UI.View.frame

(part of UI.View)

Type: rect

Default: zeroRect

Represents the frame of the element. Changing the frame property directly affects the bounds of the object, and also sends out boundsDidChange and frameDidChange notifications.

The frame is relative to the view's superView.

Note: changing the properties of the frame object should be avoided, as it does not utilize the setter method for the property. Therefore notifications will fail to fire and properties that rely on it will fail to be updated. When changing this property, you should always assign a new copy of the object that contains the desired modifications.

Usage

var aView = new UI.View();
aView.frame = UI.makeRect ( UI.makePoint ( 10, 10 ), UI.makeSize ( 100, 150 ) );
//aView's frame starts at (10,10) and is 100 wide and 150 high.
//aView's bounds are now 100 wide and 150 high
