How to change space between cells in UICollectionV

Question

I want to reduce the size between cells in row. Now it looks like:

I'm trying this, for reduce the size between them:

let layout: UICollectionViewFlowLayout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
layout.sectionInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 20, left: 2, bottom: 10, right: 2)
layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
layout.minimumLineSpacing = 0

but it doesn't help me. What I do wrong?

Answer 1

If you create CollectionView In StoryBoard or Xib,Go to StoryBoard or Xib and set these Values from

Answer 2

extension ViewController: UICollectionViewDelegateFlowLayout {
        func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
            let collectionWidth = collectionView.bounds.width
            return CGSize(width: collectionWidth, height: collectionWidth/2)
        }
        func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumLineSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
            return 0
        }
        func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, minimumInteritemSpacingForSectionAt section: Int) -> CGFloat {
            return 100
        }
    }

Answer 3

Swift 5 Programmatically

lazy var collectionView: UICollectionView = {
        let layout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
        layout.scrollDirection = .horizontal

        //Provide Width and Height According to your need
        let width = UIScreen.main.bounds.width / 4
        let height = UIScreen.main.bounds.height / 10
        layout.itemSize = CGSize(width: width, height: height)

        //Make Space as Zero
        layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
        layout.minimumLineSpacing = 0

        return UICollectionView(frame: self.view.frame, collectionViewLayout: layout)
    }()

You can provide much more customization inside the lazy collectionView Block.

Answer 4

On your code, you have to create a IBOutlet to your collection view, and then assign the collectionViewLayout as such:

let layout: UICollectionViewFlowLayout = UICollectionViewFlowLayout()
layout.sectionInset = UIEdgeInsets(top: 20, left: 2, bottom: 10, right: 2)
layout.minimumInteritemSpacing = 0
layout.minimumLineSpacing = 0
collectionView!.collectionViewLayout = layout

Answer 5

Its simple

let layout = contactsCollectionView.collectionViewLayout as? UICollectionViewFlowLayout
layout?.minimumLineSpacing = 8

Answer 6

//Objective c
- (CGSize)collectionView:(UICollectionView *)collectionView layout:(UICollectionViewLayout*)collectionViewLayout sizeForItemAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath {
        return CGSizeMake((collectionView.frame.size.width/3)-20, 100);
    }

// Swift 2.0

func collectionView(collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAtIndexPath indexPath: NSIndexPath) -> CGSize {
    return CGSizeMake((collectionView.frame.size.width / 3) - 20, 100)
}

// Swift 3.0
override func collectionView(_ collectionView: UICollectionView, layout collectionViewLayout: UICollectionViewLayout, sizeForItemAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGSize {
    return CGSize(width: CGFloat((collectionView.frame.size.width / 3) - 20), height: CGFloat(100))
}
