It seems like you're interested in UI layout, particularly in the context of Apple's WWDC sessions. Here are some relevant insights from the sessions:
-
Design Advanced Games for Apple Platforms: This session discusses how to handle UI layout across different device aspect ratios. It suggests breaking your UI layout into separate sections anchored to specific sides of the screen to maintain consistent sizes and distances, ensuring controls remain comfortable for users across devices. This approach helps in making the best use of screen space and keeping UI elements reachable and appropriately sized. Design advanced games for Apple platforms (06:28).
-
What’s New in UIKit: This session introduces automatic trait tracking in iOS 18, which simplifies handling changes in UI traits. UIKit now supports automatic trait tracking, which means it automatically performs invalidation for methods like
layoutSubviews
when traits change, reducing the need for manual updates. This can significantly streamline the process of adapting UI layouts to different conditions. What’s new in UIKit (06:02). -
Get Started with Dynamic Type: This session covers how to use
UIStackView
in UIKit to dynamically adjust layouts in response to changes in text size, especially for accessibility. It emphasizes the importance of subscribing to content size category changes and updating layouts accordingly to ensure text remains readable and UI elements are well-proportioned. Get started with Dynamic Type (06:00).
These sessions provide valuable insights into creating adaptable and responsive UI layouts across different Apple platforms. If you have more specific questions or need further details, feel free to ask!
