Creating Adaptivity

• Launch.storyboard

• Full iPad rotation

• UITraitCollection

Mechanics

Apps Must Use A Launch.Storyboard

Apps Must Allow Full RotationSetting in Info.plist

Different Use Cases

Responding To Changes

Multitasking Order

•applicationWillResignActive

•willTransitionToTraitCollection

•viewWillTransitionToSize

•traitCollectionDidChange

•applicationDidBecomeActive

Multitasking Order

Only Constraint Constants Can Change

Tips, Tricks, Gotchas

Autolayout

Rotation APIs

UISplitViewController

Compact == Modal

Still Can’t Be Pushed

Can Be Embedded

UIPopoverPresentationController

Also Fullscreen In Compact

UIPresentationController

Set modalPresentationStyle To .Custom

adaptivePresentationStyleForTraitCollection:

UICollectionView

Don’t rely on shouldInvalidateLayoutForBoundsChange

prepareLayout() may have incorrect traits

use both willTransitionToTraitCollection,

viewWillTransitionToSize

UITraitCollection Support Has Been Added To Older Components

Storyboards and Xibs

Frames Change When Size Class Changes

First Time In A New Size Class Adds Info To File

Misplaced Views In Different Size Classes

Installed Views And Constraints Only Work From Storyboards And Xibs

Conditional Constraint Constants Only Work From Storyboards And Xibs

Any x Any

Constraints Must Be Set For Any x AnyEven though no devices have that size class configuration

Pick A Size Class To Use For Any x Any

Interface Builder Warnings

UI Will Look Weird

Use Constraint Priorities
