Percentage constraint width

I have a view with a width value of 700. I also place several buttons and an image inside this view. The problem is exactly that I asked them the width and when the device changed to a device with a large screen, these objects did not stretch as needed.

Then I read that you can set the width as a percentage so that the interface is good. My button whose width value was = 32. I made the width equivalent to view and set the factor to 0.32. But the result has not changed, and in appearance the button has become even smaller.

How can I set the percentage width correctly so that the button automatically resizes to fit the size of this view ??

You want to set the multiplier relative to the superview.

So, if you have originally designed your button to be 32-pts wide, and its superview (the view it is embedded in) is 700-pts wide, your button width should be equal to the superview width with a multiplier of 32:700

Here is an example -- I'm starting with button width of 32 and view width of 300 to make it easier to see the "stretching".

The button width constraint is:

Proportional Width to: Superview
Multiplier: 32:300

enter image description here

So, when I change the width of the superview to 400, 500, 600, 700, you can see that the button stretches while remain proportional:
