Sum of Two CGRect

Question

how to get sum of two CGRect

CGRect requiredFirst = [firstName boundingRectWithSize:constrainedSize options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin context:nil];

CGRect requiredLast = [lastName boundingRectWithSize:constrainedSize options:NSStringDrawingUsesLineFragmentOrigin context:nil];

CGRect height = ???

Answer 1

Here's an example of a method that will do that:

- (CGRect)combineFrames:(CGRect)frame1, f2:(CGRect)frame2{
    CGFloat x = frame1.origin.x + frame2.origin.x;
    CGFloat y = frame1.origin.y + frame2.origin.y;
    CGFloat width = frame1.size.width + frame2.size.width;
    CGFloat height = frame1.size.height + frame2.size.height;

    CGRect combinedFrame = CGRectMake(x, y, width, height);
    return combinedFrame;
}

This method just adds all four of the frame's aspects (x, y, width, height) together individually then reconstructs it and returns it. Use it like this:

CGRect combinedFrame = [self combineFrames:requiredFirst, f2:requiredLast];
CGFloat height = combinedFrame.size.height;
