How do I set cell spacing in a section of UICollectionView
? I know there is a property minimumInteritemSpacing
I have set it to 5.0 still the spacing is not appearing 5.0. I have implemented the flowout delegate method.
- (CGFloat)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAtIndex:(NSInteger)section
{
return 5.0;
}
still I am not getting the desired result. I think its the minimum spacing . Isn't there any way by which I can set the maximum spacing?
I know that the topic is old, but in case anyone still needs correct answer here what you need:
Add implementation like that:
- (NSArray *) layoutAttributesForElementsInRect:(CGRect)rect {
NSArray *answer = [super layoutAttributesForElementsInRect:rect];
for(int i = 1; i < [answer count]; ++i) {
UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes *currentLayoutAttributes = answer[i];
UICollectionViewLayoutAttributes *prevLayoutAttributes = answer[i - 1];
NSInteger maximumSpacing = 4;
NSInteger origin = CGRectGetMaxX(prevLayoutAttributes.frame);
if(origin + maximumSpacing + currentLayoutAttributes.frame.size.width < self.collectionViewContentSize.width) {
CGRect frame = currentLayoutAttributes.frame;
frame.origin.x = origin + maximumSpacing;
currentLayoutAttributes.frame = frame;
}
}
return answer;
}
where maximumSpacing could be set to any value you prefer. This trick guarantees that the space between cells would be EXACTLY equal to maximumSpacing!!
