Artwork is stretching

I followed the code word for word, but when I run the app, the artwork stretches horizontally very noticably. The only thing I can think of is that my version of XCode (10.1) could have behavioral differences.

Is anyone else having a similar issue?

Which course/video is this for?

2 Answers

Did you set your content mode on the image to Aspect Fit? By default it is Scale to Fill which would cause the horizontal stretching.

artworkView.contentMode = .scaleAspectFit

Also make sure that the 'Beginning' image in storyboards for ViewController is set to aspect fill.

Brandon Mahoney,

The course is "Build an Interactive Story App with Swift" and the specific video is titled "Creating Views Programmatically". I believe it's in the third part of the course

Thanks
