Evenly space multiple views within a container view

Question

Auto Layout is making my life difficult. In theory, it was going to be really useful when I switched, but I seem to fight it all of the time.

I\'ve made a demo proje

Answer 1

I found a perfect and simple method. The auto layout does not allow you to resize the spaces equally, but it does allow you to resize views equally. Simply put some invisible views in between your fields and tell auto layout to keep them the same size. It works perfectly!

One thing of note though; when I reduced the size in the interface designer, sometimes it got confused and left a label where it was, and it had a conflict if the size was changed by an odd amount. Otherwise it worked perfectly.

edit: I found that the conflict became a problem. Because of that, I took one of the spacing constraints, deleted it and replaced it with two constraints, a greater-than-or-equal and a less-than-or-equal. Both were the same size and had a much lower priority than the other constraints. The result was no further conflict.
