heightAnchor.constraint not change height of view

Question

I use this code:

func show(){
    view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    view.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: view.frame.height - 300).isActive = true
    view.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.rightAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
}

func hide(){
    view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    view.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: view.frame.height + 300).isActive = true
    view.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.rightAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
}

show function works fine, but hide function does not work and heightAnchor does not work.

Answer 1

First declare constraints

var heightArchonWhenShow = view.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: view.frame.height - 300)
var heightArchonWhenHide = view.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: view.frame.height + 300)

After init your constraints on ViewDidLoad

func setConstraints(){
    view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
    view.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    view.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.rightAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
    heightArchonWhenShow.isActive = true
}

And simple active them , don't overwrite. Like this:

func show(){
    heightArchonWhenShow.isActive = true
    heightArchonWhenHide.isActive = false
}

func hide(){
    heightArchonWhenShow.isActive = false
    heightArchonWhenHide.isActive = true
}

If u want u can also animate changes, like that :

func hide(){
    heightArchonWhenShow.isActive = false
    heightArchonWhenHide.isActive = true

    UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.3) {
        self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
    }
}
