UIScrollView not able to scroll? - ios

I have this UIScrollView set up with a UIImageView and a UILabel.
However, it's not scrolling like I want it to. It's like it's not even there... How can I fix this? I just want it to be scrollable (even though theres nothing at the bottom to scroll to yet)
Thx in advance!
Here's my code:
// scrollView
scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
view.addSubview(scrollView)
// scrollView constraints
scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.topAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
// Initialize profileImageView
profileImageView.image = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "neil")
profileImageView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
profileImageView.layer.cornerRadius = 125 / 2
profileImageView.clipsToBounds = true
scrollView.addSubview(profileImageView)
// Add profileImageView constraints
profileImageView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor, constant: 45).isActive = true
profileImageView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 125).isActive = true
profileImageView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 125).isActive = true
profileImageView.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
// Add separator view
seperator.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
seperator.backgroundColor = UIColor.darkGray
scrollView.addSubview(seperator)
// seperator constraints
seperator.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 2).isActive = true
seperator.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.widthAnchor, multiplier: 0.8).isActive = true
seperator.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
seperator.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: profileImageView.bottomAnchor, constant: 20).isActive = true
//nameLabel
let nameLabelFont = UIFont.monospacedDigitSystemFont(ofSize: 36, weight: UIFont.Weight.heavy)
nameLabel.font = nameLabelFont
nameLabel.text = currentUser.name
nameLabel.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
scrollView.addSubview(nameLabel)
// nameLabel constraints
nameLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: seperator.bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
nameLabel.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: seperator.leadingAnchor).isActive = true

You can't scroll because scrollView.contentSize isn't bigger then your view.
If you want make your screen scrollable you should set scrollView.contentSize.
Put scrollView.contentSize = CGSize(width: 1000, height: 1000) before view.addSubview(scrollView) to set your scrollable area to 1000x1000.
Generally scrollView.contentSize should be calculated base on UI elements inside UIScrollView e.g. size of 10 images with space between them.

Swift Autolayout - Height Anchor not being applied

I am working on a "Profile View Controller" which is inside a TableViewCell and table cell dimension is set as UITableView.automaticDimension:
The problem is that I would like to set the background image view (Blue) with a variable height based on cell width and a 16:9 ratio. For some reason I am not being able to change the view height even if I set the constant.
Here the code:
let topView : UIView = {
let view = UIView()
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
view.layer.cornerRadius = 20
view.backgroundColor = .yoofitDarkBlue
view.layer.masksToBounds = true
view.layer.shadowColor = UIColor.lightGray.cgColor
view.layer.borderWidth = 0.5
view.layer.borderColor = UIColor.yoofitDarkBlue.cgColor
view.layer.shadowOffset = CGSize(width: 0.0, height: 0.0)
view.layer.shadowRadius = 12.0
view.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.7
return view
}()
let userImage : UIImageView = {
let i = UIImageView()
i.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
i.image = UIImage(named: "user2")
i.layer.masksToBounds = true
i.layer.cornerRadius = 75
i.layer.borderWidth = 1
i.layer.borderColor = UIColor.white.cgColor
return i
}()
var userNameLabel:UILabel = {
let l = UILabel()
l.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
l.font = UIFont(name: "AvenirNext-DemiBold", size: 20)
l.textAlignment = .center
l.textColor = .yoofitBlack
return l
}()
func setupViews() {
self.backgroundColor = .clear
self.selectionStyle = .none
addSubview(topView)
let width = self.frame.width
print(width) // print 320
topView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
topView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leftAnchor, constant: 8).isActive = true
topView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: rightAnchor, constant: -8).isActive = true
topView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/16*9).isActive = true // this doesn't work even if I set another number like 600
topView.layoutIfNeeded()
addSubview(userImage)
userImage.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
userImage.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userImage.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 150).isActive = true
userImage.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 150).isActive = true
addSubview(userNameLabel)
userNameLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
userNameLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userNameLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 200).isActive = true
userNameLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
userNameLabel.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.bottomAnchor, constant: -20).isActive = true
}
PLEASE NOTE THERE ARE 2 answers to this question. The latter is definitely the correct one but the first maybe may help others.
So this is how I fixed it but I hope to get better answers. This answer helped me to go to the right path (iOS: How to Align The Center of a View With The Bottom of Another View With AutoLayout)
I have added a containing view which is twice as the required size of my top view (the blue one).
I centered the picture on the containing view.
self.conteiningView.backgroundColor = .red // I made this red so you can visually see how the views are related to each other
let width = self.frame.width
self.addSubview(conteiningView)
conteiningView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topAnchor, constant: 8).isActive = true
conteiningView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leftAnchor, constant: 8).isActive = true
conteiningView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: rightAnchor, constant: -8).isActive = true
conteiningView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: (width/16*9)*2).isActive = true // twice of the blue view
conteiningView.layoutIfNeeded()
self.conteiningView.addSubview(topView)
topView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.topAnchor).isActive = true
topView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.leftAnchor).isActive = true
topView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.rightAnchor).isActive = true
topView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/16*9).isActive = true // 16:9 ration
conteiningView.addSubview(userImage)
userImage.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.centerYAnchor).isActive = true
userImage.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userImage.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/2).isActive = true
userImage.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/2).isActive = true
userImage.layer.cornerRadius = width/4 // to mantain nice proportions
conteiningView.addSubview(userNameLabel)
userNameLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.bottomAnchor, constant: 10).isActive = true
userNameLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userNameLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 200).isActive = true
userNameLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
With red background:
With clear background:
UPDATE: The answer above works but I have actually found the problem:
Even if I had set:
self.tableView.rowHeight = UITableView.automaticDimension
self.tableView.estimatedRowHeight = 300
For some (silly me) I had also implemented:
tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, heightForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> CGFloat
This, of course, does not be implemented for the automatic dimension to work.
removing that allowed to use the following code to achieve the same result but without setting a predefined height:
self.addSubview(conteiningView)
conteiningView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topAnchor, constant: 8).isActive = true
conteiningView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: leftAnchor, constant: 8).isActive = true
conteiningView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: rightAnchor, constant: -8).isActive = true
conteiningView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: bottomAnchor).isActive = true
conteiningView.layoutIfNeeded()
self.conteiningView.addSubview(topView)
topView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.topAnchor).isActive = true
topView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.leftAnchor).isActive = true
topView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: conteiningView.rightAnchor).isActive = true
topView.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/16*9).isActive = true
conteiningView.addSubview(userImage)
userImage.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true // the vertical center is now set nicely at bottom edge of my top view.
userImage.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: topView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userImage.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/2).isActive = true
userImage.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: width/2).isActive = true
userImage.layer.cornerRadius = width/4
conteiningView.addSubview(userNameLabel)
userNameLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.bottomAnchor, constant: 2).isActive = true
userNameLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: userImage.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
userNameLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 200).isActive = true
userNameLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 35).isActive = true

How do I add a UIView to a UIScrollView In Swift programmatically?

I am trying to add a view to a UIScrollView just using code, but the view doesn't appear in the UIScrollView and I'm not sure why. When I added a button or label, they show up.
import UIKit
class profileViewController: UIViewController, UIScrollViewDelegate {
var label : UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Profile"
label.textColor = UIColor.init(white: 0.80, alpha: 1)
label.font = UIFont.systemFont(ofSize: 40)
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
var scrollview : UIScrollView = {
let scrollview = UIScrollView()
scrollview.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
scrollview.backgroundColor = .clear
return scrollview
}()
var greyview : UIView = {
let view = UIView()
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.init(white: 0.70, alpha: 1)
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.gray
return view
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.backgroundColor = .white
view.addSubview(label)
label.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerYAnchor).isActive = true
label.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
scrollview.delegate = self
view.addSubview(scrollview)
scrollview.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.safeAreaLayoutGuide.topAnchor).isActive = true
scrollview.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
scrollview.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
scrollview.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
scrollview.contentSize = CGSize.init(width: view.frame.size.width, height: view.frame.size.height + 500)
scrollview.addSubview(greyview)
greyview.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.topAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true
}
}
this is one way:
self.scrollView = UIScrollView.init()
if let scrollView = self.scrollView {
scrollView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = true
self.view.add(scrollView)
scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.addConstraint(UtilConstraint.addTopConstraint(from: scrollView, to: self, value: 0))
self.addConstraint(UtilConstraint.addBottomConstraint(from: scrollView, to: self, value: 0))
self.addConstraint(UtilConstraint.addLeftLeftConstraint(from: scrollView, to: self, value: 0))
self.addConstraint(UtilConstraint.addRightRightConstraint(from: scrollView, to: self, value: 0))
NSLayoutConstraint.activate(self.constraints)
greyview.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
scrollView.addSubview(greyview)
greyview.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.leftAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
}
Remember, your greyview should have hight defined either statically or via. components inside.
though , what you were missing was defining a width. I have done it using widthAnchor. (assuming you need a vertical scroll)
This is probably because your greyview doesnt have its bottomAnchor. It needs the top and bottom anchors in order to work properly inside the scrollView:
scrollview.addSubview(greyview)
greyview.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.topAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true
greyview.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 100).isActive = true
Add a widthAnchor, here I centered it in the scroll view but it is up to you to place it how you want it. Also if you add more items just make sure the bottom-most item has a bottomAnchor attached to the scrollView bottomAnchor or it will not scroll.
Update:
I don't know how you want your greyview to look, but if you make the height taller than the contentSize of the scrollView it will scroll, and make sure you have the bottomAnchor:
scrollview.contentSize = CGSize.init(width: view.frame.size.width, height: view.frame.size.height)
scrollview.addSubview(greyview)
greyview.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.topAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
greyview.heightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.heightAnchor, constant: 500).isActive = true
greyview.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollview.widthAnchor).isActive = true
This makes the greyview width equal to scrollview width, and height equal to scrollview height + 500 so that it scrolls.

Positioning constraints not having any effect

I am trying to code the label in the viewDidLoad function. The label is showing up but the code I am using now is not affecting the positioning. I am trying to code everything in the viewDidLoad function. You can see the screenshot below.
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let backbutton = UILabel()
backbutton.backgroundColor = UIColor.orange
backbutton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
backbutton.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 300).isActive = true
backbutton.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 300).isActive = true
backbutton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: backbutton.centerXAnchor, constant: 100).isActive = true
backbutton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: backbutton.centerYAnchor, constant: 300).isActive = true
view.addSubview(backbutton)
}
This is how you can align the label into the center of the view,
let backbutton = UILabel()
view.addSubview(backbutton)
backbutton.backgroundColor = UIColor.orange
backbutton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
backbutton.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 300).isActive = true
backbutton.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 300).isActive = true
backbutton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
backbutton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
When you are setting constraints programmatically, make sure you add the view into the super/parent view before applying constraints. Secondly in the below lines, you are telling the backButton label to align its center to itself (i.e, backbutton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: backbutton.centerXAnchor).
backbutton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: backbutton.centerXAnchor, constant: 100).isActive = true
backbutton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: backbutton.centerYAnchor, constant: 300).isActive = true
As you want to align it center vertically and horizontally to its parent view so you should set the center constraints equal to parent view as below,
backbutton.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerXAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
backbutton.centerYAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.centerYAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true
Try this!!
self.view.setNeedsUpdateConstraints()
self.view.layoutIfNeeded()
Try using CGRect instead:
let screenWidth = UIScreen.main.bounds.width
let screenHeight = UIScreen.main.bounds.height
let xPostion:CGFloat = screenWidth - 150 //150 is half of view's width
let yPostion:CGFloat = screenHeight - 150 //150 is half of view's height
let buttonWidth:CGFloat = 300
let buttonHeight:CGFloat = 300
backbutton.frame = CGRect(x:xPostion, y:yPostion, width:buttonWidth, height:buttonHeight)
instead of screen width/height you can also try to get the width of your super view using:
self.view.frame.width
self.view.frame.height

Programmatically layed out UIScrollView, and added auto layout to it's subviews, but it does not scroll

I am trying to figure out how UIScrollView works and I added some subviews to it with different backgroundColor properties. I layed out the subviews with ios9 autolayout but even if the views are outside of the screen, the UIScrollView still does not scroll.
import UIKit
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let scrollView: UIScrollView = {
let sv = UIScrollView()
sv.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
sv.backgroundColor = .gray
return sv
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.addSubview(scrollView)
scrollView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.rightAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor).isActive = true
scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
let view1 = UIView()
view1.backgroundColor = .red
let view2 = UIView()
view2.backgroundColor = .blue
let view3 = UIView()
view3.backgroundColor = .green
let view4 = UIView()
view4.backgroundColor = .purple
let views = [view1, view2, view3, view4]
for view in views {
scrollView.addSubview(view)
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
}
view1.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor).isActive = true
view1.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.leftAnchor).isActive = true
view1.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view1.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view2.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view1.bottomAnchor, constant: 100).isActive = true
view2.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view1.rightAnchor).isActive = true
view2.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view2.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view3.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view2.bottomAnchor, constant: 50).isActive = true
view3.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view1.rightAnchor).isActive = true
view3.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view3.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view4.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view3.bottomAnchor, constant: 20).isActive = true
view4.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view1.rightAnchor).isActive = true
view4.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
view4.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 140).isActive = true
}
}
When using Autolayout in UIScrollViews you have to pin subviews both to the top and bottom of the scrollview which allows the scrollview to calculate its contentSize.
Adding this line fixes it:
view4.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.bottomAnchor, constant: 0).isActive = true

Swift: I'm not able to make autolayout constraints work for my UIScrollView

I'm trying to make a simple layout that should scroll vertically when views are too many to fit on the screen.
So this is what I have so far:
I created a scrollview and a container view like that
let mainScrollView: UIScrollView = {
let scrollView = UIScrollView()
scrollView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return scrollView
}()
let containerView: UIView = {
let view = UIView()
view.backgroundColor = .lightGray
view.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return view
}()
Then I added the scrollview to the main view, added the container view to the scrollview and a couple of labels to the container view
view.addSubview(mainScrollView)
mainScrollView.addSubview(containerView)
containerView.addSubview(firstLabel)
containerView.addSubview(secondLabel)
I pinned the scrollview to the main view, and the container view to the scrollview. After that I started adding the labels inside the container view like this
mainScrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.layoutMarginsGuide.topAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.layoutMarginsGuide.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
firstLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
firstLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.topAnchor, constant: 30).isActive = true
firstLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
firstLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
secondLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
secondLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: firstLabel.bottomAnchor, constant: 750).isActive = true
secondLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
secondLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
The problem is that for some reason the scrollview is not able to calculate it's height and it doesn't scroll vertically. The second label remains invisible because it's too "low" on the screen.
I tried setting the bottom constraint of the container view to the bottom of the second label but I'm going nowhere honestly.
What am I missing? How can I set constraints to make the scrollview scroll with autolayout (without setting a specific height of the container view)?
Scrollview scrolls in either direction. So any view added to it would need some additional constraints to let the Scrollview calculate its content size.
You have pinned the container view to scroll view. If you are looking at a vertically scrolling view like a table view then you need to also set the width of the scroll to the container view so that it can calculate the width.
Next for height, its automatically calculated based on the UI elements added in the container view. Ensure that all of the labels have leading, trailing to the container and vertical spacing to each other and top of the container view. This will let the scroll view know the height needed.
self.scrollView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.contentView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.label1.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.label2.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.label3.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
self.contentView.addSubview(self.label1)
self.contentView.addSubview(self.label2)
self.contentView.addSubview(self.label3)
self.scrollView.addSubview(self.contentView)
self.view.addSubview(self.scrollView)
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
self.scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.topAnchor),
self.scrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.trailingAnchor),
self.scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.bottomAnchor),
self.scrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.view.leadingAnchor)
])
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
self.contentView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.scrollView.topAnchor),
self.contentView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.scrollView.trailingAnchor),
self.contentView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.scrollView.bottomAnchor),
self.contentView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.scrollView.leadingAnchor),
self.contentView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.scrollView.widthAnchor)
])
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
self.label1.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.leadingAnchor),
self.label2.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.leadingAnchor),
self.label3.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.leadingAnchor),
self.label1.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.trailingAnchor),
self.label2.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.trailingAnchor),
self.label3.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.trailingAnchor)
])
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
self.label1.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.topAnchor),
self.label2.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.label1.bottomAnchor),
self.label3.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.label2.bottomAnchor),
self.label3.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: self.contentView.bottomAnchor)
])
And when run, it won't complain about any constraint issues either. Same can be done for horizontal scroll.
Thank you very much #GoodSp33d, you pointed me to the right direction.
I added the width constraint as you said like that:
containerView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
And the key point was to update the bottom constraint after all:
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: secondLabel.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
Here is the full working code:
mainScrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
mainScrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.topAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.trailingAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.leadingAnchor).isActive = true
containerView.widthAnchor.constraint(equalTo: mainScrollView.widthAnchor).isActive = true
firstLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
firstLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.topAnchor, constant: 30).isActive = true
firstLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
firstLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
secondLabel.centerXAnchor.constraint(equalTo: containerView.centerXAnchor).isActive = true
secondLabel.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: firstLabel.bottomAnchor, constant: 550).isActive = true
secondLabel.widthAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 50).isActive = true
secondLabel.heightAnchor.constraint(equalToConstant: 20).isActive = true
containerView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: secondLabel.bottomAnchor).isActive = true
Thanks for the help.
