Why gradient doesn't cover the whole width of the view

I\'m trying to apply a gradient to a view which is constraint to the top, left and right of the main screen but for some reason the gradient doesn\'t cover the whole width o

Answer 1

You can simplify it by CustomClass with one line of code

class GradientView: UIView {
   override class var layerClass: Swift.AnyClass {
      return CAGradientLayer.self
   }
}


// MARK: Usage

@IBOutlet weak var myView: GradientView!

guard let gradientLayer = myView.layer as? CAGradientLayer else { return }
gradient.colors = [UIColor.blue.cgColor, UIColor.white.cgColor]
gradient.startPoint = CGPoint(x: 0.0, y: 0.0)
gradient.endPoint = CGPoint(x:0, y:0.6)
