How to overlay components on top of other components?

[aaronschubert0]

Hi I'm trying to create a interface where a UIImage is partly on top of a UIView and then another UIView is on top of it. How would I accomplish this?

What I want to implement:

What I have:

Never mind the font differences

Did you check out CKOverlayLayoutComponent ?

@benlodotcom Yeah I did, the problem is that it stretches the component out in top of it, unless I could specify 'blank space'?

Is CKOverlayLayoutComponent supposed to support this type of interface?

[adamjernst]

Use CKInsetComponent with an infinite left/top inset to remove the stretching:

[CKOverlayLayoutComponent
 newWithComponent:component
 overlay:
 [CKInsetComponent
  newWithInsets:{.left = INFINITY, .top = INFINITY}
  component:overlayComponent]]

@adamjernst thanks, I'll give that a chance and report back.
