In my code below: I have 5 buttons added into a vertical scrollView. Each button is constrained to the scrollViews's top + 20 ,leading, trailing edges and its height. I have created a b1HeightConstraint variable. It's there to hold the heightConstraint of the b1 button.
In a button click, I'm trying to remove this constraint. Yet I'm facing an odd issue:
When I log the constraints I only see 2 constraints, even though I've added 4 constraints to it. My the view debug hierarchy is like below:
import UIKit
import Foundation
class ViewController: UIViewController {
var filterView: UIView!
var scrollView: UIScrollView!
var containerView: UIView!
override func loadView() {
filterView = UIView()
view = filterView
view.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.909803926944733, green: 0.47843137383461, blue: 0.643137276172638, alpha: 1.0)
scrollView = UIScrollView()
scrollView.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.474509805440903, green: 0.839215695858002, blue: 0.976470589637756, alpha: 1.0)
view.addSubview(scrollView)
scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
scrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.widthAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.heightAnchor, multiplier: 1).isActive = true
scrollView.isScrollEnabled = true
containerView = UIView()
containerView.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.176470592617989, green: 0.498039215803146, blue: 0.756862759590149, alpha: 1.0)
scrollView.addSubview(containerView)
containerView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
// This is key: connect all four edges of the containerView to
// to the edges of the scrollView
containerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
// Making containerView and scrollView the same height means the
// content will not scroll vertically
containerView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
}
let b1 = Buttons(titleText: "one")
let b2 = Buttons(titleText: "two")
let b3 = Buttons(titleText: "three")
let b4 = Buttons(titleText: "four")
let b5 = Buttons(titleText: "five")
var b1HeightConstraint : NSLayoutConstraint?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let buttonArray = [b1, b2, b3, b4, b5]
b1.button.addTarget(self, action: #selector(ViewController.shrink(_:)), for: .touchUpInside)
var startPoint = containerView.topAnchor
for btn in buttonArray {
let theBtn = btn.button
containerView.addSubview(theBtn)
theBtn.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
theBtn.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: startPoint, constant: 20).isActive = true
theBtn.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
theBtn.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
theBtn.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.heightAnchor).isActive = true
startPoint = theBtn.bottomAnchor
let btnHeight = theBtn.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.heightAnchor)
if btn == b1{
b1HeightConstraint = btnHeight
}
}
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: startPoint, constant: 20).isActive = true
}
@objc func shrink(_ sender: Any){
guard let btn = sender as? UIButton else{
return
}
print("count is: \(btn.constraints.count)")
btn.removeConstraint(b1HeightConstraint!)
containerView.removeConstraint(b1HeightConstraint!)
print("count is: \(btn.constraints.count)")
containerView.updateConstraintsIfNeeded()
containerView.updateConstraints()
scrollView.updateConstraintsIfNeeded()
scrollView.updateConstraints()
}
}
class Buttons : NSObject {
let button = UIButton()
init(titleText: String) {
button.backgroundColor = #colorLiteral(red: 0.976470589637756, green: 0.850980401039124, blue: 0.549019634723663, alpha: 1.0)
button.setTitle(titleText, for: .normal)
}
}
The code is ready to just be dumpped in the ViewController class. Works out of the box. My code is a spinoff of the code written here
from Why isn't UIButton returning correct constraints?
