UIAlertControllerInterfaceActionGroupView AMBIGUOUS LAYOUT - ios

Question

I am trying to figure out a constraint issue when presenting my UIAlertController.
2019-04-26 11:40:42.140007+0100 MyAPP[12811:3974220] [LayoutConstraints] Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints.
Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want.
Try this:
(1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect;
(2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it.
(
""
)
Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint
Make a symbolic breakpoint at UIViewAlertForUnsatisfiableConstraints to catch this in the debugger.
The methods in the UIConstraintBasedLayoutDebugging category on UIView listed in may also be helpful.
I create and present the UIAlertController using the following function
#discardableResult
static func showOptionsModal(withOptions options:[String], sender:UIViewController ,holderView:UIView, arrowPosition:UIPopoverArrowDirection, completion: ((_ option:Int) -> ())?)->UIAlertController {
let moreActionsCellSheetController = UIAlertController(title:nil, message: nil,preferredStyle: .actionSheet)
for (i, option) in options.enumerated(){
let optionAction = UIAlertAction(title:option, style: .default){ (_) in
completion?(i)
}
moreActionsCellSheetController.addAction(optionAction)
}
if UIDevice.current.userInterfaceIdiom != .pad {
let actionCancel = UIAlertAction(title:printLocalized(withKey: "messages.cancel", targetSpecific: false), style: .destructive){ (_) in
completion?(-1)
}
moreActionsCellSheetController.addAction(actionCancel)
}
moreActionsCellSheetController.view.tintColor = UIColor.black
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceView = holderView
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect = holderView.frame
switch arrowPosition {
case .up:
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.y = 0
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.x = (-holderView.frame.width / 8)
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = .up
case .right:
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.y = 0
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.x = 0
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = .right
case .down:
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.y = holderView.bounds.width/2
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = .down
case .left:
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.y = holderView.bounds.height/2
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = .left
default:
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.y = 0
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect.origin.x = 0
moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.permittedArrowDirections = .any
}
sender.present(moreActionsCellSheetController,animated: true, completion: nil)
return moreActionsCellSheetController
}
I am added a symbolic breakpoint and added an action like so:

The Constraint issue only seems to happen with an iPhoneX. Ipads and iPhone 7 and 7 plus don't show the the issue.
Thank you.

Answer 1

I got similar issue in iPad.
I fixed it removeing sourceRect and change view.frame to CGRect(x, y, 0, 0).
So, How about removing moreActionsCellSheetController.popoverPresentationController?.sourceRect in your code?
sourceRect means UIAlertController's position. So I think you'd better setting it like CGRect.
Thanks.
