How to find a UICollectionViewCell's coordinates relative to the App Window

Question

Is it possible to translate a UICollectionViewCell\'s coordinates from being relative to the UICollectionView to being relative to the superview<

Answer 1

This answer is very late, but hopefully it will help someone. Dan, you have the right idea, but it is even easier that what you have. Just replace

CGRect frame = CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, cell.frame.size.width, cell.frame.size.height);
frame.origin = [cell convertPoint:cell.frame.origin toView:self.view];

with

CGRect frame = [collectionView convertRect:cell.frame toView:self.view];

The problem was that you were calling the convert method on the cell, not the collectionView.
