To create a UIImageView
programmatically, all you need to do is create an instance of UIImageView
:
//Swift
let imageView = UIImageView()
//Objective-C
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
You can set the size and position of the UIImageView
with a CGRect
:
//Swift
imageView.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 200)
//Objective-C
imageView.frame = CGRectMake(0,0,200,200);
Or you can set the size during initialization:
//Swift
UIImageView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 200, height: 200))
//Objective-C
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,0,200,200);
//Alternative way of defining frame for UIImageView
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] init];
CGRect imageViewFrame = imageView.frame;
imageViewFrame.size.width = 200;
imageViewFrame.size.height = 200;
imageViewFrame.origin.x = 0;
imageViewFrame.origin.y = 0;
imageView.frame = imageViewFrame;
Note: You must import
UIKit
to use aUIImageView
.
