Arranged 2.2

Arranged.StackView

Open source replacement of UIStackView for iOS 8 (100% layouts supported)

  • Supports all alignments and distributions, spacing, baselineRelativeArrangement, layoutMarginsRelativeArrangement, axis
  • Unit tested, thousands of layouts covered
  • Supports animations
  • Generates exactly the same sets of constraints as UIStackView:

UIStackView (Alignment.Leading, Distribution.FillEqually)

<'UISV-alignment' content-view-1.top == content-view-2.top>
<'UISV-canvas-connection' UIStackView:0x7f9cf4816930.leading == content-view-1.leading>

<'UISV-canvas-connection' UIStackView:0x7f9cf4816930.top == content-view-1.top>

Usage

Arranged.StackView is used the same way UIStackView is:

let stackView = StackView(arrangedSubviews: [view1, view2, view3])
stackView.alignment = .leading
stackView.distribution = .fillEqually
stackView.spacing = 20
stackView.axis = .vertical
stackView.isLayoutMarginsRelativeArrangement = true

The only difference is hiding items:

UIView.animateWithDuration(0.33) {
    stackView.setArrangedView(view, hidden: true)
    stackView.layoutIfNeeded()
}

Requirements

  • iOS 8.0, tvOS 9.0
  • Xcode 9
  • Swift 4

Getting Started

  • Get a demo project using pod try Arranged command
  • Install, import Arranged and enjoy!

Differences

  • UIStackView observes hidden property of arranged views, delays its effect if called inside animation block, and updates constraints accordingly. I believe this behavior is confusing and impractical to implement. Arranged.StackView provides a straightforward method setArrangedView(_:hidden:) which updates constraints exactly the same way as UIStackView does, but it doesn't affect hidden property.
  • Animations require you to call view.layoutIfNeeded() - just like with any regular layout
  • StackViewDistribution.FillProportionally doesn't update its constrains when intrinsicContentSize of arranged views changes due to the fact that UIStackView uses private API (_intrinsicContentSizeInvalidatedForChildView) to achieve that
  • UISV-text-width-disambiguation constraints are not implemented because they are not documented (and you probably should disambiguate text views the way that fits your app anyway)
