Swift CGPoint in relation to another CGPoint

Question

I am trying to have two UIButtons. One is 8 points from the edge of the UIView they are inside and the second one is 4 points from the start of the first. I am currently doing this

    let buttonFrames: CGSize = CGSizeMake(56, 42)
    let buttonRightPosition: CGPoint = CGPointMake(frame.size.width - 8, frame.size.height - 62)
    let buttonLeftPosition: CGPoint = CGPointMake(buttonRightPosition - 60, frame.size.height)

Both buttons will have the frame 56x42 but I will also add size to fit both buttons. So, that is why I need to adjust the second one accordingly. When I do this an error occurs in variable buttonLeftPosition. I am trying to find any way to place a view in relation to another view in the same class.

so...what's your question? – LinusGeffarth Apr 15 '15 at 03:21 — LinusGeffarth, Apr 15 '15 at 03:21

buttonRightPosition is a CGPoint. In your last line, when you are trying to create the buttonLeftPosition CGPoint, you have to use buttonRightPosition.x to access its x position..

Note: In Swift I would use the CGSize and CGPoint initializers instead of CGSizeMake() or CGPointMake()

let buttonFrames = CGSize(width: 56, height: 42)
let buttonRightPosition = CGPoint(x: frame.size.width - 8, y: frame.size.height - 62)
let buttonLeftPosition = CGPoint(x: buttonRightPosition.x - 60, y: frame.size.height)
