    @colinta is there any way to retrieve a constraint after it has already been made and you've lost the reference to it?
    keeping a reference throws a WeakRef err

    @divmgl
    for now i'll just create the cell every time and set the constraints afterwards, but it would nice to know why the constraint is collected by the GC!

    @divmgl if you can post some code somewhere, I can try to take a look. cells have always been a sore spot in mkit.
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    eh
    i'm sure my code is absolute shit
    at this point i'm trying to contain everything inside of a UIView and then place it inside a UITableViewCell instead of having like eight subviews in the UITableViewCell
    i'm basically just trying to use dynamic heights in a UITableViewCell
    like if i have a label with 5 lines i want the UITableViewCell to adjust but holy shit its proving to be such a bitch. i keep running into problems one way or another
    Colin T.A. Gray
    @colinta
    yeah that can be a tricky one
    you're using constraints to "auto size" the cells, or are you using heightForRowAtIndexPath?
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    autosize and with constraints
    do you think heightforrow would work better?
    Colin T.A. Gray
    @colinta
    dunno, i'm old school so i never use autosize w/ constraints, always heightforrow
    e.g.
    def heightForText(attributedText, tableWidth)
    minHeight = 30.0
    textWidth = tableWidth - (Size.margins.left + Size.margins.right + Size.textMargins.left + Size.textMargins.right)
    tv = generateTextView()
    tv.attributedText = attributedText
    tvSize = tv.sizeThatFits(CGSize.new(textWidth, _000_000))
    heightPadding = Size.margins.top + Size.margins.bottom + Size.textMargins.top + Size.textMargins.bottom
    textHeight = heightPadding + tvSize.height.round()
    return [minHeight, textHeight].max
end
    that'll size a UITextView
    UILabel is pretty much the same

    O_O
    jesus lmao
    yea im gonna have to think about my design a little more ill send you some code in a min
    doing some tests righ tnow
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    by the way, i appreciate all of your help. i'm flattered that you take a few min out of your day to help me out

    so basically, i layout everything here using constraints and then i call

    @divmgl
    sorry i can't copy/paste from vnc lol at work rn
    making a reddit client and its going well just having a few issues with constraints here and there. i would say like 80% of my time i'm messing around with the constraints trying to get them to work
    i usually can go around this by adding preferred_max_layout_width but i'm having a tough time getting the width of the label from inside of the UITableViewCell
    welp, look like i fixed it
    blob
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    preferred_max_layout_width superview.frame.size.width
    Colin T.A. Gray
    @colinta
    nice!
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    now im running into another problem...if the text for the string is too long it completely disappears -_-. why is this so inconsistent lol
    so have you released any apps into production on rubymotion?
    Colin T.A. Gray
    @colinta
    oh yeah, a few, Jukely was a big one
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    Dude this is a seriously impressive app
    Holy fucking shit
    Dexter Miguel
    @divmgl
    so you mentioned to me that you build all of your UITableViewCell manually?
    i'm still having a really tough time with this and I'm thinking of letting go of building UITableViewCells with MotionKit layouts
    making UITableViewCells work with autolayout is extremely tough in rubymotion

    @theCrab
    So. This is a dead channel then? Where's the official RubyMotion channel?
    How do I check if a string.empty? In RM
    Aleksandr Lossenko
    @egze
    "string".empty?
    rubymotion channel is in rubymotion/rubymotion
    The Crab
    @theCrab
    RM doesn't support empty? yet
    @egze thanks for that channel name, but ^^^
    Aleksandr Lossenko
    @egze
    how about "string".length > 0 ?
    The Crab
    @theCrab
    That's the way to go.
    @egze just checking. It's not working either. Version 4.9
