My app have a basic login screen, an outer box and in it, some textfield and buttons. I set the box to fill the screen. However, on some devices this box will to big. I want to set a maximum width and height to it.
How do I set maximum width and height to a view?
You can use auto-layout constraints so that the box adapts to the screen size, but does not exceed a given width and height. To do this, set a "less than or equal to" constraint on the width and height.
If you want to give a View's frame to fix all devices then use this width and height
self.view.frame.size.width,self.view.frame.size.height
Or You can give auto layouts Top Bottom Trailing and Leading constraints by dragging the View to its edges.
If you are using Interface Builder you could :
ctrl + clic your view and drag the blue arrow to the superview.
Hold shift and select "equal width" and "equal height"
Then go to the constraints of your view (little ruler icon) and set a multiplier like 0.5 to make your view width/height equal to half of its superview respective dimension.
UIView *viw=[UIView alloc]init]; viw.frame=CGRectMake(x,y,CGFLOAT_MAX,h); Simple you use only four constraints (i.e Top space,Bottom space,Leading space,Trailing space) for that container view.
Try following code it may helps you
yourviewObject.frame=CGRectMake(yourviewObject.frame.origin.x,yourviewObject.frame.origin.y,self.view.frame.size.width,yourviewObject.frame.size.height)
