i was adjusted layout of my app, one question haunts me see below screenshot:
(please ignore the Chinese characters)
the image is included in a scroll view which be set at position (0, 0)
the red area is the UIVivew which is the superview of the scroll view
why a gap existing between scroll view and UIView? maybe something invisible element hold the place?
TW, all of that is fine in IB editor. really thanks for your help.
just in case you are able to set min os requirement to 5.x or later, then you can use http://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#DOCUMENTATION/UIKit/Reference/UIPageViewControllerClassReferenceClassRef/UIPageViewControllerClassReference.html to do this.

I have a horizontally scrolling UIScrollView that runs "off" the screen. See image:
I want to be able to edit the content more directly in the Storyboard rather than guessing where to put Views etc. As you see in the image above, you can't see the entire text of the UILabel, nor the ImageView at the end, much less anything else I might want to put there.
I'm using Xcode 14.2.
I answered this ten years ago, and in a perhaps better way a few months after, but due to the endless vicissitude of Apple's designs, the procedure has become slightly different, so here's a new answer.
You can't scroll a scroll view in the storyboard editor. As a workaround, you can make the scene wider, and the scroll view wider, so that you can see all of its content in the storyboard editor.
Select the view controller in the storyboard outline.
Open the Size inspector. Change the setting for “Simulated Size” from “Fixed” to “Freeform”.
Increase the width of the simulated size as needed so that you can make your scroll view wide enough to see all its content. Depending on how your constraints (or autoresizing mask) are set up, the scroll view may get wider automatically.
in iOS 13 it happens that the view of UIViewcontroller that is presented as model starts from the tip of the arrow. Because of it top banners in all of my popover gets cut. Can I prevent this from happening ? I want that my UIView does not start from arrow but once arrow is finished.
To fix this issue, I opened up my view controller's XIB, selected the top-most view, and then checked "Use Safe Area Layout Guides" under the File Inspector. Then I added Auto Layout constraints (of length 0) around that view's sole subview (a UITableView).
(I also needed to update the view controller's background colour. This changed the arrow colour back to what it was in iOS 12 and before.)

I wonder if your contentView contains UIScrollView. If yes, please add alwaysBounceVertical = YES to your scrollView. It works in my case.
I don't know why they changed this behavior, it can be a pita to deal with it if you are not using xibs. I couldn't find anything in the docs about it.
Use the safe areas to adjust the position of your view. You can both try to extend the size of that red area, or skip the arrow completely. In this particular case you can use safeAreaInsets.top if the arrow is going to be on the top always.
I am trying to develop a simple app with one screen for iOS and am running into a strange problem. Only half of the app is showing up. For example I have a screen with just one button in the center of the screen. When I run the app in the simulator I only see half the button and I cannot move it either.I can scroll the view in the simulator vertically but not horizontally. I am stumped. Will appreciate any pointers.
I'm pretty sure you built your view using the main storyboard and put everything in the middle of it. The main storyboard is set to take all iOS format into account, iPhone and iPad. If you want your app to appear centered on your iOS device, you need to constraint the position of your different UI objects, using Auto Layout. That way it would appear centered automatically, whatever is the device you're using
I reckon you've got AutoLayout turned on... but haven't set any constraints on your controls yet.
Try the following test:
Go into your Storyboard file.
Click on a blank area in your storyboard, then on your screen (so the border of your screen is blue - not black or gray).
In the menu bar, click on Editor \ Resolve Auto Layout Issues, and then "Update Frames".
Alternatively, you can click on the following button, and select "Update Frames" from there (it doesn't matter which one):
When you do this, where does your "one button" end up ? Does it suddenly disappear off the screen, have a negative X or Y position, or a width/height of 0 ? If so, then AutoLayout is your problem.
With XCode 6.1, Apple has put a gun to developers' heads and demanded that when you add an object to a Storyboard, you must - straightaway - add some constraints to it.
I had this issue when I first upgraded to XCode 6.
I would add, say, a View to a screen, stretch it to a particular size, then drag a second control (perhaps a Label) onto the same screen. Suddenly, my View would resize itself to a height/width of zero, or be positioned way off the side of the screen... huh ?!
To get around this, when you add a control onto a Storyboard, you must add sufficient constraints to really let XCode calculate where to position it, based on which device/orientation the device is running on. And, yes, you sometimes need to do this straightaway before XCode ridiculously decides to mess up your control's position or size.
I really do loathe XCode. This isn't the way a development environment should behave in 2015...
If I get your point of problem then
I m sure the problem is you have auto layout and size classes enabled.
check if you have Auto layout and size classes enabled ....???
If yes then you haven't set the constraints accurately. set the constraints for the UI Objects to show on your desired position in screen.
I'm trying to use Auto Layout for a custom Table View Cell in my app.
I can't seem to get the constraints quite right.
I layed the labels out in the custom Table View Cell, but the labels are still getting cut off. Any ideas?
Thanks! Will post anything else needed. Tried to show needed info in picture below:
Debugging in Xcode. Somehow what shows in Simulator looks different than in Xcode debug.
Here's the width of my TableView shown:
UPDATE:
The problem here was related to what user matt said in the accepted answer, but I wanted to make the Q&A a bit clearer now that I have it figured out for anyone else that comes across this.
In his initial comment, he mentioned the Xcode View debugging, which was great and I was able to dig into a little bit more. Its called the Assistant Editor: Device Preview, where you are able to see the layout and layers of what is onscreen to see if maybe you have labels overlapping or going offscreen based on the device it is running on. If you want to check multiple device sized, just hit the plus icon in the lower left hand corner of this picture.
This helped me find overlapping layers and sizing issues with the TableView. I was able to see how it looked on each device size.
What also helps here sometimes to use the Pin menu. Sometimes the labels can run off screen because it doesn't know where the constraints of the cell are based on the device size. So your label can run offscreen if the label is based off of a landscape layout but the device is an iPhone 5 and is in Portrait for example. This is the Pin menu:
Hope that makes sense and gives some more color to the problem. Let me know if you have any questions at all, thanks for the help everyone!
The problem is that you are using auto layout but you have not done anything about sizing the table view. The table view here is not your view controller's view; it is a subview. Your view controller's view is automatically sized to the size of the device / window, but its subviews are not automatically resized. So you are ending up with the table view much too wide for the device; the whole table is sticking off into space on the right side.
Use a trailing space from the right side of your labels to the edge of their superview, and set it to greater than instead of equals with a value of ~ 5
Review the constraints of your tableview with the View. Draw cell border, label border and tableview border with different colors to know which elements do not display correctly.
Ex:
#import <QuartzCore/QuartzCore.h>
...
cell.layer.border.width = 1;
cell.layer.border.color = [UIColor blackColor].CGColor;
The thing that worked for me to solve views being clipped was to uncheck "Constrain to margins" in Auto Layout.
I have a UILabel that i placed in the top left corner of the screen in the Storyboards. I disabled "Autolayout" and it works perfectly fine on the iPhone 5 screen. The problem comes when i try them on any of the smaller screens like the iPhone 4. The label is then placed on the bottom right corner. After this issue, i tried to programmatically 'fix' the position in the "viewDidLoad" method of the view controller, but it stills moves position and the problem continues.
Ive been scratching my head about this for a while!
Any help would be appreciated.
I would suggest that you turn autolayout back on. If you get the constraints right, this situation (two different screen sizes) is exactly the sort of thing autolayout is really good for. There's a very good reason why Apple migrated autolayout from OS X to iOS at exactly the moment the iPhone 5 screen appeared on the scene!
try to fix it at viewWillAppear
Go to the utilities panel, click the tab "Show size inspector", and change the autosizing. Then drag your component in your storyboard's view so that it stays in one of the "borders". If you do not need to support older iOS versions, I'd recommend you to figure the proper way with auto-layout though.
