How can I get the width and height of the UIView created in the storyboard?

I just created a UIView in the storyboard and set the height to 200, and width to 30 in the storyboard. However, after I drag it to the coding and write:

CGRect graphFrame = CGRectMake(0, 0, self.graphView.frame.size.width, self.graphView.frame.size.height);
NSLog(@"Width: %f, Height: %f", graphFrame.size.width, graphFrame.size.height);

It always print out 320, 568; Instead of the 30, 200

Personally I hate using CGRectMake. I would recommend using Masonry cocoa pod. It really makes interface building easier through code.

If you don't know what CocoaPods is, here is a funny video from Google: Route 85: An Introduction to CocoaPods
