How to remove space between two cells in UiCollectionView? Min spacing is not working.
- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (collectionView.tag==101)
{
return CGSizeMake((_collView.frame.size.width),(_collView.frame.size.height));
}
else
{
return CGSizeMake((_collView2.frame.size.width/3)-20,300);
}
}
But this is not working.

Set Min Spacing for cells and for Lines to Zero
and replace your code by
- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout: (UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath: (NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
if (collectionView.tag==101)
{
return CGSizeMake((_collView.frame.size.width),(_collView.frame.size.height));
}
else
{
return CGSizeMake((_collView2.frame.size.width/3),300);
}
}

Answer 2

Use UICollectionViewFlowLayout for those purposes:
UICollectionViewFlowLayout *flow = [[UICollectionViewFlowLayout alloc] init];
flow.itemSize = CGSizeMake(cellWidth, cellHeight);
flow.scrollDirection = UICollectionViewScrollDirectionHorizontal;
flow.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0;
flow.minimumLineSpacing = 0;

Answer 3

This happens because of how UICollectionviewFlowLayout works. You could provide a custom collectionview layout:
Left Align Cells in UICollectionView
Or use a 3d party solution:

Answer 4

use this code, based on your design adjust the width and height.
- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath: (NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
CGSize s = CGSizeMake([[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.width/2-10,
[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds].size.height/2.9-7);
return s;
}
bellow code adjust the edges of collection view
- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView:
(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section {
return UIEdgeInsetsMake(2, 6,2, 6);
}
Use both delegates and change the width and height

Answer 5

A method called minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAtIndex from UICollectionViewFlowLayoutDelegate could help you. The minimunIteritemSpace set the space beetween items horizontally, for example try this code:
- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionView *)collectionViewLayout minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
return 0; // This is the minimum inter item spacing, can be more
}
Also you can use the edgeInsets to change the space beetween items.

Answer 6

- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
return 10.0;
}
- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout minimumLineSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
return 10.0;
}
- (UIEdgeInsets)collectionView:
(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout insetForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
// return UIEdgeInsetsMake(0,8,0,8); // top, left, bottom, right
return UIEdgeInsetsMake(20,20,20,20); // top, left, bottom, right
}
