I have a UICollectionView that scrolls horizontally and I would like to have one cell visible on the screen at a time.
I am programmatically setting the cell width and height in the following method:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "Cell", for: indexPath as IndexPath) as! Cell
let width = collectionView.bounds.size.width - 40
let height = collectionView.bounds.size.height - 40
cell.bounds.size = CGSize(width: CGFloat(width), height: CGFloat(height))
return cell
}
And after struggling to figure out how to work with insets, spacing, section insets (both programmatically and in the inspectors in XCode) I can't seem to figure out what I need to set and where I need to set it.
Here is a diagram of my desired spacing:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: UIScreen.main.bounds.width - 40, height: yourCollectionViewHeight - 40)
}
left 20 - add Footer Size and Header Size in storyboard with width = 20
spacing between cells - add Minimum Spacing in storyboard = 40
I could have made some mistakes and you will not get exactly your layout, but I hope you would get the idea.
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: collectionView.frame.width * 0.7, height: 300)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layoucollectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
let margin = collectionView.frame.width * 0.3
return UIEdgeInsets(top: 10, left: margin / 2, bottom: 10, right: margin / 2)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 0
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return collectionView.frame.width * 0.3 / 2
}
If you want single cell visible on the screen at a time then important thing is that you should enable paging for your CollectionView. You can do it in swift as below :
collectionView.isPagingEnabled = true
Now conform your ViewController class to UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout and implement it's method sizeForItemAt indexPath which returns CGSize for your collectionview cell. For Example:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: 200, height: 200)
}

I have created CollectionView and its cell in storyboards, I try to set cell size and margins through UICollectionViewFlowLayout in code but no matter what I do margins don't change. Changing size in storyboards also doesn't change anything
screenshot.
I'm always getting these margins:

What am I doing wrong?
let itemsPerRow = 1
let sectionInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 1.0, left: 1.0, bottom: 1.0, right: 1.0)
extension VideoVC: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let paddingSpace = sectionInsets.left + sectionInsets.right
let widthPerItem = collectionView.bounds.width - paddingSpace
return CGSize(width: widthPerItem, height: 265)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
return sectionInsets
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 5
}
I am trying to create 2x2 grid layout using collection view.
I have used below code. It's kind of working fine for iPhone 5 but with tweaks. I am trying to write code that can be used on all screen sizes. This is not working on iPhone 6.
public func numberOfSections(in collectionView: UICollectionView) -> Int {
return 2
}
public func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 2
}
public func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath)
if let cell1 = cell as? CollectionViewCell {
return cell1
}
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let padding: CGFloat = 20
let collectionViewSize = collectionView.frame.size.width - padding
return CGSize(width: collectionViewSize/2, height: collectionViewSize/2+15)
}
public func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
insetForSectionAt section: Int
) -> UIEdgeInsets {
return UIEdgeInsets(
top: 5, left: 5, bottom: 5, right: 5
)
}
public func collectionView(
_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
}
public func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 5
}
public func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 5
}
I am trying to achieve following layout:
In future this grid can be like 2 columns only and N rows. Each row will always have 2 items.
First of all, get three variables together depending on your needs. Those are the minimum spacing (Both InteritemSpacing and Line spacing - Should be same UXwise but you can change that in delegate methods if you like. The interitem space however must always be equal to minimumSpacing), edgeInsetPadding and the number of items you want in a row.
private var numberOfItemsInRow = 2
private var minimumSpacing = 5
private var edgeInsetPadding = 10
In your code, you have already defined your Edge Insets as:
UIEdgeInsets(
top: 5, left: 5, bottom: 5, right: 5
)
The left and right insets are important for correctly determining the size of the item. left+right gives us a grand sum of 10. This should be assigned to edgeInsetPadding like this:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
let inset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 20, left: 20, bottom: 20, right: 20)
edgeInsetPadding = inset.left+inset.right
return inset
}
Now lets get to your UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout. Update the following methods.
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return minimumSpacing
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return minimumSpacing
}
Now lets get to the main part. Modify your sizeForItemAt in UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout as:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let width = (Int(UIScreen.main.bounds.size.width) - (numberOfItemsInRow - 1) * minimumSpacing - edgeInsetPadding) / numberOfItemsInRow
return CGSize(width: width, height: width)
}
And this is it. You now get two equal size tiles in 2x2 grid. If you want to change this in future, just change the numberOfItemsInRow variable to something else. Like 3 for 3x3.
This will be done using the item size of the collectionViewCell
collectionView.delegate = self
extension ViewController : UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let padding = 5
let width = (collectionView.frame.size.width - CGFloat(padding) * 2) / CGFloat(2)
let height = width / 200 * 110 // or what height you want to do
return CGSize(width: width, height: height)
}
}
Use:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView,
layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout,
sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let padding: CGFloat = 20
let size = self.view.frame.width - padding
return CGSize(width: size/2, height: size/2+15)
}
I am implementing a UICollectionView that needs to page horizontally. The UICollectionViewCell needs to be the same size as the UICollectionView. The cell has 2 embedded rows. The first has a UITextView and a UIButton and the second has a UITextView.
The UICollectionviewCell and the constraints work in preview for different sizes of the iPhone (e.g. 4s, 8, 8plus) but when running in the simulator paging doesn't work correctly and the cell's width, I guess, isn't centered and the cell doesn't move far enough to reach the next cell making the cell look cutoff.
I have tried the solution at this url: UICollectionView Horizontal Paging not centered
but I can't seem to get the width and centering correct. The code I'm using is below.
internal class AccessViewController : UIViewController, UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
//...
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "Cell", for: indexPath) as! PagerContentCollectionViewCell
//Set the cell title
cell.txtTitle.text = "title"
//add a target for the call capability
cell.btnCall.addTarget(self, action: #selector(didButtonClick), for: .touchUpInside)
//description
cell.txtDescription.text = "description"
return cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
//let i = IndexPath(item: titles.count, section: 0)
collectionView.scrollToItem(at: indexPath, at: .right, animated: true)
print("Selected")
collectionView.reloadData()
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 0
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let frameSize = collectionView.frame.size
return CGSize(width: frameSize.width, height: frameSize.height)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let frameSize = collectionView.frame.size
return CGSize(width: frameSize.width, height: frameSize.height)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets {
return UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 5, bottom: 0, right: 5)
}
The UICollectionView width and height are 267, 153.
The UICollectioViewCell width and height 262, 150
The Section Insets are 0,0,0,0.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks
Edit: I added in code I was trying to use for the layout. I am probably missing something else too.
I was able to fix using these two functions:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 0
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let frameSize = collectionView.frame.size
return CGSize(width: frameSize.width, height: frameSize.height)
}
here is some snap of it i tried with this code but it's not working:
my collecionview cell :
size is : 166 : 32
Min Spacing : 10 : 10
section insets: 20 : 20
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt
indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize
{
if collectionView == MainCollectionView
{
let padding : CGFloat = 50
let collectionViewSize = MainCollectionView.frame.size.width - padding
return CGSize(width: collectionViewSize/2, height: collectionViewSize/2)
}
return CGSize(width: 0, height: 0)
}
Use UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout in your view
and call the delegate method
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let width = self.view.frame.width
return CGSize(width: (width)/2, height: (width)/2) // width & height are the same to make a square cell
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize{
let width = (collectionView.frame.width/2)-0.5
return CGSize(width:width , height: width)
}
Try implementing these UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout delegate methods to achieve the desired result:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize
{
return CGSize(width: (collectionView.bounds.width - 10 - 20*2)/2, height: collectionView.bounds.height)
//In collectionView.bounds.width - 10 - 20*2 :
//10 for cell spacing and
//20*2 for section insets on left and right
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat
{
return 10
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets
{
return UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 20, bottom: 0, right: 20)
}
Specify your requirements more clearly so that I can help you further.
Your code is perfect but the delegate method you are using is perhaps not getting called. Based on the swift syntax version you are using, try the latest delegate method. And also make sure that you have made your collection view the observer of that delegate by making it self.
collection view had multiple images working fine. it's showing like this
But i want show like this way
this is code of collection view cell
let layout: UICollectionViewFlowLayout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
layout.sectionInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 10, left: 0, bottom: 20, right: 0)
let width = UIScreen.main.bounds.width
layout.itemSize = CGSize(width: width/2 , height: width/2 )
layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
layout.minimumLineSpacing = 0
collectionView!.collectionViewLayout = layout
Just implement some UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout methods to get the correct size and spacing of the UICollectionViewCells.
Example:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize
{
let cellSize = CGSize(width: (collectionView.bounds.width - (3 * 10))/2, height: 120)
return cellSize
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat
{
return 10
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, insetForSectionAt section: Int) -> UIEdgeInsets
{
let sectionInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(10, 10, 10, 10)
return sectionInset
}
Just change the size and spacing values according to your requirement.
Add this method on your viewcontroller
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: ((self.view.frame.size.width/2) - 10), height: 255)
}
Try,
collectionViewCellImageView.contentMode = .scaleToFill
You can try to set minimum spacing for cell & line for collection view and implement the bellow delegate
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
return CGSize(width: (collectionView.frame.width/2) - 5, height: collectionView.frame.width/2)
}
