rightAnchor constraint did not apply when added programmatically - swift

Question

When I Added rightAnchor constraint, constant= 20 did not apply. In leftAnchor is ok

override init(frame: CGRect) {
    super.init(frame: frame)

    addSubview         


        

Answer 1

I have a really strong feeling that this is what you wanted to do there for rightAnchor.

collectionView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: rightAnchor, constant: -20)

If you want padding from the right or bottom you should use negative values.

Rule of thumb: Whatever is left or upwards of something is negative.
