UIView frames reset when using autolayout

Question

I\'m facing an issue. I\'m working on an app and I\'m using storyboard with Autolayout enabled. Now on one of my UIViewControllers

Answer 1

For all the views that you are animating write the following code in viewDidLoad

myViewToAnimate.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = YES;

Hope this helps

Answer 2

The reason is Autolayout will update the views to their original position. The Autolayout system will periodically set the position and size of every view in your view hierarchy based on the layout constraints.

Answer 3

Add this:

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
    super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
    VIEWTOFIX.setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints(true)
}

Putting it in viewDidLayoutSubviews instead of viewDidLoad got rid of the layout constraint errors for me.
