IBOutlet properties nil after custom view loaded from xib

by

That’s expected, because the IBOutlet(s) are not assigned by the time the initializer is called.

Instead of calling commonInit() in init(coder:), do that in an override of awakeFromNib as follows:

// ...

required init(coder aDecoder: NSCoder) {
    super.init(coder: aDecoder)
}

override func awakeFromNib() {
    super.awakeFromNib()

    commonInit()
}

// ...
