems to show up in the simulator. But the following is printed out on the terminal:

It certainly appears to me that all this has to do with nothing in my app, and everything to do with how Apple is creating its own keyboard view, even with my small extension declared to be combined with it.
So the question remains, is there something I as an app developer am responsible for doing (on the presumption this is a bunch of stuff worth attending to) or is it just Apple's own problem/bug?
FWIW, this constraint problem message doesn't occur when simulating a newer iPad model, such as the iPad Pro 12.9-inch (3rd generation). But the message does show up when simulating an iPad Pro 9.7-inch". All claiming they're running iOS 12.1.
I am getting this same error, but only on a specific view, when I touch the first textfield, and then the next textfield down.

One thing to watch out for (at least this tripped me up) was that I was removing the constraint from the wrong view. The constraint I was trying to remove was not a child constraint of my view so when I did
myView.removeConstraint(theConstraint)
it wasn't actually removing anything because I needed to call
myView.superView.removeConstraint(theConstraint)
since the constraint was technically sibling constraint of my view.
I was also getting the same issue of breaking constraints in the log, for a viewCircle in the xib. I almost tried everything listed above and nothing was working for me.
Then I tried to change the priority of the Height constraint which was breaking in the log(confirmed by adding an identifiers for the constraints on the xib)enter image description here
Basically, you just have to remove that constraint from the associated view. For instance, if is the height constraint giving warning, just remove it from your view; it will not affect the view.

I just add this line in viewDidLoad and work fine with me.
