okay I am having trouble creating dynamic cells with tableview. My image collapse and looks like this. It works fine when the description is long but not when it is to short.
Image constraints are: width = 120, height = 160, top = 8, leading = 12.
Title constraints are: top = 8, leading to imageView = 8, trailing = 12.
Description constraints are: top to titleLabel = 5, leading to imageView = 8, trailing = 12, bottom = 12
Now instead of adding the bottom constraint to the description, I added it to the image and then the cell looks something like this.
Now the description is out of place and in the middle, where the it should be right under the title label.
Would really appreciate the help.
You need to do a little change to fix this
Give Bottom of your UIImageView with >= relation with 12 constant
value (750 Priority)
Give Bottom of your Desc label with >= relation with 12 constant value (With That your label text will stick on top ))
So Now the Autolayout Engine has two things to follow
If your Label text is small then UIImageView will be consider as height
If your Label text is larger then it will be used as Cell height
Hope is is helpful

hello guys now I have UITableViewCell should have dynamic height , this cell have 3 labels , I have added them in to stack and I added all requirements
to let tableViewCell be dynamic height
1- The code used for automatic cell height
notifications.rowHeight = UITableView.automaticDimension
notifications.estimatedRowHeight = 150
2- I have set constraints leading and trailing and bottom and top space to the superView.
3- The number of lines for each label is equal zero
this is cell before run
enter link description here
this cell after run https://ibb.co/5YCMpfK
The constraints of your tableViewCell must be like:
Properties of stackView:
Axis: Vertical
Alignment: Fill
Distribution: Fill Proportionally
Spacing: 5 (as per your requirement)
Number of lines of all 3 labels = 0
Check if your stack view doesn't have height constraint.
Check if your labels do not have any height constraint.
Give your stackview top and bottom constraints a specific value and make them greater than equal to topContraint >= 5 bottomconstraint >=5.
Change the property of stack view to Fill proportionally and give spacing according to your needs.
I am making an app where I need text to display directly above a UIImage. When the text is too wide to fit, I need it to display on 2 rows of text, with the bottom one being at the same position vertically as if it only had one row. If the text cannot fit in two rows, I want it to get smaller so that it will just fit in the two rows. Below is an image showing what I mean.
Image
Label constraints : top to superview , leading & trailing & bottom to imageView ,,, with .lines = 2 , textAlignment = .center
ImageView constraints : centerX , width , height
I want the DecriptionLabel (the Lorem Ipsum one) to have all the text inside it visible. As you can see, it is getting trimmed.
The two buttons should be under everything else, but in the case where DescriptionLabel contains a small text, the buttons should stick to the bottom of the view.
This is why I chose a >= 20 distance between the buttons and DescriptionLabel if it makes any sense.
How can I solve the trimming of the text?
Thanks.
I was originally answering How to make button stick to bottom of scroll view if the content isn't large enough? but since it is marked as duplicate of this one I am posting my answer here. Please try to set your constraints the following way: https://imageshack.com/a/img923/6671/Txzu98.png
The trick is that you set Button.Bottom Equal To ContainerView.Bottom with lower priority (I use 750) than Button.Top Greater Than Or Equal To Label.Bottom (Here I use default 1000)
The Label has to have number of lines set to 0. The height of the button should be set by height constraint (in this case is 50). The Container View Height constraint should be with low priority (in this case 250)
You should run the code to see actual result on device or simulator. Storyboard shows it a bit differently. For the current question:
https://imageshack.com/a/img923/7276/tQeT0h.png The basic idea is the same. Button Down has the same constraints as Button from above answer without Button.Top Greater Than Or Equal To Label.Bottom. There should be fixed vertical constraint between Button Up and Button Down. I am setting Button Up with fixed Height and setting trailing and leading constraint equal to trailing and leading of Button Down. The constraint Button.Top Greater Than Or Equal To Label.Bottom is now Button Up.Top Greater Than Or Equal To Label.Bottom
Have you set numberOfLines for label to 0 (that means autosize the label according to its text length)?
You should add the following constraints:
(following in sudo code)
// Constraints for ScrollView
scrollView.top = ViewController.view.top
scrollView.leading = ViewController.view.leading
scrollView.trailing = ViewController.view.trailing
scrollView.bottom = ViewController.view.bottom
// Constraints for View
view.top = scrollView.top
view.leading = scrollView.leading
view.trailing = scrollView.trailing
view.bottom = scrollView.bottom
// Width of view
view.width = ViewController.view.width
Now you just need to make sure you have layout constraints for each child of the 'view' and it's height will be correct and display the full size of the textview.
Add the following constraint:
scrollview.contentview.height >= safearea.height
This may show an error in interface builder but works in my tests:
To remove the design time error you could set a design time intrinsic content size for the scrollview's contentview (in my case I used the safe area's height of 554):
Another option (without placeholder values in IB) is to create the following constraint...
scrollview.contentview.height = safearea.height
... and change its priority to a value lower than the label's vertical content compression resistancy.
I have 2 labels: the description label (w/ red background) and the results label (gray text)
How do i set constraints for this example in order to have the results label with the size of its content and the description label until the results leadingAnchor? (like i have in the second row)
Objective C
[self.customTextLabel.trailingAnchor constraintLessThanOrEqualToAnchor:self.counterLabel.leadingAnchor].active = YES;
[self.counterLabel.widthAnchor constraintGreaterThanOrEqualToConstant:0].active = YES;
swift
titleLabel.trailingAnchor.constraint(lessThanOrEqualTo: counterLabel.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
counterLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(greaterThanOrEqualToConstant: 0).isActive = true
I have a solution that i think it's ugly.
self.counterLabelWidthConstraint = [self.counterLabel.widthAnchor constraintEqualToConstant:0];
self.counterLabelWidthConstraint.active = YES;
And then after i set the text:
self.counterLabelWidthConstraint.constant = [self.counterLabel sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(CGFLOAT_MAX, self.counterLabel.height)].width;
The way to do this with auto layout is by using the contentCompressionResistancePriority of the 2 labels. Set the pririty to NSLayoutPriorityRequired for the second label and something lower like NSLayoutPriorityDefaultLow for the first label. Then, as long as the 2 labels have proper constraints anchoring them to their superview and each other, the first label should compress while the second label should not.
You just need to increase the horizontal compression resistance of the right/gray label to be higher than that of the left/red label. This tells the visual layout that, in the event that there is not enough space for both labels, the one on the left will be compressed before shrinking the label on the right. 750 is the default for all views, so just increase the right/gray label's horizontal compression resistance to 751 and you should be good to go.
Swift 5 programatically:
<#label#>.setContentCompressionResistancePriority(.required, for: .horizontal)
Labels with this property will not compress horizontally.
You can set constraints for in storyboard itself. Select Label 1 (red back ground) and label's superview set widths are equal constraint. Select Label 1 and double tap on its width constraint, from the resultant window, you could see Lable 1 width equal to superview with value constant as '1'. change '1' to 0.7 or whichever the percentage you want.
As I am new to iOS. So forgive me if it is duplicate or very basic question.
I am taking one View. Approx below is the size .
x : 5 y : 5
Width : 590 Height : 100
and I set constraint it
Top to superView 5
Trailing to superView 5
Leading to superView 5
Now I have one Label which have dynamic Text and the Text is too large.
And the Label Constraint is below
Top to superView 5
Trailing to superView 5
Leading to superView 5
and when i set the background color of the View the color is not set. If the Text is to Long. So how to set the Height of the View and also set background so that it looks clear.
Code :
public override void ViewDidLoad()
{
base.ViewDidLoad();
lbl_one.Text = "This is a long label which have long text inside the writing. This is a long label which have long text inside the writing. This is a long label which have long text inside the writing. This is a long label which have long text inside the writing";
lbl_one.LineBreakMode = UILineBreakMode.WordWrap;
lbl_one.Lines = 0;
view_main.BackgroundColor = UIColor.Red;
}
If I give fix Height then it look like this .
Output :
1. Give the below constraints to your view, height is according to your need. here I'm giving 80.
2. Change the height relationship.
3. Add aUILabel in your above UIview, and give below constraints.
--> leading, top, bottom, trailing to uiview and height i.e. 80.
4. set height relationship as you do with UIView.
5. Change the property of UILabel , Lines to zero
6. Now enjoy with your constraints.
EDIT: Add bottom constraint to your view instead of height constraint.
I don't see and bottom constraint added to UIView, so the view height will be 0.
If you have added the height constraint to UIView, there is a probability that UILablel might be overlapping the UIView, so you are not able to see the background color.
Set the UIView height constraint this will solve your problem
You can also add height or bottom constraint to your UIView.
