I have a UIPageViewController that is in a container view which contains a UIToolbar on the bottom.
Currently the toolbar covers all views that are at the bottom of the view controller that the UIPageViewController is showing.
I can inset the frame of the UIPageViewController but then you can't see the blurred child view under the toolbar. Is there a way to inset the view so it will make the child constraints relative to the top of toolbar, but still be able to see the view underneath the toolbar?

I am trying to implement a horizontal scrolling table view. I was able to accomplish this with the following layout. I have a ScrollView which contains a Container View which points to my NavigationController. Since I made the Container View wider than the ScrollView, the table is able to scroll left to right as expected.
The problem I am having is resizing the Navigation Bar's width as I do not want to have to scroll to view the Navigation Bar's title. I tried explicitly setting the width property of the Navigation Bar in ViewDidAppear however it keeps getting resized to the actual width of the table view. Is there any way I can do this without having to create my own custom view that mimics that Navigation Bar?
I ended up creating my own navigation bar that is placed on top of the actual integrated table view navigation bar.
My ViewController is embedded in a UINavigationController, and it has a view that should be aligned with the top of root view. The root view has dark gray background, and occupies full screen. But this is what it looks like now:
As you can see, the root view is displayed below the status bar, which is expected. But the subview (black) is displayed below a white strip. I guess this is the top layout guide, and my subview has a constraint with its top equal to the bottom of the top layout guide. After I remove this constraint, I cannot add a constraint from my subview to the root view by Ctrl-dragging, Xcode always set up the constraint with top layout guide.
My question is:
How can I add a constraint top of subview == top of root view?
Why does the top layout guide occupy the white region?
self.automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets = true
The default value of this property is true, which lets container view controllers know that they should adjust the scroll view insets of this view controller’s view to account for screen areas consumed by a status bar, search bar, navigation bar, toolbar, or tab bar. Set this property to false if your view controller implementation manages its own scroll view inset adjustments.
You can also set this property from Interface Builder
I have a UITabBarController with one UINavigationController holding a UIViewController as root view controller.
when tapping one of the button in the UIViewController, I push a regular chat window UIViewController (with TableView + Input View) end hiding the bottom tab bar. (using the "Hide bottom bar when pushed" flag)
In storyboard I added a regular UIView subclass to VC that look like a bottom bar, and I use Auto Layout to pin it to the bottom of the VC view.
The problem
when I push VC it takes a second for this view to pin to the bottom, it looks like auto layout pin it to the bottom as if the tab bar is not hidden and after a sec it recognise that the tab bar is hidden and moves it to the real bottom of the view.
For clear info check this screen shot
Now I will let you the know the constraints of the table view..
Now I am showing the constraints of the InputView
I am also adding my View hierarchy...
I had a similar issue in my project. I solved it by selecting the view I wanted anchored to the bottom (in your case, the input view), held Command, and selected its superview (both views should be highlighted now).
Then I selected the align button at the bottom of IB:
And added a Bottom Edges constraint.
What I had done initially is used the pin menu to pin the view to its superview, but it appears that will pin it to the bottom layout by default, which causes that weird movement during the transition.
EDIT:
After seeing the latest screenshot, the problem could lie in one of the superviews. I'm assuming that chatWindow is a UIView, and your Scroll View is horizontal only. Here's what your should check:
chatWindow is pinned to the scrollView's bottom similar to what I've outlined above.
scrollView is pinned to its superview as I've outlined above.
Moving the inputView outside of the scrollView to the root superview. Then one by one move it down the hierarchy towards its current location.
I had an UIPageViewController embedded in a NavigationController embedded an TabBarController.
I supposed every child view of the UIPageViewController fits the size within the UITabBarViewController.
The first child view looks fine:
Switch to the next (vertically), it's view suddenly resizes and the view length expands over the bottom bar:
Actually it's not under the bottom bar but clipped to that size (which means if you pull up the view you still cannot see the whole but the cut text).
I did unchecked every related view controller's Under Bottom Bar & Adjust Scroll View Inset but nothing works.
Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Try this in table view controller viewDidLoad() method.
self.extendedLayoutIncludesOpaqueBars = NO;
OR
you can set property in Interface Builder:
Uncheck Extend Edges: Under Bottom Bars, Under Opaque Bars.
I haven't been to find anything about this, and it may be that there is no easy solution.
I have a scroll view (in this instance a UITableView) which is the first subview of my UIViewController's view (which is not itself a scroll view). This view controller is in a UINavigationController, and I have also added a UIToolBar as second subview of the view controller's view. Both the table view and the toolbar are positioned and sized in the view controller's view using autolayout (with the table view filling the view, and the toolbar being pinned to the bottomLayoutGuide of the view controller).
As I understood it, navigation bars and toolbars (which are pinned to the bottom of views) should influence the topLayoutGuide and bottomLayoutGuide of the view controller, and by this influence the contentInset of contained scroll views.
The navigation bar is being taken into account (by the topLayoutGuide and automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets) so that my table view content scrolls underneath it, but is visible below it, but my UIToolBar is not - either by bottomLayoutGuide or automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets. This behaviour is the same even if I position my toolbar with a frame (not using constraints).
Am I right in thinking that a UIToolBar pinned to the bottom of the view controller's view should be taken into account by the layout guides? If so, does anyone have any ideas as to why it is not?
If not, is there anywhere (amy method) where I can manually add the tollbar frame to the bottomLayoutGuide so that it is automatically propagated by automaticallyAdjustsScrollViewInsets? And if not, in what method is it best to manually set the table view's content insets?
If you added one yourself it would just be a subview and would not affect the layout guides. Use the built in UIToolbar by setting the UINavigationBar .toobarHidden = false property. Then set the UIViewController.toolbarItems = ...
This toolbar will be your bottom layout guide
