ImageView layout still not sized appropriately. Same constraints as Pasan applied...?

Assuming that all 6 ImageView constraints are identical to Pasan's, could there be any other reasons why they're not sizing appropriately on my iPhone 6? It seems as if the 157x165 heightxwidth constraints may be off.

How are your images appearing in the preview of the app? Are the off-centered or simply off the page?

Heights and widths for all ImageViews are off. Widths are identical among tiles on the left, just as they're identical among tiles on the right. Right tile widths are ~1.5x left tile widths and stretch across the center.

Heights are largest among both bottom tiles, as the top four tile heights are a bit compressed. Looks like a height AND width problem to me. If you need to see a screenshot, let me know how I can post one in this forum.

I believe that they should all be px apart from each other according to the video. Do you also have equal widths and heights set for both?

Also one thing that you could do which I do from time to time it download the project from the downloads option. This will allow you to compare your project to pasan's project to see what is different.

Let me know.

Thanks

Hey Chris, I downloaded the project file and took a good look. I had all of my tiles with height constraints of 165 and width constraints of 157, as opposed to "Equal Constraints." Not sure why that made the difference, if theoretically all tiles have the same height/width constraints and are both horizontally and vertically pinned to one another. Thoughts?

As the display size changes the constraints will change as well. So setting equal constraints ensures that all objects change at the same time as the display size changes.
