CGRect Center for Ipad

Question

I am creating an image frame using CGRect. I want to center the rectangle that is created.

I've looked on here, as well as in the Apple documentation for the best way to do this, and found CGRectGetMidY and CGRectGetMidX which get the center coordinates.

When I try implementing this into my own code I run into problems. I get a Property size not found on object of type UIIMageView error

       #import "MyViewController.h"



    @interface MyViewController ()

    @end

    @implementation MyViewController

    @synthesize mySignatureImage;
    @synthesize lastContactPoint1, lastContactPoint2, currentPoint;
    @synthesize imageFrame;
    @synthesize fingerMoved;
    @synthesize navbarHeight;

    - (id)initWithNibName:(NSString *)nibNameOrNil bundle:(NSBundle *)nibBundleOrNil
    {
        self = [super initWithNibName:nibNameOrNil bundle:nibBundleOrNil];
        if (self) {
            // Custom initialization
        }
        return self;
    }

    - (void)viewDidLoad
    {
        [super viewDidLoad];



        self.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor lightGrayColor];

        CGRect mySignatureImageFrame = CGRectMake(
                                       CGRectGetMidX(self.view.frame) - (mySignatureImage.size.width/ 2.0),
                                       CGRectGetMidY(self.view.frame) - (mySignatureImage.size.height / 2.0),
                                       image.size.width,
                                       image.size.height);




#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@interface MyViewController : UIViewController <UIAlertViewDelegate>

@property (nonatomic, strong) UIImageView *mySignatureImage;
@property (nonatomic, assign) CGPoint lastContactPoint1, lastContactPoint2, currentPoint;
@property (nonatomic, assign) CGRect imageFrame;
@property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL fingerMoved;
@property (nonatomic, assign) float navbarHeight;


@property (strong, nonatomic) NSManagedObjectContext *managedObjectContext;

Solution 1

Assuming image is of type UIImage then:

CGRect imageFrame = CGRectMake(
    CGRectGetMidX(self.view.frame) - (image.size.width / 2.0),
    CGRectGetMidY(self.view.frame) - (image.size.height / 2.0),
    image.size.width,
    image.size.height);

Assuming imageView is of type UIImageView then:

CGRect imageFrame = CGRectMake(
    CGRectGetMidX(self.view.frame) - CGRectGetMidX(imageView.frame),
    CGRectGetMidY(self.view.frame) - CGRectGetMidY(imageView.frame),
    CGRectGetWidth(imageView.frame),
    CGRectGetHeight(imageView.frame));

Solution 2

You don't need to calculate the centre point, as it's available for a view anyway:

CGRect superviewBounds = superview.bounds;
imageView.center = CGPointMake(CGRectGetMidX(superviewBounds), CGRectGetMidY(superviewBounds));

Solution 3

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {


img.center = CGPointMake(CGRectGetMidX([self.view bounds]), CGRectGetMidY([self.view   bounds]));
}
