How to set a max limit for an IBInspectable Int

Question

I am using an IBInspectable Int in Swift to choose between 4 four shapes (0-3), however it is possible in the storyboard editor to set a value greater than 3 and less than 0

Answer 1

There's no way to limit what a user can input in Storyboard. However, you could prevent invalid values from being stored using a computed property:

  @IBInspectable var shapeType: Int {
    set(newValue) {
      internalShapeType = min(newValue, 3)
    }
    get {
      return internalShapeType
    }
  }

  var internalShapeType: Int = 0

Then you could also use an enum instead of constants to represent your different shape types internally.
