I have a Scrollview, it's properties are set in viewDidAppear. Now when I get to the Scrollview first time there isn't any problem. However I have buttons that are assigned to UINavigationController. So when I press into one of them UINavigationController opens up, when I close the navigation controller, ScrollView does not restore properly. It basically aligns the centre of the screen as previously pressed button location. So if I try to scroll up it does not.

I have tried using this in my viewDidAppear:

scrollView.center = CGPointMake(scrollView.contentOffset.x, scrollView.contentOffset.y);

Which did not quite work. How can I solve this? I am using iOS6.1

  • Can you post some pictures to illustrate what you mean? I'm having a hard time visualizing the problem. – Ian Hoar Aug 02 '13 at 06:01

Actually I found the answer here:

UIScrollview Autolayout Issue

The exact code that I used is:

- (void)viewDidDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
    [super viewDidDisappear:animated];
    //save the current offset
    previousPoint = scrollView.contentOffset;
    //set current view to the beginning point
    self.scrollView.contentOffset = CGPointZero;
}

- (void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    [super viewDidLayoutSubviews];
    //retrieve the previous offset
    self.scrollView.contentOffset = previousPoint;
}

previousPoint is nothing but a CGPoint variable declared on the implementation.

I've had this problem before too. This answer shows how to overcome this issue.

Basically, you need to set the scrollview's contentOffset appropriately in viewWillAppear: and viewDidDisappear:.

  • @SarpKaya `recentContentOffest` is a variable that saves the `contentOffset` of your scrollview when you leave the view (in your case, when you tap the button the UINavigationController opens up). The answer that I linked to saves this `contentOffset` when the scrollview disappears so it can be reset when the scrollview appears again. – Steph Sharp Aug 02 '13 at 07:26
