I have an App in TestFlight that looks wrong because the fonts are too large. The problem shows up only on one tester's iPhone 13 Pro. If I look at the app in the Simulator, it looks as it should. The App in an earlier version looks fine on the user's phone downloaded from the App store. The App also looks fine for a TestFlight user using an iPhone 12. On the problem phone, the font, Avenir Next Condensed, works fine, but it is just too large, so a text heading becomes garbled. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I have a UICollectionView child controller embedded in a container view to serve as a photo gallery. I have put a scrollview into the collection view cell and then layered on an imageview. Everything works fine. I can zoom in the cell, but when I move to the edge, the underlying collectionview scrollview takes over and I move to a new page. That's what I want, but I also want to reset the zoom scale (to 1.0) of the cell I just letf. Any suggestions as to how to do this?zooming the cell in the collectionview cell:import UIKitclass PlantPhotoCell: UICollectionViewCell, UIScrollViewDelegate { @IBOutlet weak var imageView: UIImageView! @IBOutlet weak var scrollView: UIScrollView! override func awakeFromNib() { self.scrollView.minimumZoomScale = 1.0 self.scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 4.0 self.scrollView.delegate = self } func viewForZooming(in scrollView: UIScrollView) -> UIView? { return self.imageView }}Cell definition and paging (Paging turned on in Storyboard): override func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, cellForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath ) -> UICollectionViewCell { let cell = collectionView .dequeueReusableCell(withReuseIdentifier: reuseIdentifier, for: indexPath) as! PlantPhotoCell let image = plantImgArray[indexPath.item] cell.imageView.image = image cell.imageView.layer.borderColor = UIColor.white.cgColor cell.imageView.layer.borderWidth = 6 let title1 = UILabel(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: cell.bounds.size.height - 20, width: cell.bounds.size.width, height:20)) let label = plantDesc[indexPath.item] title1.text = label title1.font = UIFont(name: "AvenirNextCondensed-Medium", size: 20)! title1.backgroundColor = .white title1.textAlignment = .center cell.contentView.addSubview(title1) return cell } override func scrollViewDidEndDecelerating(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) { let pageNumber = round(scrollView.contentOffset.x / scrollView.frame.size.width) pageControl.currentPage = Int(pageNumber) }Thanks for suggestions.
I am experiencing a problem with the latest version of Xcode, version 11 (now 11.3). I have a tab bar that has one too many items to fit and so has a More list tableview to the final two selections (tabs). This works fine, but when I change the appearance of the UIMoreListTableView, the changes happen when the tableview is not (yet) in the view hierarchy, resulting in a warning. This doesn't appear to cause a problem in practice, but I would like to be able to remove the warning. Here is the text of the warning I get:2019-12-29 07:37:30.880610-0600 DunePlants[1545:546936] [TableView] Warning once only: UITableView was told to layout its visible cells and other contents without being in the view hierarchy (the table view or one of its superviews has not been added to a window). This may cause bugs by forcing views inside the table view to load and perform layout without accurate information (e.g. table view bounds, trait collection, layout margins, safe area insets, etc), and will also cause unnecessary performance overhead due to extra layout passes. Make a symbolic breakpoint at UITableViewAlertForLayoutOutsideViewHierarchy to catch this in the debugger and see what caused this to occur, so you can avoid this action altogether if possible, or defer it until the table view has been added to a window. Table view: <_UIMoreListTableView: 0x10604c000; frame = (0 20; 375 647); clipsToBounds = YES; autoresize = W+H; tintColor = <UIDynamicCatalogColor: 0x2839d4540; name = ERG-green>; gestureRecognizers = <NSArray: 0x283903150>; layer = <CALayer: 0x28374b960>; contentOffset: {0, 0}; contentSize: {375, 88}; adjustedContentInset: {0, 0, 0, 0}; dataSource: <UIMoreListController: 0x105266770>>If I don't try to set the font and tintColor of the More List TableView, I don't get a warning. But I want to use a font and color consistent with my choices for the rest of the App. Here is the code I use:class ERGViewController: UITabBarController { override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() } override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) { //Next line gets rid of edit button and ability to reorder tabs. moreNavigationController.topViewController?.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = nil //If above line is commented out, you need to color the Edit button appropriately moreNavigationController.topViewController?.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem?.tintColor = UIColor.custom if let moreList = moreNavigationController.viewControllers.first(where: { String(describing: type(of: $0)) == "UIMoreListController" }) { moreList.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem = UIBarButtonItem(title: "", style: .plain, target: nil, action: nil) moreList.navigationItem.backBarButtonItem?.tintColor = UIColor.custom } tabBarController?.customizableViewControllers = [] if let moreTableView = moreNavigationController.topViewController?.view as? UITableView { moreTableView.tintColor = UIColor.custom for cell in moreTableView.visibleCells { cell.tintColor = UIColor.custom cell.textLabel?.font = UIFont(name: "AvenirNextCondensed-Medium", size: 20) } } }}Is there someplace better to set the font and tintColor?

I have an app that features dynamic tableviews that seem to work well on almost every device. Here is a view of an app table on the 11 Pro Max simulator, where everything looks fine.When I run the app on an iPhone XS Max, the thumbnail images get set to the full width of the device, and the accessory views get written over the top, but the title and subtitle get written over. Like this:I tried forcing the image frame to be 44 wide by 44 high, but this seemed to have no effect. The code I used was in cellForRowAt and looked as follows: cell.imageView?.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 44, height: 44) cell.imageView?.image = UIImage(named: plant.gallery[0])I cannot see if the problem comes in a simulator since Xcode 11.3 doesn't have simulators for the XS Max.So my questions are two. Why doesn't the imageView frame control the image size, and why does the problem only seem to show up with the XS Max (though I haven't seen if it arises for the XS)?

I have a tableview that feeds a detail view. The detail view includes a collection view. When I run the app and select a detail view from the table view, the collection view looks fine. But if I return to the tableview and select a different detail view, the detail view updates, but even though the images fed to the collection view are updated (checked by printing them in viewDidLoad), the images in the collection view are the previous images (determined by the inital choice of a detail view). So apparently I need to clean out the reuseable cells, but despite attempts to prepareForReuse and/or reloadData, I must not be doing this correctly. I'd appreciate suggestions about how to force the imageview in my collection view cell to recognize new images.
I have an array of strings, call it plants = [Plant](), where each of the strings is a plant characteristic. I read in the plant characteristics from a spreadsheet, breaking each record into individual characteristics with tabs for each cell. One characteristic is an image name that I use for a closeup image. I would like to replace the image name with an array of image names that I pass to a UICollectionView in place of the UIImageView I show for the single image. So I would like to modify the spreadsheet to have a cell that could be either image1, as now, or image1, image2, image 3, ... and read the resulting array in for the collection, which could have one or more images. I have no problem with the collectionview from string literals, but reading in the multiple images would seem to involve mixing an array of strings into my string array, and I am not clear whether that is possible. Is there an obvious way to do this? Sorry for the novice question.

I have been building an App with a number of images and have found it difficult to obtain information on how large I should save jpgs and how much I should compress them. I understand that the largest 3x screen size is 1242 x 2688 and that for 2x it is 828 x 1792, but that's for full screen. If I were designing for portrait mode, I could reduce those images by using the safe area size assuming I have everwhere a nav bar and a tab bar. I could figure that out, even though there is very little info I can find. But then there is the problem of landscape, where the nav bar is really different and the image is a slice out of the center of the image as designed for portrait. So do I use the width of the safe area in landscape for the biggest phone (right now Xs Max, Xr), and create an image that has the aspect ratio for the vertical dimension set correspondingly? That's a pretty big image, and I am worried about the overall size of the assets catalog. What if I want to be prepared for a universal app, so that I prepare images for the iPads? What I am looking for is advice on how large to make an image that will be in an imageview that takes the whole safe area of a view controller for (at least) iphones and that will not require me to redo all my images with new devices in the near future. Needs to work for portrait and landscape, but cannot be too large. Am I missing some Apple documentation? I am not finding good advice in last year's WWDC videos, but I haven't watched everything, so I'd either like a recommendation for an image size and compression I can feed into, say, GIMP 10.2, or a pointer to more reading. Thanks in advance.

I have a tableview with a search bar and scope bar beneath. When the user choses an option from the scope bar, I want to reload the tableview with the filtered items, change the scope bar, and then refilter given choices from the new scope bar. It is easy enough to do the first two parts, func filterContentForSearchText(_ searchText: String, scope: String = "All") { tfilteredPlants = trees.filter({( plant : Plant) -> Bool in let doesTreeMatch = (scope == "All") || (plant.TreeShrub == scope) if searchBarIsEmpty() { return doesTreeMatch } else { return doesTreeMatch && plant.commonName.lowercased().contains(searchText.lowercased()) } }) if scope == "Shrub" { print("Shrub") treeSearchController.searchBar.scopeButtonTitles = ["All Leaf Types", "Simple", "Compound"] } tableView.reloadData() }But now I want to match a different variable, call it Leaf, based on Compound or Simple being chosen, And I would like to filter again based on that. I could add a sequence of view controllers and segue between them, which would be messy but possible, but I was wondering whether there was a more compact approach.

I have a series of table view controllers that each connect to a common detail view controller. In the detail view controller, I include a viewWillAppear function that issues self.navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: animated)This gives me the whole page for my detail view, except for a tab bar controller at the bottom that permits the user to return to one of the table view controllers. I issue the same command with false instead of true in viewWillDisappear to ensure that the navigationBar is visible when I return to the table views.This works fine. All of the table view controllers have a navigationBar that includes a searchBar. But one of the table view controllers also has a scope bar that appears when the search bar is clicked. The search bar moves to the top of the screen and the scope bar appears beneath. I am following the instructions in a tutorial I found online, and it seems to work fine, except that there must be something I am missing involving a reset as part of the segue. The reason I say that is that when I connect from a table for a selected row chosen with the scope bar shown, the detail view screen that appears ignores the setNavigationBarHidden request in viewWIllAppear and I get some blank screen at the top. A lot of blank screen.I can fix this by adding the setNavigationBarHidden request in viewDidAppear, but that's a bit clunky as the blank navigation bar appears before disappearing. I am assuming that the demise of the scope bar is associated with a viewWillDisappear or some such that overrides the viewWillAppear on the next screen, but I cannot figure out where and would appreciate suggestions. This is my first question to the forum, and I apologize in advance for any naivete.
