rearrange collectionViewCell once the scrolling to next item ends - ios

I have a collectionView and my collectionViewCell contains an imageView, so when I'm loading my view for the first time it seems fine, but when I scroll through it, it gets misplaced , see the images
i have 3 images in my collectionView cell the first image is at place but not the second and third images
before scrolling (image1)
after scrolling (image2) (when am horizontally switching to next image)
my collectinView supports Horizontal Scroll and (pink background) is my cell , (yellow background) is CollectionView as you can see once I scroll to next image my cell gets a little out of screens, any idea how to fix this ???
my codes :
in tableView:
extension TableViewController: UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView,
numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return contentImages[collectionView.tag].count
}
func shouldInvalidateLayoutForBoundsChange(newBounds: CGRect) -> Bool {
return true
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView,
cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier("Cell",
forIndexPath: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell
//cell.imgView.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, collectionView.frame.width, collectionView.frame.height)
cell.imgViewOfCell.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFit
cell.imgViewOfCell.image = ResizeImage(UIImage(named: contentImages[collectionView.tag][indexPath.item])!, targetSize: CGSizeMake( cell.imgViewOfCell.frame.width , cell.imgViewOfCell.frame.height))
//imageView.image = UIImage(named: imageModel[collectionView.tag][indexPath.item])
return cell
}
}
collectionViewCell :
class CollectionViewCell: UICollectionViewCell {
#IBOutlet var imgViewOfCell: UIImageView!
override func awakeFromNib() {
imgViewOfCell.frame = self.bounds
self.contentView.setNeedsLayout()
}
}
in tableViewCell:
func setCollectionViewDataSourceDelegate
<D: protocol<UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegate>>
(dataSourceDelegate: D, forRow row: Int) {
collectionView.delegate = dataSourceDelegate
collectionView.dataSource = dataSourceDelegate
collectionView.tag = row
collectionView.reloadData()
}
var collectionViewOffset: CGFloat {
get {
return collectionView.contentOffset.x
}
set {
collectionView.contentOffset.x = newValue
}
}
Any idea of how to fix this? Please let me know what am doing wrong or what I'm missing.

ended up with this ,after debugging i got to know that my Cell's x origin was not accurate , so am calculating this manually on my cellForItemAtIndexPath like this :
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView,
cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier("Cell",
forIndexPath: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell
cell.imgViewOfCell.contentMode = .ScaleAspectFit
if indexPath.row == 0 {
cell.frame.origin.x = 0
}else if indexPath.row == 1 {
cell.frame.origin.x = self.view.bounds.width
}else if indexPath.row == 2 {
cell.frame.origin.x = (self.view.bounds.width*2)
}else if indexPath.row == 3 {
cell.frame.origin.x = (self.view.bounds.width*3)
}
....... }

Cells don't show up in a table view until minimal scrolling or tap (NOTE: nothing happens on a background thread)

I have a horizontally scrollable UICollectionView with three cells each of which are different subclasses of UICollectionViewCell. Each one of these cells contains a UITableView.
Inside of the first two cells, my table view cells are the same subclasses of UITableViewCell and have just a UIImageView. I use it to set its backgroundColor. Inside of the third cell, my table view's cells are different subclasses of UITableViewCell than in the previous two. They have both a UILabel and a UIImageView. The label has some dummy text, and I set imageView's backgroundColor to some color, again.
In order to follow MVC pattern, I use my UIViewController as a data source and a delegate for both collection view, and table view. Here is the code of UIViewController:
class ViewController: UIViewController, UITableViewDelegate, UITableViewDataSource {
let collectionViewCellId = "collectionViewCell"
let tableViewCellId = "tableViewCell"
let collectionViewCellId2 = "collectionViewCellId2"
let collectionViewCellId3 = "collectionViewCellId3"
let tableViewCellDif = "tableViewCellDif"
var collectionViewIndex: Int?
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView! {
didSet {
collectionView.delegate = self
collectionView.dataSource = self
collectionView.isPagingEnabled = true
}
}
//MARK: UITableViewDataSource
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 5
}
public func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let colors: [UIColor] = [.red, .green, .purple, .orange, .blue]
let colors2: [UIColor] = [.blue, .brown, .yellow, .magenta, .cyan]
if collectionViewIndex == 0 {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: tableViewCellId, for: indexPath) as! TableViewCell
cell.colorForImageView = colors[indexPath.row]
return cell
} else
if collectionViewIndex == 1 {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: tableViewCellId, for: indexPath) as! TableViewCell
cell.colorForImageView = colors2[indexPath.row]
return cell
} else
if collectionViewIndex == 2 {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: tableViewCellDif, for: indexPath) as! TableViewCellDifferent
cell.colorForImageView = colors2[indexPath.row]
return cell
} else {
return UITableViewCell()
}
}
}
//MARK: UICollectionViewDataSource
extension ViewController: UICollectionViewDataSource {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 3
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let identifier: String
if indexPath.item == 0 {
identifier = collectionViewCellId
} else if indexPath.item == 1 {
identifier = collectionViewCellId2
} else if indexPath.item == 2 {
identifier = collectionViewCellId3
} else {
identifier = ""
}
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: identifier, for: indexPath)
return cell
}
}
//MARK: UICollectionViewDelegate
extension ViewController: UICollectionViewDelegate {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, willDisplay cell: UICollectionViewCell, forItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if indexPath.item == 0 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 0
}
if indexPath.item == 1 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell2
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 1
}
if indexPath.item == 2 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell3
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 2
print (collectionViewIndex)
}
}
}
//MARK: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout
extension ViewController: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
let layout = collectionViewLayout as! UICollectionViewFlowLayout
layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
layout.minimumLineSpacing = 0
return CGSize(width: collectionView.frame.width, height: collectionView.frame.height)
}
}
As I stated in a title of the question, nothing happens on a background thread. I, basically, only set the backgroundColor of table view's cells.
The problem is that inside the collection view's third cell (and only inside of there), my table view dequeues its cells only after a minor scroll or tap happens. Here is how it looks like:
I can't figure out why this happens. Maybe, this happens because inside of the third cell of the collection view, my table view's cells are instances of different subclass than inside of the first two?
EDITED
I could solve the problem by reloading the table view before before showing the collection view's each cell but I'm not sure that this is the most efficient solution. Here is the code:
//MARK: UICollectionViewDelegate
extension ViewController: UICollectionViewDelegate {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, willDisplay cell: UICollectionViewCell, forItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) {
if indexPath.item == 0 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
cell.tableView.reloadData()
collectionViewIndex = 0
}
if indexPath.item == 1 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell2
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
cell.tableView.reloadData()
collectionViewIndex = 1
}
if indexPath.item == 2 {
let cell = cell as! CollectionViewCell3
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
cell.tableView.reloadData()
collectionViewIndex = 2
}
}
}
If you know a better way, I would appreciate your help.
I gave this a try, and saw the same results. So, I moved your collection view cell "setup" code from willDisplay cell: to cellForItemAt and it fixed the problem.
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
if indexPath.item == 0 {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: collectionViewCellId, for: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 0
return cell
}
if indexPath.item == 1 {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: collectionViewCellId2, for: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell2
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 1
return cell
}
// if we get here, indexPath.item must equal 2
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: collectionViewCellId3, for: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell3
cell.tableView.dataSource = self
cell.tableView.delegate = self
collectionViewIndex = 2
return cell
}
Now, since you're not showing your code for your tableview cells, it's possible there might be another issue, but this worked for me:
class TableViewCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet var theImageView: UIImageView!
var colorForImageView: UIColor = UIColor.gray {
didSet {
self.theImageView.backgroundColor = colorForImageView
}
}
}
You can try to dequeue CollectionViewCell or TableViewCell explicitly on the main thread
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: identifier, for: indexPath)
}
or
DispatchQueue.main.async {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: tableViewCellDif, for: indexPath) as! TableViewCellDifferent
cell.colorForImageView = colors2[indexPath.row]
}
It could help to wake up the main thread
But in general, it would be much easier if a data source for the table view was inside collection view cell

Set height of UITableViewCell by height of UICollectionView

I have a problem: I have UITableView with UITableViewCell, at cell I have UICollectionView with a different number UICollectionViewCell. I want to UITableViewCell height corresponds to the height of UICollectionView.
I see real height UICollectionView here:
class TimeViewCell: UITableViewCell {
#IBOutlet weak var labelTime: UILabel!
var dataForShow = [String]() {
didSet{
self.collectionView?.reloadData()
}
}
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
collectionView.delegate = self
collectionView.dataSource = self
}
}
extension TimeViewCell: UICollectionViewDelegate, UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return dataForShow.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "CollectionCell", for: indexPath) as! CustomCollectionCell
cell.labelCollection.text = dataForShow[indexPath.row]
let realValueHeightOfCollection = collectionView.contentSize.height
//when print realValueHeightOfCollection I see 50.0 (if dataForShow.count <4) or 110.0 (if dataForShow.count >5)
return cell
}
}
but how to pass that height to height UITableViewCell?
func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
let cell = tableView.dequeueReusableCell(withIdentifier: "cellTime", for: indexPath) as! TimeViewCell
let showHour = self.infoWripper.sorted(by: { $0.hour < $1.hour })[indexPath.row]
cell.labelTime.text = showHour.showHour()
cell.dataForShow = showHour.showFullTime()
//here may be set the height of cell?
return cell
}
upd Storyboard:
I Have an approach for you:
I used this in my code and m sharing with you
in TableView height method:
// MARK: - TableView Delegate Methods:
func tableView(tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGFloat {
var height: CGFloat = 0.0
// // //print("arrTA[indexPath.row] = \(arrTA[indexPath.row])")
let dict = arrTA[indexPath.row] as! NSDictionary
let str = dict[ISSELECTED] as! String
let strFlage = dict[FLAGE] as! String
let arrFileCount = dict[DATA]!["file_list"] as! NSArray//dict.objectForKey(DATA)?.objectForKey("file_list").count as NSMutableArray
if(strFlage == "MA") {
height = 50.0
} else {
height = self.setExpandedViewHeight(arrFileCount.count) + 0.0
}
return height
}
And I used this function in managing height:
func setExpandedViewHeight(intArrCount: Int) -> CGFloat {
var height: CGFloat = 0.0
var generatedHeight: Int = 0
generatedHeight = intArrCount / 3 /// We get number of rows
if(intArrCount % 3 == 0) {
height = CGFloat(generatedHeight) * 100
} else {
height = (CGFloat(generatedHeight) + 1 ) * 100
}
return height
}
I hope you will read and debug the code at your end and execute it.
I decided my problem by adding one line:
tableTime.rowHeight = cell.collectionView.collectionViewLayout.collectionViewContentSize.height
in func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {...}
If you are using autolayout then you can try this...
self.tableView.estimatedRowHeight = <estimatedRowHeight>;
self.tableView.rowHeight = UITableViewAutomaticDimension;
UITableViewAutomaticDimension will work if you've set leading, trailing, bottom, and top constraints relative to cell container view.
estimatedRowHeight : set this value with possible row height.
When you have set these properties, you neither need to implement heightForRowAtIndexpath nor estimatedRowHeight.

Show/hide content in expandable collection view cell

I have a collection view with two cells. I made cells expand/collapse by select(didSelectItemAtIndexPath). Cell contains additional views which should became visible in expanded mode and hidden in collapsed. My code work well if I play with expanded cell, but if I have expanded cell and tap on collapsed the expanded cell change their size but additional view stay visible. Maybe it will be easy to understand looking on the gif.
Good scenario:
click first cell = expand it
click first cell again = collapse it and hide image view
Bag scenario:
click first cell = expand it
click second cell = expand second cell & collapse first cell but additional image view on first cell still visible
click second cell again = collapse second cell and hide their content. additional image view on first cell still visible
Here is cell code:
class ExerciseSetCell: BaseCell {
// timer
let timerButton: UIButton = {
let button = UIButton()
button.setImage(UIImage(named: "timer"), forState: .Normal)
button.frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 25, 25)
button.alpha = 0
return button
}()
override func setupViews() {
super.setupViews()
backgroundColor = UIColor.whiteColor()
addSubview(timerButton)
timerButton.snp_makeConstraints { (make) in
make.width.equalTo(25)
make.height.equalTo(25)
make.bottomMargin.equalTo(-7)
make.centerX.equalTo(self)
}
}
}
Here is my collectionViewController code:
class ExerciseDetailVC: UICollectionViewController, UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
var exercise: Exercise?
let exerciseSetCell = ExerciseSetCell()
private let setCell = "ExerciseSetCell"
private var expandedCellIndex = -1
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
collectionView?.registerClass(ExerciseSetCell.self, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: setCell)
}
override func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return 2
}
override func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier(setCell, forIndexPath: indexPath) as! ExerciseSetCell
return cell
}
override func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, didSelectItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) {
let cell = collectionView.cellForItemAtIndexPath(indexPath) as! ExerciseSetCell
if expandedCellIndex == indexPath.item {
UIView.animateWithDuration(0.1, animations: {
cell.weightView.alpha = 0
cell.timerButton.alpha = 0
})
expandedCellIndex = -1
} else {
UIView.animateWithDuration(0.25, animations: {
cell.weightView.alpha = 1
cell.timerButton.alpha = 1
})
expandedCellIndex = indexPath.item
}
collectionView.reloadData()
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGSize {
if expandedCellIndex == indexPath.item {
return CGSizeMake(view.frame.width, 200)
}
return CGSizeMake(view.frame.width, 60)
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAtIndex section: Int) -> CGFloat {
return 2
}

Animating a CollectionViewCell Size To Outside CollectionView Boundary - Swift

I have been working on animating the size of some collectionViewCells. It is working great in my collectionViewController, but in another UIViewController where I have a small collectionView alongside other objects, the cell will only grow to the size of the collectionView. I would like it to fill the whole screen. What is the best way about doing this?
Here is my current code:
var largePhotoIndexPath : NSIndexPath? {
didSet{
var indexPaths = [NSIndexPath]()
if largePhotoIndexPath != nil {
indexPaths.append(largePhotoIndexPath!)
}
if oldValue != nil {
indexPaths.append(oldValue!)
}
collectionView?.performBatchUpdates({ () -> Void in
self.collectionView?.reloadItemsAtIndexPaths(indexPaths)
return
}){
completed in
if self.largePhotoIndexPath != nil {
self.collectionView?.scrollToItemAtIndexPath(self.largePhotoIndexPath!, atScrollPosition: .CenteredVertically, animated: true)
}
}
}
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, shouldSelectItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> Bool {
if largePhotoIndexPath == indexPath {
largePhotoIndexPath = nil
}
else {
largePhotoIndexPath = indexPath
}
return false
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGSize {
let dealImage: UIImage = UIImage(data: self.imageDataArray[indexPath.row])!
let dealPhoto: UIImageView = UIImageView(image: dealImage)
if indexPath == largePhotoIndexPath {
var size = UIScreen.mainScreen().bounds
dealPhoto.frame == size
return CGSize(width: 300, height: 525)
}
return CGSize(width: 100, height: 175)
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return self.imageDataArray.count
}
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier("Cell", forIndexPath: indexPath) as! TrailInfoCollectionViewCell
cell.imageView.image = UIImage(data: self.imageDataArray[indexPath.row])
return cell
}
And some images before and after I select the cell:
As you can see, the image has grown to the size I want it, but it is constrained by the collectionView. Is it possible for a collectionViewCell to exceed the boundaries of a collectionView, or will I have to do it some other way? I would just set up a hidden imageView but I like the animated transition.
Thanks for your help. Please let me know if you need any more details.
clipsToBounds properties is what prevents a subview from growing past it's parent. Set it to false and it should work.

How can I add multiple collection views in a UIViewController in Swift?

I tried many days to realise this:
I want to add in my UIViewController two different CollectionView.
For example I want to put images in these collectionView
Each CollectionView use its own images.
Is this possible?
I will be very happy if somebody can give me a hand. :)
This is possible, you just need to add each UICollectionView as a subview, and set the delegate and dataSource to your UIViewController.
Here's a quick example. Assuming you have one UICollectionView working, you should be able to adapt this code to your own uses to add a second fairly easily:
let collectionViewA = UICollectionView()
let collectionViewB = UICollectionView()
let collectionViewAIdentifier = "CollectionViewACell"
let collectionViewBIdentifier = "CollectionViewBCell"
override func viewDidLoad() {
// Initialize the collection views, set the desired frames
collectionViewA.delegate = self
collectionViewB.delegate = self
collectionViewA.dataSource = self
collectionViewB.dataSource = self
self.view.addSubview(collectionViewA)
self.view.addSubview(collectionViewB)
}
In the cellForItemAtIndexPath delegate function:
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
if collectionView == self.collectionViewA {
let cellA = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier(collectionViewAIdentifier) as UICollectionViewCell
// Set up cell
return cellA
}
else {
let cellB = collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithReuseIdentifier(collectionViewBIdentifier) as UICollectionViewCell
// ...Set up cell
return cellB
}
}
In the numberOfItemsInSection function:
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
if collectionView == self.collectionViewA {
return 0 // Replace with count of your data for collectionViewA
}
return 0 // Replace with count of your data for collectionViewB
}
Yes--this is entirely possible. You can either assign their respective UICollectionViewDelegates/UICollectionViewDataSources to different classes or subclass the CollectionViews, assigning both the delegate and data source to your current viewController and downcast your reference to collectionView in the delegation methods like so:
#IBOutlet collectionViewA: CustomCollectionViewA!
#IBOutlet collectionViewB: CustomCollectionViewB!
func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
if let a = collectionView as? CustomCollectionViewA {
return a.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("reuseIdentifierA", forIndexPath: indexPath)
} else {
return collectionView.dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier("reuseIdentifierB", forIndexPath: indexPath)
}
}
Subclass UICollectionView like this:
class CustomCollectionViewA: UICollectionView {
// add more subclass code as needed
}
class CustomCollectionViewB: UICollectionView {
// add more subclass code as needed
}
You can use the factory design pattern to build two different collection views and return them via functions. Here's my working version for swift 4.
This code goes in a separate helper file:
import UIKit
class collectionViews {
static func collectionViewOne() -> UICollectionView {
let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
let collectionViewOne = UICollectionView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 20, width: 200, height: 100), collectionViewLayout: layout)
return collectionViewOne
}
static func collectionViewTwo() -> UICollectionView {
let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
let collectionViewTwo = UICollectionView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 300, width: 200, height: 100), collectionViewLayout: layout)
return collectionViewTwo
}
}
And here is the view controller code:
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController, UICollectionViewDataSource, UICollectionViewDelegate {
let collectionViewOne = collectionViews.collectionViewOne()
let collectionViewTwo = collectionViews.collectionViewTwo()
var myArray = ["1", "2"]
var myArray2 = ["3", "4"]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
collectionViewOne.delegate = self
collectionViewOne.dataSource = self
collectionViewOne.register(UICollectionViewCell.self, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: "MyCell")
view.addSubview(collectionViewOne)
collectionViewTwo.delegate = self
collectionViewTwo.dataSource = self
collectionViewTwo.register(UICollectionViewCell.self, forCellWithReuseIdentifier: "MyCell2")
view.addSubview(collectionViewTwo)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
if collectionView == self.collectionViewOne {
return myArray.count
} else {
return myArray2.count
}
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
if collectionView == self.collectionViewOne {
let myCell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "MyCell", for: indexPath as IndexPath)
myCell.backgroundColor = UIColor.red
return myCell
} else {
let myCell2 = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "MyCell2", for: indexPath as IndexPath)
myCell2.backgroundColor = UIColor.blue
return myCell2
}
}
}
Result
You can also name the collection views outlets differently (without subclassing):
#IBOutlet weak var collectionView: UICollectionView!
#IBOutlet weak var SecondCollectioView: UICollectionView!
method:
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "customCell", for: indexPath) as UICollectionViewCell
if(collectionView == self.SecondCollectioView) {
cell.backgroundColor = UIColor.black
} else {
cell.backgroundColor = self.randomColor()
}
return cell;
}
This is will be an another way.
Here's my working version for swift 5 and Xcode 11:
create outlets for corresponding collectionviews: outlets:
#IBOutlet weak var bgCollectionView: UICollectionView!
#IBOutlet weak var frontCollectionView: UICollectionView!
var arrImages = [String : [UIImage]]()
arrImages is contain like
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
arrImages = [
"frontImg": [//Front UIImage array],
"bgImg": [//Background UIImage array]
]
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
if let arrImg = arrImages["bgImg"] {
return arrImg.count
} else if let arrImg = arrImages["frontImg"]{
return arrImg.count
}
return 0
}
You can do this two ways
Using CollectionView Outlets
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell
if collectionView == self.bgCollectionView{
if let arrImg = arrImages["bgImg"]{
cell.imgView.image = arrImg[indexPath.row]
}
}else{
if let arrImg = arrImages["frontImg"]{
cell.imgView.image = arrImg[indexPath.row]
}
}
return cell
}
Using CollectionView Tag:
Here Background Images collectionview tag is 1 and Front Images collectionview tag is 2.
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "cell", for: indexPath) as! CollectionViewCell
if collectionView == collectionView.viewWithTag(1){
if let arrImg = arrImages["bgImg"]{
cell.imgView.image = arrImg[indexPath.row]
}
}else{
if let arrImg = arrImages["frontImg"]{
cell.imgView.image = arrImg[indexPath.row]
}
}
return cell
}
Please Add Tag in CollectionView Like this:
Thank You. Hope It's working for you !!
Swift 5 Answer!
If you try connecting both collectionViews to the same view controller Xcode will throw an error "Outlets cannot connect to repeating content"
Solution:
Head to Storyboard
Connect the first collectionView via outlet, set the delegate/dataSource in viewDidLoad and then add a tag to the second collectionView by heading to the attributes inspector in storyboard and change the value from 0 to 1
Select the secondCollectionView and go to the connections inspector and select delegate and drag the connection to the UIViewController and the same for the dataSource.
Simply check which collectionView is passing through.
func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UICollectionViewCell {
if collectionView == collectionView.viewWithTag(1) {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "secondCollectionView", for: indexPath)
return cell
}
else {
let cell = collectionView.dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: "firstCollectionView", for: indexPath) as! HomeMainCollectionViewCell
cell.configureCell()
return cell}
}
