UIScrollView in iOS 6

Question

Recently i've downloaded Xcode 4.5(iOS 6),but when tried to continue one of my projects i noticed that the UIScrollView isn't working properly,let me explain more clearly:

I've created the UIScrollView and added the initialized it using the following code:

-(void)viewDidLoad{

    [mainScrollView setScrollEnabled:YES];
    mainScrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(480, 0);

    [super viewDidLoad];

}

After i opened my XIB and linked the mainScrollView to a UIScrollView,after i added some UIButton's to the scrollView.When i built the project the mainScrollView was scrolling but the buttons didn't showed up,i mean,i just could see the button that were already on the screen.What i'm doing wrong?How can i setup the UIScrollView?

I had the same problem just now. Could this be a bug in the iOS6 SDK? — Pedro Mancheno, Aug 18 '12 at 19:51

For xcode 4.5 ,If you are using scrollView you have to either uncheck "use AutoLayout" in file inspector.

or if you want to "use AutoLayout",then in .m(implementation) file add this

- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
    [super viewDidAppear:animated];
    theScroller.contentSize=CGSizeMake(1024.0,1300.0);
}

OK, so the answer for AutoLayout is found here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/12619786/embed-imageview-in-scrollview-with-auto-layout-on-ios-6 basically, move the `contentSize` code to the `viewDidAppear` method. – PaulJ Oct 05 '12 at 10:12
THANK YOU for this post!!!! I have literally burned an entire day with this. I unchecked "use AutoLayout" and finally my scrollView works like its supposed to. Burns me up... TY again – tg2007 Oct 26 '12 at 04:15

Maybe you just typed this wrong, but your CGSize has a height of 0?

Just to disable the vertical scrolling! – Mateus Jun 25 '12 at 00:10

Can't you just disable it in IB? Or just using properties? Setting the CGSize width to 0 sounds like a bad idea. – dgund Jun 25 '12 at 00:11
If you want to disable vertical scrolling, set the content height to the same as the size of the scroll view and turn off vertical bouncing. – Jesse Rusak Jun 25 '12 at 00:13
Both ways work,but my problem id different!Is like,when i scroll the UIButton's remain inert,like they aren't inside the UIScrollView,like the are inside the main view! – Mateus Jun 25 '12 at 00:51
Why don't you try logging the buttons' superviews? – Alexsander Akers Jun 25 '12 at 00:52
Ok i've logged the superview and i got this result:; layer = ; contentOffset: {0, 0}> – Mateus Jun 25 '12 at 01:00

You can do it with Auto Layout in XCode 4.5 But you config your UIScrollView in viewDidAppear

I do this also in a static UITableView with images.

Name your images like timg1.png, timg2.png....

in your ControllerView.h File

@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIScrollView *Sv1;
@property (weak, nonatomic) IBOutlet UIPageControl *Pc1;

In your ControllerView.m File

-(void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{

    //Scrollview
    Sv1.delegate = self;

    Sv1.contentSize = CGSizeMake(260, 176);

    [self.Sv1 setBackgroundColor:[UIColor clearColor]];
    // ScrollViewGarten.frame = CGRectMake(9, 11, 283, 170);
    [Sv1 setCanCancelContentTouches:NO];

    Sv1.multipleTouchEnabled = NO;
    Sv1.indicatorStyle = UIScrollViewIndicatorStyleWhite;
    Sv1.clipsToBounds = YES;
    Sv1.scrollEnabled = YES;
    Sv1.pagingEnabled = YES;

    NSUInteger nimagesTextil = 0;
    CGFloat cxTextil = 0;
    for (; ; nimagesTextil++) {
        NSString *imageNameTextil = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"timg%d.png", (nimagesTextil + 1)];
        UIImage *imageTextil = [UIImage imageNamed:imageNameTextil];
        if (imageTextil == nil) {
            break;
        }
        UIImageView *imageViewTextil = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:imageTextil];

        CGRect rect = imageViewTextil.frame;
        rect.size.height = 176;
        rect.size.width = 260;
        rect.origin.x = ((Sv1.frame.size.width - imageTextil.size.width) / 2) + cxTextil;
        rect.origin.y = ((Sv1.frame.size.height - imageTextil.size.height) / 2);

        imageViewTextil.frame = rect;

        [Sv1 addSubview:imageViewTextil];

        cxTextil += Sv1.frame.size.width;
    }
    self.Pc1.numberOfPages = nimagesTextil;
    [Sv1 setContentSize:CGSizeMake(cxTextil, [Sv1 bounds].size.height)];
    self.Pc1.currentPage = 0;

}

I believe this is a bug with either Xcode 4.5 or the iOS 6 SDK. The way I fixed it was by adding the subviews to my UIScrollView programatically.

So you would have to do something like:

- (void)viewDidLoad {

    [super viewDidLoad];

    UIButton *button = [[UIButton alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(400.0f, 10.0f, 60.0f, 30.0f);
    [mainScrollView addSubView:button];
    mainScrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(480.0f, mainScrollView.frame.size.height);
}

Try this and let me know if this worked for you.

If you have an old version of Xcode it might be a good idea to replicate the code and the nib over there to see the results.

If you would like to fix this AND use AutoLayout, move your contentSize code to the viewDidAppear method. I found the answer in this SO question: Embed ImageView in ScrollView with Auto Layout on iOS 6

I would do it like this:

-(void)viewDidLayoutSubviews
{
[self.scrollview setScrollEnabled:YES];
[self.scrollview setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
[self.scrollview setContentSize:CGSizeMake(320, _y)];
[self.scrollview setAlwaysBounceVertical:YES];
}

I use the class variable _y since I add all the subviews heights to it.
