It's very odd - my cell labels are looking something like this:
However my constraints are set as such:
If I remove the constraints completely, then it's working. But I tested on multiple platforms and on both the simulator and an actual device. I've tried multiple combinations of constraints, none of which seem to work. This hasn't happened to me before, albeit I haven't done much iOS programming in a while. Is there something obvious I'm doing wrong or new in XCode 9?
Edit: I was able to fix by deleting and adding back a new UITableViewController and recreating it, but it's very odd and I'm wondering why this could be in the first place.
Check the custom class for your Content View, one level below your cell. If the Content View is a subclass of UITableCellView instead of UIView, you'll see this behavior. Unless you're sure you want to create a custom class for the Content View versus the cell itself, make sure not to use a Custom Cell here, in which case your Custom Class for the ContentView will be set to UIView.
Apply this constraint on label

I'm trying to constrain some objects in my tableview cell so that they will be formatted correctly and won't clip on different devices. But, whenever I add a constraint to an object in there, it throws the object off screen to the top left. In the screenshot I attached I showed it with the green bar on the left but the same is true when I do it to the other labels and text fields.
Any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?
I have a near identical table view that gets its data from another source and have them constrained the same way, but that tableview cell is formatted correctly when I build it.
I am seeing things online about Tableview cell subclasses. Is there something else I am supposed to be implementing in order to get these to stay? I'm not sure why they are working on one of my tableviews but not the other.
I am having the same issue that is being seen here Autolayout is ignored in Custom UITableViewCell but her answer is confusing me and I can't figure out how to reproduce it
This is what it looks like when the app is built:
Figured it out. For anyone else who may have this problem in the future. You need to click on the content view in the Storyboard and go to the indemnity inspector. Then from there make sure the Class is set to the default of UIView and not the custom class of the TableView Cell.
I am trying to disable AutoLayout for one exact view called conversationVC.
As it is a chat and I got the code from a project which is not using Autolayout.
My idea was to use
self.view.removeConstraints(self.view.constraints)
self.view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = true
to remove AutoLayouts constraints and add my own ones from CGRectMake
For some reason the screen gets messy.
This is my view hierarchy:
This is what the screen looks like using no code at all to remove AutoLayout:
Now trying to remove and Autoresize all single Items in my View it looks like this:
As you can see certain views become missing.
Any idea how to overcome this behavior?
note: add button is in the correct position.
Edit: It is not a duplicate since it addresses the whole view and it's elements other than a single label. also i don't think Autoresizing is the problem, but something else
I'm still getting familiar with iOS and the use of constraints. Initally had my layout setup with some constraints. But I ran into an issue. When entering text, my text fields are covered by the keyboard. I found some Apple docs: Doc One, Doc Two stating I should use a scrollviewin this case. It sounded easy enough but every time I put the content in the scrollview things go nuts. I've tried adjust my constraints in several ways, but nothing seems to help.
Anyone have any insight on what I'm missing?
Thank you
Before adding the Scrollview
After adding the Scrollview
If you use a UITableView with static cells and make your view controller a subclass of `UITableViewController, you don't need to worry about the keyboard. The table view controller takes care of keeping the focussed text field visible above the keyboard:
I wrote no code for that demo. It's all done in the storyboard. Here's the storyboard outline:
I've been searching through here and googling like crazy for a possible solution to this problem. Thus far I'm turning up exactly nothing that actually fixes it so I'm hoping someone can help.
I'm working on the UI for a iPad app. I'm doing it using interface builder. I worked with storyboards briefly but I don't like them all that much so I'm sticking with IB for now. Unfortunately I'm not very experienced with the workings of IOS Ui but it's been going relatively smoothly so far. In my app, I have a view controller, which holds a view containing a pair of sub views. One subview contains a rather windows like header bar (i like the look). The second contains a UITableView. The UITableView is set up properly as far as I can tell, and feeds it's info from a data source using custom UITableViewCells. The UITableView is set to grouped though currently there is only one section. The table is in edit mode by default because I want the user to be able to add new items and use the VC as a selection dialog. The view controller is presented (rather than pushed) using UIModalPresentationFormSheet (again, because I like the view) but I don't know that has any bearing on the problem. The cell border is flush with the X origin, the only reason the text isn't currently starting there is because I went into my cell and move the label over, leaving a gap between the edge of the cell and the label containing my text.
The Offending View http://bit.ly/144cbjT
The Problem: The UITableViewCells, for some reason are positioning themselves at X: 0. This puts them outside the border drawn on the UITablewView when you set it to grouped style. I could probably just turn off the border and get away with it, but I like the look so i want to keep it. I've tried messing around with constraints and anchor points on the cells, the content of the cells, the table itself, the view... I've tried simply moving my cell's labels over a bit. I've also had clipping subviews turned on and off. I've made sure the controls are being loaded properly from the XIB. I've made sure everything is added as a subview where needed. I've made sure I've tried everything I could think of short of setting the cell's X position in code. But since I'm not sure how to tell where the border is, I'd rather have the tableview or the cell do the work itself.
The question: How do I fix this? The selection accessory should be outside the grouping box. The text should be inside, not bleeding out onto the background like it is.I believe the content of the cell should be displayed inside the border within the yellow area.
The odd thing is, this is my fifth or sixth table in this app and I've been doing them all basically the same. Thus far this is the only one I've had trouble with.
Can anyone shed some light as to what's going on?
Thanks in advance
I think that to get this in code, you'd have to do something explicit, so the most likely candidate is a messed up IB file.
Since it doesn't cost anything, I'd just delete the tableView from the IB and then re-add it. If that doesn't work, try recreating the complete IB.
Hope that helps
Perhaps it's something with Xcode 4.5+ or iOS 6 that makes my research fruitless so far, but...
Apple's own advice hasn't worked for me. I set the contentSize to something different, and it causes no changes.
I found this wasn't unique to me, but the answer in that question 1.) does not inform me about the problem and 2.) I'm left wondering if it's really impossible to create a simple, non-inheriting example of UIScrollView. Thus, this question.
A better answer's code was tried within viewDidLoad and viewDidAppear, but to no avail.
So what gives? Is it possible to create a simple, image-filled view that allows scrolling? Say... something as easy as this basic project I set up on github -- but working?
Create and initialize a UIScrollView
Add it as subview to the view of viewcontroller
Make an array of image names
In a loop create UIImageView and add the images and add imageviews into scrollview considering the width of images, set the frame of imageviews
Number of images is known and the width it consumes can be calulated from the loop itself use it to set the contentSize of the scrollview
