    <p>I have a UIView of size 20x40 which has been added as a subview of a ViewController. The smaller UIView is draggable across the screen and depending on the position it has been dragged to, the UIView will reset the 'X' coordinate to stick to the screen edge.</p> <p>However, I want to use/learn 'Auto Layout' to add constraints to this subView to maintain the same width and height in both landscape and portrait mode.</p> <p>Code so far:</p> <pre><code>self.anotherView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake (0.0,(self.view.frame.size.height/2)-45.0f-self.navigationController.navigationBar.frame.size.height,20.0,45.0f)]; UIPanGestureRecognizer *panRecognizer = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:@selector(dragging:)]; [self.anotherView addGestureRecognizer:panRecognizer]; [self.anotherView setBackgroundColor: [UIColor blueColor]]; self.anotherView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO; [self.view addSubview: self.anotherView]; [self.view bringSubviewToFront:self.anotherView]; NSDictionary *views = @{@"subview" : self.anotherView, @"superview" : self.view}; [self.view addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"H:|[subview(==20)]|" options:NSLayoutFormatAlignAllBaseline metrics:nil views:views]]; [self.view addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:[subview(==40)]" options:NSLayoutFormatAlignAllBaseline metrics:nil views:views]]; NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.anotherView attribute:NSLayoutAttributeBaseline relatedBy:NSLayoutRelationEqual toItem:self.view attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop multiplier:1.0 constant:self.view.bounds.size.height]; [self.view addConstraint:constraint]; </code></pre> <p>However, the above code gives me the following error:</p> <pre><code>Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints. Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want. Try this: (1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect; (2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it. (Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, refer to the documentation for the UIView property translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints) ( "&lt;NSLayoutConstraint:0x8b4ef80 H:|-(0)-[UIView:0x8b4eab0] (Names: '|':UIView:0x8b4cc80 )&gt;", "&lt;NSLayoutConstraint:0x8b4f020 H:[UIView:0x8b4eab0(20)]&gt;", "&lt;NSLayoutConstraint:0x8b4f0f0 H:[UIView:0x8b4eab0]-(0)-| (Names: '|':UIView:0x8b4cc80 )&gt;", "&lt;NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraint:0x8aa1d30 h=--&amp; v=--&amp; H:[UIView:0x8b4cc80(320)]&gt;" ) Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint &lt;NSLayoutConstraint:0x8b4f0f0 H:[UIView:0x8b4eab0]-(0)-| (Names: '|':UIView:0x8b4cc80 )&gt; Break on objc_exception_throw to catch this in the debugger. The methods in the UIConstraintBasedLayoutDebugging category on UIView listed in &lt;UIKit/UIView.h&gt; may also be helpful. </code></pre> <p>What exactly am I doing wrong here? Also, I am using Storyboard and only this view is added as the subView to the ViewController. Please find below the screenshot of how the UI looks at present.</p> <p><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/9mol6.png" alt="The blue view is freely draggable across the screen!"></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
