In Swift, is there a way to change scrollview focus programatically? For example, in one of my scrollviews when a user is scrolling, after the scroll has gone past a certain distance I want the scroll to stop scrolling and to immediately scroll a tableview instead. I want this to all happen in the same motion/swipe, so I need to automatically shift the focus from the scrollview to the tableview using code. Is this possible?
Using Rikh's comment, I was able to solve this using a UITableView with multiple sections and custom UITableView headers. I can use the viewForHeaderInSection method to create a custom floating header which is exactly what I need and it scrolls much more smoothly.

I have a tableView and I have a UIView as the tableView header. I want the header to move up the screen when I scroll down and act just like any normal cell. But when I have reached the top of the view, where if I scroll up it will just bounce back, I want the tableView header to stick to the top.
One example is like the Facebook app headers. They scroll when you scroll, but if you're at the top of the page and you scroll up, they wont scroll down, they stay stuck to the top.
How do I achieve this?
If you're using a normal tableView (not grouped style) and you only have one section, you can accomplish this by using the section header instead. The default behaviour of this type of tableView is as you described. You'll just have to provide a custom view for the section header that looks like your cell.
If this isn't a possibility, you'll need to take advantage of tableView being a subclass of scrollView, and implement the scrollViewDidScroll delegate method to check content offsets etc.
I'm working on a application where I have a UITableView inside a UIScrollview.
The TableView will display current games players are in, its inside a UIScrollView. I dynamically add cells to the UITableView for each game, but when I scroll the UIScrollView, the tableview inside it snaps back to its size set in the storybuilder.
This is because of autolayout, when I disable it, it doesn't happen anymore. However I do like autolayout for other views in my app. So my question is, how can I fix this problem?
Maybe someone can help me get on the right track.
Thanks
EDIT
I think I must explain my situation more, I will use an image where I can display what is happening
Explanation
Before and after scrolling.
As you can see I use the scrollview because there can be many games, so you'll have to scroll down to see them all. The TableView is just to hold the data, scrolling is disabled on that. After scrolling the TableView that says "JOUW BEURT" snaps back to its size set in the Storybuilder. This is because of auto layout like I said, but I don't know how to fix this.
You shouldn't put a tableview inside a scrollview as a tableview itself contains a scrollview and causes issues just like you are seeing when you have a scrollview inside a scrollview.
Remove the scrollview and this should fix your issue. If you are wanting to put content above the tableview or where you scroll down to view the tableview cells etc, consider adding a tableview header view that is added above the tableview.
Why did you place UITableView inside UIScrollView?
Check below
Check your constraints of UITableView and UIScrollView
Placing UITableView inside UIScrollView is somewhat strange
EDIT
You will just need to remove the scrollview and enable scrolling feature of the tableview. that will fix it
UITableView is already a subclass of
UIScrollView
I'm trying to implement something similar to iTunes Store UI.
As you can see from the picture, there are two directions of scrolling possible. But I would like to prioritise scrolling of UICollectionView which is to the left or right because currently scroll down and scroll left/right are conflicting and causing weird behaviour.
Way to duplicate:
Scroll Down UITableView and then quickly try to swipe right or left on UICollectionView. UITableView will continue to scroll.
How can I do so? Do I need to use GestureRecognizer?
I always avoid collection view as it provides less flexibility to work with auto layout compared to a table view, however not against collection view every time. You should try the adding collection view inside a table view
There is a number of tutorials available for the same. eg (ios 8 Swift - TableView with embedded CollectionView)
I want to add a subview to a UICollectionView in order to make a left panel that scrolls with the collectionview.
Using
[self.collectionView addSubview:myView]
all touches become disabled and I can no longer scroll the view. I've read that adding a subview to a collectionView like this is bad practice.. is this true? Why does it disable touches from reaching the collectionView event when
userInteractionEnabled = NO
I'm trying to do this: imgur link by grabbing the frame position of the first cell in each section, and adding a dot with to myView with the same y value.
Thanks for any help!
Adding subviews using the addSubview: method to a UICollectionView is very bad practice. It can cause a lot of different problems in the normal behaviour of the CollectionView. It can obstruct the views underneath it, capture the touch events, preventing them from reaching the actual scrollView inside the CollectionView, etc. The subviews added using this method will also not scroll as the other elements in the CollectionView do.
The correct way to do what you want is to implement a new type of UICollectionViewCell for the dots, and compute their locations in the prepareForLayout and layoutAttributesForElementsInRect: methods. Basically you'll have either one or two cells in each row. Which ones will have two rows will be determined by you in the methods I've mentioned.
In fact, Apple's docs have a perfect example that's even more complex than what you're trying you achieve. You should check it out from this link.
May I know the purpose of that scroll view ? Because, if you're looking for a subview that displays only a label or image etc., You can use custom collectionview cell instead if I am not wrong... Hope it helps :) :)
In this I need scroll complete tableview to upward and tableview should stay upwards until user again scrolls down. It should come back to its original position.
Update
I need to scroll the tableview top and bottom on a image
From Apple documentation it's not advisable to add tableView inside scrollview(Reference).
Now according to design of your screen either you can have one tableView and in header of that tableView you can add all static content.Reference
or if your design must have tableView inside scrollView then this SO question maybe helpful to you.
I'd prefer first choice if possible.
By the way if you can fix the height of tableView then you can implement tableView inside scrollView easily.
