I'm trying to achieve a specific design inside a custom reusable view.
(Something like this: )
So I pass an URL to retrive the image and I pass a String to add below.
Firstly, I want the entire view to be the width of the elements (if the text is long then the entire view will be wider), I don't know how to do that, the view seems to be the entire width of the screen.
Secondly, I want the items to be centered horizontally and vertically, what I tried does not work.
Here is my current code :
func initLayout() {
stackView.axis = NSLayoutConstraint.Axis.vertical
stackView.distribution = UIStackView.Distribution.fillEqually
stackView.alignment = UIStackView.Alignment.center
stackView.spacing = 10.0
stackView.addArrangedSubview(imageView)
stackView.addArrangedSubview(textContainer)
stackView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.addSubview(stackView)
self.snp.makeConstraints { (make) -> Void in
make.height.equalTo(70)
}
self.stackView.snp.makeConstraints{ (make) -> Void in
make.edges.equalTo(self)
}
}
And it results in something like this:
As you can (or cannot) see, the view is centered in the middle of the screen, which is not what I want. The view should be the width of the text and everything centered inside this particular width, then I add it inside my VC and place it so it's leading.
if I understand well the is your constraint without Snapkit:
Set your objects under your class controller declaration:
let myImageView: UIImageView = {
let iv = UIImageView()
iv.contentMode = .scaleToFill
iv.clipsToBounds = true
iv.backgroundColor = .red
iv.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return iv
}()
let myLabel: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Débats"
label.textColor = .white
label.textAlignment = .center
label.font = .systemFont(ofSize: 30, weight: .semibold) // set your font size here
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
Now in viewDidLoad set parameters and constraints:
myImageView.image = UIImage(named: "profilo") // set here your image
let myWidth = myLabel.intrinsicContentSize.width // This reveal only text width in label
view.addSubview(myLabel)
myLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.widthAnchor, multiplier: 0.5).isActive = true
myLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
myLabel.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor, constant: 25).isActive = true
myLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
view.addSubview(myImageView)
myImageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: myWidth).isActive = true
myImageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myImageView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
myImageView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myLabel.topAnchor).isActive = true
myImageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myLabel.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
This is the result:
Intere code:
class Aiutotipo: UIViewController {
let myImageView: UIImageView = {
let iv = UIImageView()
iv.contentMode = .scaleToFill
iv.clipsToBounds = true
iv.backgroundColor = .red
iv.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return iv
}()
let myLabel: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Débats"
label.textColor = .white
label.textAlignment = .center
label.font = .systemFont(ofSize: 30, weight: .semibold)
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
myImageView.image = UIImage(named: "profilo") // set here your image
let myWidth = myLabel.intrinsicContentSize.width // This reveal only text width in label
view.addSubview(myLabel)
myLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.widthAnchor, multiplier: 0.5).isActive = true
myLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
myLabel.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor, constant: 25).isActive = true
myLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
view.addSubview(myImageView)
myImageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: myWidth).isActive = true
myImageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myImageView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
myImageView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myLabel.topAnchor).isActive = true
myImageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: myLabel.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
}
}
