CALayer: archiving then unarchiving data does not match original object - ios

I have a UIButton with a UITextView as it's subview. The UITextView has 1 layer which the border is colored and has a width of 1. When I archive the UIButton then unarchive it, the border color and the border width becomes nil. If I set the layer background color, it will stay the same when archived then unarchived, which makes this bug very confusing.
UIButton textButton = ...
NSData *data = [NSKeyedArchiver archivedDataWithRootObject:textButton];
UIButton *textButton2 = [NSKeyedUnarchiver unarchiveObjectWithData:data];
The lldb debug output shows that the border color disappears
(lldb) po [[[textButton subviews] firstObject] layer] <CALayer:0x13445780; position = CGPoint (150 50); bounds = CGRect (0 0; 300 100); delegate = <UITextView: 0xdb20000; frame = (0 0; 300 100); text = ''; clipsToBounds = YES; autoresize = RM+BM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x13446430>; layer = <CALayer: 0x13445780>; contentOffset: {0, 0}>; sublayers = (<_UITextTiledLayer: 0x13448e80>, <CALayer: 0x13445d90>); masksToBounds = YES; allowsGroupOpacity = YES; borderColor = <CGColor 0xc09b6d0> [<CGColorSpace 0xbf28210> (kCGColorSpaceDeviceRGB)] ( 0.378437 0.5 0.13035 1 ); backgroundColor = <CGColor 0xbed1e10> [<CGColorSpace 0xbe65e70> (kCGColorSpaceDeviceGray)] ( 0 0 ); borderWidth = 1>
(lldb) po [[[textButton2 subviews] firstObject] layer] <CALayer:0x13443fe0; position = CGPoint (150 50); bounds = CGRect (0 0; 300 100); delegate = <UITextView: 0xdb2aa00; frame = (0 0; 300 100); text = ''; clipsToBounds = YES; autoresize = RM+BM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x13432ed0>; layer = <CALayer: 0x13443fe0>; contentOffset: {0, 0}>; sublayers = (<_UITextTiledLayer: 0x134447f0>, <CALayer: 0x13434740>); masksToBounds = YES; allowsGroupOpacity = YES; backgroundColor = <CGColor 0xbed1e10> [<CGColorSpace 0xbe65e70> (kCGColorSpaceDeviceGray)] ( 0 0 )>
Is there something special about the border color? Or is this really a bug?

adding CAlayer with frame displays at wrong position

I'm trying to add a rectangle view to my camera preview layer. I tried in 2 ways by UIView and by CALayer. In both cases the frame value is same, but they both end up at different positions .
The one black border is CALayer (featureLayer) and light background is the UIView (_cardHolder).
In viewWillAppear:
CALayer *featureLayer = [[CALayer alloc]init];
featureLayer.borderWidth=3;
featureLayer.backgroundColor=[[UIColor orangeColor]CGColor];
featureLayer.opacity = 0.5;
featureLayer.position = CGPointMake(0, 0);
[featureLayer setFrame:self.cardHolder.frame];
[self.videoPreviewLayer addSublayer:featureLayer];
(lldb) po featureLayer <CALayer:0x1c4423b20; position = CGPoint (160 283.5); bounds = CGRect (0 0; 288 181); allowsGroupOpacity = YES; opacity =
0.5; backgroundColor = <CGColor 0x1c40b1d00> [<CGColorSpace 0x1c00bb120> (kCGColorSpaceICCBased; kCGColorSpaceModelRGB; sRGB IEC61966-2.1; extended range)] ( 1 0.5 0 1 ); borderWidth = 3>
(lldb) po featureLayer.frame
(origin = (x = 16, y = 193), size = (width = 288, height = 181))
(lldb) po self.cardHolder <UIView: 0x123dcbc50; frame = (16 193; 288 181); autoresize = RM+BM; layer = <CALayer: 0x1c043eb40>>
(lldb) po self.videoPreviewLayer <AVCaptureVideoPreviewLayer:0x1c0623ae0; position = CGPoint (187.5
333.5); bounds = CGRect (0 0; 375 667); sublayers = (<CALayer: 0x1c0623800>, <CALayer: 0x1c4423b20>); masksToBounds = YES; allowsGroupOpacity = YES; inheritsTiming = NO; >
Am I missing something ?
The problem with placing code in a method other than viewDidAppear/viewDidLayoutSubviews is that the real frame is not yet rendered , so it should be like this but keep in mind to wrap it inside an once bool as this method is called multiple times
-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
[super viewDidLayoutSubviews];
if(once)
{
once = No;
CALayer *featureLayer = [[CALayer alloc]init];
featureLayer.borderWidth=3;
featureLayer.backgroundColor=[[UIColor orangeColor]CGColor];
featureLayer.opacity = 0.5;
featureLayer.position = CGPointMake(0, 0);
[featureLayer setFrame:self.cardHolder.frame];
[self.videoPreviewLayer addSublayer:featureLayer]
}
}

Swift - UIViews order programmatically

I have several UIView layers in one ViewController.
How can I determine the order of UIView programmatically?
I found the solution...
In the UIView documentation, where are several methods listed for the manipulation of the order of subviews:
bringSubviewToFront(_:)
sendSubviewToBack(_:)
removeFromSuperview()
insertSubview(_:atIndex:)
insertSubview(_:aboveSubview:)
insertSubview(_:belowSubview:)
exchangeSubviewAtIndex(_:withSubviewAtIndex:)
In Swift 4.0
view.sendSubview(toBack:yourUIView)
view.bringSubview(toFront:yourUIView)
Views are ordered from back-most to front-most in view.subviews array.
For example, here are 3 subview added to an empty view.
view.addSubview(UILabel())
view.addSubview(UIButton())
view.addSubview(UITextField())
Printing the subviews with the following code
for view in view.subviews {
print(view.debugDescription)
}
has the output
<UILabel: 0x7feef00042e0; frame = (0 0; 0 0); userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <_UILabelLayer: 0x60400008c210>>
<UIButton: 0x7feef00045c0; frame = (0 0; 0 0); opaque = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x604000222300>>
<UITextField: 0x7feeef02c800; frame = (0 0; 0 0); text = ''; opaque = NO; gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x60800005b090>; layer = <CALayer: 0x604000222280>>
When the views are reordered, the position in view.subviews changes
if let button = view.subviews.first(where: { $0 is UIButton }) {
view.bringSubview(toFront: button)
}
Now, printing the view, has the output
<UILabel: 0x7feef00042e0; frame = (0 0; 0 0); userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <_UILabelLayer: 0x60400008c210>>
<UITextField: 0x7feeef02c800; frame = (0 0; 0 0); text = ''; opaque = NO; gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x60800005b090>; layer = <CALayer: 0x604000222280>>
<UIButton: 0x7feef00045c0; frame = (0 0; 0 0); opaque = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x604000222300>>

What is this firstObject of my custom UIScrollview?

I have a custom UIScrollView, and I add 5 imageView as its subviews.However, after I log its subviews array , it has 6 children!! I use storyboard to add the scrollview add drag its IBOutlet. I have no idea where the firstObject come from?
- (void)configViews {
NSInteger launchImageCount = 5;
CGFloat screenWidth = CGRectGetWidth([UIScreen mainScreen].bounds);
CGFloat screenHeight = CGRectGetHeight([UIScreen mainScreen].bounds);
self.scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(screenWidth * launchImageCount, screenHeight);
self.scrollView.clipsToBounds =YES;
self.scrollView.pagingEnabled = YES;
self.scrollView.delegate = self;
self.scrollView.showsHorizontalScrollIndicator = NO;
for(int i = 0; i < launchImageCount; i++) {
NSString *imageName = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"B0%lu.jpg",(long)(i+1)];
CGRect rect = CGRectMake(screenWidth*i, 0, screenWidth, screenHeight);
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:rect];
imageView.image = [UIImage imageNamed:imageName];
[self.scrollView addSubview:imageView];
}
NSLog(#"subviews :%#",self.scrollView.subviews);
self.pageControl.numberOfPages = launchImageCount;
}

The UIScrollView has two default UIImageView to show you your scroll bars.
You probably enabled a horizontal/vertical scroll indicator, and that is the reason you see this extra UIImageView child.

addSubview change the index of one object in scroll.subviews

I add objects in UIScrollView inside cycle FOR, but after the second interaction the index of subviews change.
When i create the ScrollView:
scroll.subviews :(
"<UIImageView: 0x147aeee0; frame = (1017 186; 7 5); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = TM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147aef50>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aefa0; frame = (1019 184; 5 7); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = LM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147af010>>"
)
After i have the cycle FOR with [scroll addSubview:btn];
First
scroll.subviews :(
"<UIImageView: 0x147aeee0; frame = (1017 186; 7 5); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = TM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147aef50>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aefa0; frame = (1019 184; 5 7); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = LM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147af010>>",
"<ContentButton: 0x13fdc610; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (15 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 1; layer = <CALayer: 0x1034cc00>>"
)
Second (change last object to index 0)
scroll.subviews :(
"<ContentButton: 0x13fdc610; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (15 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 1; layer = <CALayer: 0x1034cc00>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aefa0; frame = (1019 184; 5 7); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = LM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147af010>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aeee0; frame = (1017 186; 7 5); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = TM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147aef50>>",
"<ContentButton: 0x105ddf70; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (246 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 149; layer = <CALayer: 0x105523e0>>"
)
Third and so on, the object will add normally (in last index)
scroll.subviews :(
"<ContentButton: 0x13fdc610; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (15 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 1; layer = <CALayer: 0x1034cc00>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aefa0; frame = (1019 184; 5 7); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = LM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147af010>>",
"<UIImageView: 0x147aeee0; frame = (1017 186; 7 5); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = TM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x147aef50>>",
"<ContentButton: 0x105ddf70; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (246 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 149; layer = <CALayer: 0x105523e0>>",
"<ContentButton: 0x13f1dc80; baseClass = UIButton; frame = (477 10; 221 173); opaque = NO; tag = 3; layer = <CALayer: 0x13f1dd20>>"
)
The problem is in the second interaction, so why the last object (ContentButton) was in the index 2 and change into index 0?
for (obj * objScroll in arrayChaObj)
{
// UIButton
ContentButton * btn = [[ContentButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(btContentPosXChaObj,
10,
imgButtonScroll.size.width,
imgButtonScroll.size.height)];
btContentPosXChaObj += 10 + imgButtonScroll.size.width;
[scroll addSubview:btn];
NSLog(#"scroll.subviews :%#",scroll.subviews);
[scroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake(btContentPosXChaObj, imgButtonScroll.size.height+10)];
}
This is just a wild guess.
What happens when you call setContentSize: for the first time? Well, the two image views end up outside the content region. They won't be ever displayed.
I guess the scrollview then optimizes the order of subviews and puts the invisible ones to the end which can probably improve its clipping (redrawing) functionality.
Currently I don't have the time to check this and experiment but it's a reasonable explanation for me.

isKindOfClass grab tag

I just want to grab the button tag 1~ 5 in ScrollView, other data do not need to grasp
(void)layoutScrollImages
{
UIImageView *view = nil;
NSArray *subviews = [weekscroll subviews];
CGFloat curXLoc = 0;
for (view in subviews)
{
if ([view isKindOfClass:[UIImageView class]] && view.tag > 0)
{
NSLog(#"%d",view.tag);
CGRect frame = view.frame;
frame.origin = CGPointMake(curXLoc, 0);
view.frame = frame;
curXLoc += (wScrollObjWidth);
}
}
NSLog(#"subviews = %#",subviews);
[weekscroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake((wNumImages * wScrollObjWidth), [weekscroll bounds].size.height)];
}
subviews = (
"<UIImageView: 0x1ba330; frame = (313 61; 7 5); alpha = 0; opaque = NO; autoresize = TM; userInteractionEnabled = NO; layer = <CALayer: 0x1bac00>>",

As per printed log, only UIButtons are having tags and in sample code you are working on UIImageView, so use given code as per your requirement.
I have modified your code as below, just check it out.
for (id objView in subviews)
{
if ([objView isKindOfClass:[UIImageView class]])
{
UIImageView *imgView = (UIImageView*) objView;
if (imgView.tag > 0)
{
NSLog(#"%d",imgView.tag);
CGRect frame = imgView.frame;
frame.origin = CGPointMake(curXLoc, 0);
imgView.frame = frame;
curXLoc += (wScrollObjWidth);
}
}
}
Or if you want to grab only UIButtons,
for (UIButton *btnView in subviews)
{
if ([btnView isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]] && btnView.tag > 0)
{
NSLog(#"%d",btnView.tag);
CGRect frame = btnView.frame;
frame.origin = CGPointMake(curXLoc, 0);
btnView.frame = frame;
curXLoc += (wScrollObjWidth);
}
}
You want the button with tags greater than 0 right.. then why are you checking for [UIImageView class].. ?
your condition to find Buttons with tag greater than 0 should be :
if ([aView isKindOfClass:[UIButton class] && (aView.tag > 0)]) {
}
