Overlapping layers when loading new data in UITableView

200 views Asked by At

I am drawing Timeline view. I am using UITableView when I update the new data the circle layer drawn on bottom of previous layer.

This is how it looks when loading new data

overlapping layers when new data populating

Here is my custom cell code:

  override func draw(_ rect: CGRect) {
      if let anchor =  anchorView() {
          anchor.layer.zPosition = 3
          let iconImageView = anchor as! UIImageView
          iconImageView.image = iconImageView.image!.withRenderingMode(UIImageRenderingMode.alwaysTemplate)
          iconImageView.tintColor = UIColor.white

          let centreRelativeToTableView = anchor.superview!.convert(anchor.center, to: self)
          // print("Anchor x origin : \(anchor.frame.size.origin.x)")
          timelinePoint.position = CGPoint(x: centreRelativeToTableView.x , y: centreRelativeToTableView.y/2)
          timeline.start = CGPoint(x: centreRelativeToTableView.x  , y: 0)
          timeline.middle = CGPoint(x: timeline.start.x, y: anchor.frame.origin.y)
          timeline.end = CGPoint(x: timeline.start.x, y: self.bounds.size.height)
          timeline.draw(view: self.contentView)

          let circlePath = UIBezierPath(arcCenter: CGPoint(x: anchor.center.x,y: anchor.center.y ), radius: CGFloat(20), startAngle: CGFloat(0), endAngle:CGFloat(M_PI * 2), clockwise: true)

          let shapeLayer = CAShapeLayer()
          shapeLayer.path = circlePath.cgPath

          //change the fill color
          shapeLayer.fillColor = UIColor.randomFlat.cgColor
          // shapeLayer.fillColor = UIColor.clear.cgColor

          //you can change the stroke color
          shapeLayer.strokeColor = UIColor.white.cgColor
          //you can change the line width
          shapeLayer.lineWidth = 0
          anchor.alpha = 1
          //Set Anchor Z position
          anchor.layer.zPosition = 2
          shapeLayer.zPosition = 1

          anchor.superview?.layer.insertSublayer(shapeLayer, at: 0   )
          //  anchor.tintColor = UIColor.white

          // Setting icon to layer
          /* let imageLayer = CALayer()
          imageLayer.contents = iconImageView.image
          imageLayer.frame = anchor.frame
          anchor.layer.addSublayer(imageLayer)*/
          // timelinePoint.draw(view: self.contentView)
          } else {
                print("this should not happen")
      }
  }

How could I solve this problem

itemImageView.layer.cornerRadius = 25;

Update: As user atulkhatri points out, it won't work if you don't add:

itemImageView.layer.masksToBounds = YES;

Call your image view in this extension

    extension UIImageView {
        public func maskCircle(anyImage: UIImage){
        self.contentMode = UIViewContentMode.ScaleAspectFill
        self.layer.cornerRadius = self.frame.height / 2
        self.layer.masksToBounds = false
        self.clipsToBounds = true
        //make square(* must to make circle), resize(reduce the kilobyte) & fix rotation. 
        self.image = prepareImage(anyImage)
        }
    }
