Set the center of a UIButton programmatically - SWIFT

Question

I have a UIButton inside a UIView, my UIButton has constraints which I set in storyboard. Now, I want to set the center of the UIBut

Answer 1

since you are using constraints, you won't be able to set the center so you need to use constraints to set the center as well:

    let centerYCon = NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelMessage,
        attribute: .CenterY,
        relatedBy: .Equal,
        toItem: contentView,
        attribute: .CenterY,
        multiplier: 1.0,
        constant: 0.0);
    contentView.addConstraint(centerYCon);


    let centerXCon = NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelMessage,
        attribute: .CenterX,
        relatedBy: .Equal,
        toItem: contentView,
        attribute: .CenterX,
        multiplier: 1.0,
        constant: 0.0);
    contentView.addConstraint(centerXCon);

I'm assuming that you know what "programmatically" means with autolayout constraints. If you are truly using autolayout then you must have set the properties of your button to setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints to false.
