I have a horizontal UIStackView which contains an UILabel and a UIButton.

My UILabel is correctly fitting and wrapping a the middle of the UIStackView but the issue is that my UIButton has either a truncated content in the middle or no padding.

What I do is :

        let container = UIStackView()
        self.addSubview(container)
        container.addArrangedSubview(debateName)
        container.addArrangedSubview(debateButton)
        container.axis = .horizontal
        container.distribution = .equalSpacing
        container.alignment = .center
        container.spacing = 15
        container.isLayoutMarginsRelativeArrangement = true
        container.layoutMargins = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 15, bottom: 0, right: 15)
        container.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
        
        container.addBorder(hexString: SettingsProvider.sharedInstance.borderBoxColor, width: 0.2)
        container.snp.makeConstraints { (make) -> Void in
            make.top.equalTo(self)
            make.left.equalTo(self)
            make.right.equalTo(self)
            make.height.greaterThanOrEqualTo(100)
        }
        
        myLabel.numberOfLines = 0

        myButton.setTitle(NSLocalizedString(self.textKey, comment: ""), for: .normal)
        myButton.uppercased()
        myButton.layer.cornerRadius = 6
        myButton.contentEdgeInsets = UIEdgeInsets(top: 8, left: 10, bottom: 8, right: 10)
        myButton.sizeToFit()
        myButton.addBorder(hexString: SettingsProvider.sharedInstance.borderBoxColor, width: 0.2)
        myButton.addShadow(offset: CGSize.init(width: 0, height: 1), color: UIColor.init(hexString: SettingsProvider.sharedInstance.borderBoxColor), radius: 4, opacity: 0.35)

The only thing I can do is removing contentEdgeInsets() so I can have my content not truncated but I lose my padding :

Is there any way to combine those two requirements ?

CodePudding user response：

Couple things...

• on your stack view, set .distribution = .fill instead of .equalSpacing. You have only two arranged subviews (there's only one space)
• you shouldn't need myButton.sizeToFit()

Add this line to your button setup:

myButton.setContentCompressionResistancePriority(.required, for: .horizontal)

That should prevent your button from compressing / truncating its label.
