I'm new to swift programming and storyboard usage. I want to know if it is possible to place my views inside a ScrollView using Storyboard and AutoLayout but visually. I'm not an expert so programming the constraints is a little hard for me now.
If it's possible can someone point me to a good starting point using xCode 6+. I'm planning to use iOS8+ as a requirement.
Thanks all!
It's pretty easy!
I've written a tutorial that explain how to use UIScrollView with Auto Layout in iOS 8 and Swift.
Take a look, hopefully will help you :).

Yes, it is possible. I do it all the time in my current projects.
Just make sure you connect (auto layout constraints) your scrollable contents to all sides of the scrollview, so that it can calculate the content size correctly.
Autolayout + UIScrollView is not a simple topic. Apple has a technical note on it:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/technotes/tn2154/_index.html
I found these tutorials useful:

I had a problem using a UIScrollView with xamarin.ios
I used the scrollView normally, and everything is going well, but the point is that I can't adjust the tools size"Constraints" inside the ScrollView, for example I have many sizes for ios phone screens, so I don't want to make a specific width and hight for tools, and that what storyboard force me to do.
any ideas, open source or tutorial.. thank you
AutoLayout on UIScrollView is different from UIView.
Refer to my recent answer Auto Layout within scroll view , also a demonstrative demo in the comment.
I have just joined iOS Develepors world.
i have a questions.
I don't understand auto layout with scrollview. Im tried every kind method but everytime seen different size and different location (button).
I just want to create scrollview (hortizonal) on 12 buttons for all IPhone models. What should i do? Could you write details.
Thank you so much.
It's pretty easy, you just have to be really methodic with all the constraints you add. I always start from the outside constraints and then start adding the inner ones.
Check out the tutorial I wrote for implementing a UIScrollView + Auto Layout in Swift. If you have any doubt, just ask me :)

I have a little problem, I work with Xcode 6 and now as we could see Apple advised to use Autolayout in our apps... And now that's compulsory.
So, I have that problem: I want to layout the ScrollView and the TableView but, I don't know how to do because I'm not an expert of autolayout...
The TableViewCells are dynamics, and appears by a specific action (for example: when a button is tapped) and the ScrollView's resizing automatically and that's the same for TableView's height.
As I said, I want the TableView's height and the ScrollView's height to change automatically and to adapt autolayout with this... But I don't have any idea yet...
Is anyone able to help me ? Please, if you have an idea tell me to hope to solve the problem !
Thank you in advance, and have a nice day ! (sorry I really wanted to post images but I can't currently because of reputation....................)
I always put something with blue lines, so I can use AL's suggest constraints at the third button on the bottom right, or use option + shift +command + '=' key to reset suggested constraints.By the way, Watching Stanford ios7 lecture 9 on itunes U is a good way learning autolayout.
So, i've been looking anywhere an explanation about how to implement Mirroring on Storyboard's Auto Layout - not programmatically.
I have an app that support a few languages and when i turn the language to Hebrew, for example, i have a label that change it's text to hebrew. so far so good. what i want to do next is to change the label's place like a mirror.
Can anyone help me understand how to do it on Storyboard Auto Layout?
Thanks.
After doing some research, i found the answer:
First, you have to implement an Internationalization. you can follow Ray's Wenderlich tutorial for Internationalization by enter this link:
http://www.raywenderlich.com/64401/internationalization-tutorial-for-ios-2014 .
Now, on Storyboard, all you have to do is putting some constraints to your label:
put trailing and leading constraints to the label you want to reflect like a mirror when the user switch the language, and that's it.
It's much more easy then design a new Storyboard and you're using the elements that Apple gave you, so i guess it's the right way too.
Hope it helps.
As in Android we can set in relativeLayout, textView below Button in xml file. Is there anything to set views relatively in IOS through storyboard or dynamically!! Please help as I am new to iOS, thanks in advance
There are constraints that you can add to elements in storyboards and there is autolayout.
I'd recommend looking at https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/userexperience/conceptual/AutolayoutPG/Introduction/Introduction.html to see more about autolayout, it should let you set your layout dynamically
