IOS 8 custom keyboard: change height without warning "Can't satisfy constraints at the same time ..."

There are several SO answers on how to change the height of a custom keyboard. Some of them work, for example here , but the ones that work lead to a limitation of the conflict error printed in the console output:

Unable to simultaneously satisfy constraints... 
Will attempt to recover by breaking constraint...

      

Here is my very simple keyboard controller that sets a custom keyboard height (that's Swift):

class KeyboardViewController: UIInputViewController {
    private var heightConstraint: NSLayoutConstraint?
    private var dummyView: UIView = UIView()

    override func updateViewConstraints() {
        super.updateViewConstraints()

        if self.view.frame.size.width == 0 || self.view.frame.size.height == 0 || heightConstraint == nil {
            return
        }
        inputView.removeConstraint(heightConstraint!)
        heightConstraint!.constant = UIInterfaceOrientationIsLandscape(self.interfaceOrientation) ? 180 : 200
        inputView.addConstraint(heightConstraint!)
    }

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        self.dummyView.setTranslatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints(false)
        self.view.addSubview(self.dummyView)

        view.addConstraint(NSLayoutConstraint(item: self.dummyView, attribute: .Left, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: self.view, attribute: .Left, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0.0))
        view.addConstraint(NSLayoutConstraint(item: self.dummyView, attribute: .Bottom, relatedBy: .Equal, toItem: self.view, attribute: .Bottom, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0.0))

        heightConstraint = NSLayoutConstraint(item: view, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.Height, relatedBy: NSLayoutRelation.Equal, toItem: nil, attribute: NSLayoutAttribute.NotAnAttribute, multiplier: 1.0, constant: 0.0)
    }
}

      

This is causing an annoying output error that my constrain heightConstraint

I added to updateViewConstraints

is in conflict with the constraint denoted as UIView-Encapsulated-Layout-Height

.

I tried to remove the conflicting constant ( UIView-Encapsulated-Layout-Height

) in the updateViewConstraints

following way:

let defaultHeightConst = inputView.constraints().filter() {c in (c as? NSLayoutConstraint)?.identifier == "UIView-Encapsulated-Layout-Height"}.first as? NSLayoutConstraint
if defaultHeightConst != nil {
    inputView.removeConstraint(defaultHeightConst!
}

      

It didn't help, the exit warning is still there. How can I solve this? Specifically, what can I do to get rid of the output error message?

Try to set heightConstraint priority less than 1000. Some things like hitting:

heightConstraint.priority = 990

      



OR

heightConstraint.priority = 999
