Xcode10.3 - Xib can't drag & drop UICollectionViewCell

Question

Xcode Version : 10.3

I used xib to create a UIView and added a UICollectionView to the UIView.

When I added UICollectionViewCell, it didn't work. Means I can't drag UICollectionViewCell into UICollectionView

The structure I want is like this

UIView(xib) -> UICollectionView(xib) -> UICollectionViewCell(xib)

Of course, I can add UICollectionViewCell with code, but why doesn't it work with xib? Does anyone know the reason?

Thanks

Answer 1

You have to add prototype cells in UICollectionView in xib and then change it's class from UICollectionViewCell to your desired custom class.
