Besides viewWillLayoutSubviews, to get the current sizes and correctly position elements in iOS, you can use:
-
viewDidLayoutSubviews— called after the system has laid out subviews. Here, you can safely read and use the actual sizes. -
layoutSubviews(for UIView) — called when the view needs to update the layout of its subviews. You can override it for custom layout logic. -
viewWillTransition(to:with:)— called when the view's size changes, such as during device rotation. -
Auto Layout mechanisms — using constraints allows the system to calculate sizes and positions automatically.
Example of using viewDidLayoutSubviews:
override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
// Here, you can get the actual sizes of the view and subviews
let width = someSubview.frame.width
// Update layout or sizes of elements
}
