NSCollectionViewFlowLayout -左对齐

Question

NSCollectionViewFlowLayout生成一个布局，项目在右边距对齐，或者，如果容器仅够容纳一个项目，则项目居中。我期待一个对齐选项，例如在委托上，但在文档中找不到任何东西。是否需要对NSCollectionViewFlowLayout进行子类化才能实现此目的？

Answer 1

下面是一个子类，它产生一个左对齐的流布局：

class LeftFlowLayout: NSCollectionViewFlowLayout {

    override func layoutAttributesForElementsInRect(rect: CGRect) -> [NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes] {

        let defaultAttributes = super.layoutAttributesForElementsInRect(rect)

        if defaultAttributes.isEmpty {
            // we rely on 0th element being present,
            // bail if missing (when there's no work to do anyway)
            return defaultAttributes
        }

        var leftAlignedAttributes = [NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes]()

        var xCursor = self.sectionInset.left // left margin

        // if/when there is a new row, we want to start at left margin
        // the default FlowLayout will sometimes centre items,
        // i.e. new rows do not always start at the left edge

        var lastYPosition = defaultAttributes[0].frame.origin.y

        for attributes in defaultAttributes {
            if attributes.frame.origin.y > lastYPosition {
                // we have changed line
                xCursor = self.sectionInset.left
                lastYPosition = attributes.frame.origin.y
            }

            attributes.frame.origin.x = xCursor
            // by using the minimumInterimitemSpacing we no we'll never go
            // beyond the right margin, so no further checks are required
            xCursor += attributes.frame.size.width + minimumInteritemSpacing

            leftAlignedAttributes.append(attributes)
        }
        return leftAlignedAttributes
    }
}

当collectionViewItems的高度不一致时，@Obliquely的答案就会失败。以下是他们在Swift 4.2中为处理非统一大小项目而修改的代码：

class CollectionViewLeftFlowLayout: NSCollectionViewFlowLayout
{
    override func layoutAttributesForElements(in rect: CGRect) -> [NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes]
    {
        let defaultAttributes = super.layoutAttributesForElements(in: rect)

        if defaultAttributes.isEmpty {
            return defaultAttributes
        }

        var leftAlignedAttributes = [NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes]()

        var xCursor = self.sectionInset.left                            // left margin
        var lastYPosition = defaultAttributes[0].frame.origin.y         // if/when there is a new row, we want to start at left margin
        var lastItemHeight = defaultAttributes[0].frame.size.height

        for attributes in defaultAttributes
        {
            // copy() Needed to avoid warning from CollectionView that cached values are mismatched
            guard let newAttributes = attributes.copy() as? NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes else {
                continue;
            }

            if newAttributes.frame.origin.y > (lastYPosition + lastItemHeight)
            {
                // We have started a new row
                xCursor = self.sectionInset.left
                lastYPosition = newAttributes.frame.origin.y
            }

            newAttributes.frame.origin.x = xCursor

            xCursor += newAttributes.frame.size.width + minimumInteritemSpacing
            lastItemHeight = newAttributes.frame.size.height

            leftAlignedAttributes.append(newAttributes)
        }
        return leftAlignedAttributes
    }
}

swift 4.2的较短解决方案：

class CollectionViewLeftFlowLayout: NSCollectionViewFlowLayout {

    override func layoutAttributesForElements(in rect: NSRect) -> [NSCollectionViewLayoutAttributes] {
        let attributes = super.layoutAttributesForElements(in: rect)

        if attributes.isEmpty { return attributes }

        var leftMargin = sectionInset.left
        var lastYPosition = attributes[0].frame.maxY

        for itemAttributes in attributes {

            if itemAttributes.frame.origin.y > lastYPosition { // NewLine
               leftMargin = sectionInset.left
            }

            itemAttributes.frame.origin.x = leftMargin
            leftMargin += itemAttributes.frame.width + minimumInteritemSpacing
            lastYPosition = itemAttributes.frame.maxY
        }
        return attributes
    }
}
