So I want to have a different type of custom cell but my problem is how can I add more if there is not enough space in a certain view in story board.
E.G.
Select your view controller, and in the fourth tab of InterfaceBuilder, select 'freeform' in size.
OR
Inside the UIStoryboard, you can simply select your UIViewController and go directly to the fifth tab. Just change the Simulated Size from Fixed to Freeform .
It works for you
Choose your details view controller in storyboard, show it's size inspector and set it's simulated size to Freeform.
Thanks to Bhavin Ramani that answer is:
In storyboard: Select YourViewController > Attribute Inspector > change size inferred to Freeform and set height as per your requirement in size inspector

can anybody tell me how to make a viewcontroller like this in the picture, taller x3 than normal view controller. And how does it show the next view controller if you enable the switch button not a segue!
Use the Size Inspector in your storyboard. Set the simulated size to Freeform and change the height as needed:
Im trying to create a UINavigationBar using storyboard but the UINavigationBar is not occupying the entire screen.
Following is the screen shot of my storyboard.
In storyboard, it appears to occupy full screen width but in my device, the width is not full. How can I sort this out?
select your viewController and go to XCode Menu - > Editor -> select Navigation Controller ,
for example
you get the output of
it works fine for any layout patterns
firstly you have to disable size classes and auto layout in the file inspecter for your view after then set your navigation bar property like as shown in screenshot. It will be applicable for all the devices.
1- Select your element.
2- Click triangle button at bottom right.
3- Click Add Missing Constraints
use autoresizing selecting your NavigationBar:-
I have multiple popovers in my app and need each one of them to be exact sizes. When I set each view controller an explicit size, the explicit size doesn't show in storyboard, but it does in the simulator.
Select the view controller in the storyboard and set its Size pop-up menu in the Simulated Metrics section of its Attributes inspector to Freeform. Now you can adjust the size to match the size it will be when the app runs.
Do note, however, that the size of a view controller's view in the storyboard is completely unimportant. It has no effect on the app when it runs. The view controller's view is always resized to fit its surroundings when the app runs. The only thing that matters in this case the popoverContentSize or preferredContentSize - the storyboard is just a place to draw in. You should be using constraints in such a way that the fact that the view is resized when the app runs doesn't matter to you.
When create a uiviewcontroller file in my xcode the uiview size becomes so larger than the default iphone screen size like this
I can't figure out why it occurs and how resize to the default size of iphone.
Make sure while creating class this should be done
Target for iPad - Uncheck
with XIB for user interface - Check
Yeah you can do it easily. Click on the view in XIB go the fourth tab on the properties window (right side) Under simulated metrics the first accordian check the size parameter (would be 'none' by default) and change it to 'free form' when you want XIB of custom size.
I have created an iPad app containing a popover view embedded in a navigation controller. I like using Storyboard as much as possible, and setting the "Use Explicit Size" in Xcode give me the correct size of my popover on the iPad. But it does not resize the UINavigationController view and its embedded UIViewControllers when viewing the storyboard in Xcode.
This is quite annoying as the size of my view in Xcode does not correspond to the actual size of the popover.
So, my problem is not setting the correct size of the popover (i also know i can do that with code), but I want the views in storyboard to show the actual size of my views.
What is the correct way to create viewControllers embedded in a navigation controller using storyboard?
For the views embedded in the navigation controller, you can change their size in the storyboard by doing the following:
Select the View Controller.
Go to the Attributes Inspector under Simulated Metrics and select Size: Freeform.
Select the View Controller's view.
Go to the Size Inspector and change the width and height.
After that, the view should be sized correctly in the storyboard.
Unfortunately I do not know how to change the size of the navigation controller.
