Can I know in advance where the Scrollview will stop before scrolling stop? I have consulted relevant online materials, but it seems that there is no relevant topic. I am making a magic app to know where it will scroll before Scrollview stops, so that I can modify the value there in advance
My attempt: mark when it starts to slow down and stop, but the sliding distance between them is uncertain, so I haven't finished my idea yet
There is a scroll view delegate method.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiscrollviewdelegate/1619385-scrollviewwillenddragging
This will tell you the intended target offset when the deceleration finishes.
It is intended to be used to change the target offset. For instance if you want to make sure it aligns with the content you have tween it finishes.
But you don’t have to change it. You can just return the target offset but use that to change the content like you mentioned.
I'm looking to recreate the functionality that's show in this video for the picture:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zEREoIcoQHE
A long press is done, a view appears, and when the user swipes up far enough, the options come up at the bottom. If the user continues to drag up higher and then lets go, the main view animates to bounce back down to the middle of the screen. If the user swipes all the way down, the view animates away.
I recognize there is a lot going on here and a lot of different pieces and that this is a very broad question. I'm more or less looking for a place to get started with it. The only thing I really recognize here is I guess a scrollview. I know how to do all of the basic stuff with presenting and dismissing the different views, but the dragging and the scrolling and the snapping back into place is where I'm not sure where to begin.
Is that all just scrollView code I need to learn? For example I guess there's a way to detect when the scroll has been scrolled far enough up to trigger presenting the options view. What is making the view bounce back into place after dragging up and releasing? etc.
What tools are used to achieve this kind of behavior?
If I am not mistaken thats the "Apple's" 3D touch APIs magic ✨

I have been only using Xcode 5 for a little while now and I need help when it comes to auto scrolling a UIScrollView. I am using a single view application. I need the screen to scroll down at a pace that speeds up incrementally. Also I need the screen to keep progressing even when the screen is touched. If someone can explain which code goes where it would be great! Your help will be greatly appreciated. :)
Check out this library: https://github.com/danielamitay/DAAutoScroll
It stops to scroll when the user touches the screen and that's the only solution I see possible. I don't even see why you wouldn't want the user to be able to stop the scrolling..
OK, just adding this from your duplicate question.
I suspect the Piano Tiles game is actually using something like Sprite Kit.
This allows a lot more control over thing like "scrolling" speed.
Instead of using a UIScrollView you would use an SKNode as a layer with the buttons added to that parent layer.
Then using the update game loop you can incrementally increase the speed of the movement based on the time since the game started.
In essence... don't use UIScrollView, don't use UIKit, use SpriteKit.
I can see a few options:
1) suggested by Fogmeister, use Sprite Kit instead.
2) see setContentOffset
3) just use a normal view as parent, then have another child view on top with the full content (would be longer than the parent view), create a NSTimer to periodically call a method which scrolls the child view in whatever direction and speed as required.
Note that might need something on top to mask around the child view from showing the suppose-to-be-hidden sections of the child view.
Hope this helps
I have a paging scrollview much like Apple's Page Control example project which I have adapted into a horizontal picker. I would really like the ability to scroll through many pages per flick gesture instead of one-at-a-time, much like how UIPickerViews work. Looking for some guidance on how to approach this. Thanks!
First here best Source Code
It could be that whatever is setting those numbers in there, is not greatly impressed by you setting the contentOffset under its hands. So it just goes on setting what it thinks should be the contentOffset for the next instant - without verifying if the contentOffset has changed in the meantime.
I would subclass UIScrollView and put the magic in the setContentOffset method. In my experience all content-offset changing passes through that method, even the content-offset changing induced by the internal scrolling. Just do [super setContentOffset:..] at some point to pass the message on to the real UIScrollView.
Maybe if you put your shifting action in there it will work better. You could at least detect the 3000-off setting of contentOffset, and fix it before passing the message on. If you would also override the contentOffset method, you could try and see if you can make a virtual infinite content size, and reduce that to real proportions "under the hood".
This is also helpful for you..!!!
OK, I think it's time to make an official place on the internet for this problem: How to make a UIScrollView photoviewer with paging and zooming. Welcome my fellow UIScrollView hackers.
I have a UIScrollView with paging enabled, and I'm displaying UIImageViews like the built-in photos app. (Does this sound familiar yet?)
I found the following project on github:
https://github.com/andreyvit/ScrollingMadness/wiki
Which shows how to implement zooming in a scroll view while paging is enabled. If anyone else tries this out, I actually had to remove the UIScrollView subclass and use the native class otherwise it doesn't work. I think it's because of changes in the 3.0 SDK relating to how the scroll view intercepts touch events.
So the the idea is to remove all the other views when you start zooming, and move the current view to (0, 0) in the scrollview, updating the contentsize etc. Then when you zoom back to 1.0f it adds the other views back and puts things all back in order.
Anyway, that project works perfectly in the simulator, but on the device there is some nasty movement of the view you are resizing, which looks like it's caused by the fact we are changing the contentsize/offset etc. for the view being resized. You have to do this view moving otherwise you can pan left through the whitespace left by the other views.
I found one interesting note in the "Known Issues" of the 3.0 SDK release notes:
UIScrollView: After zooming, content inset is ignored and content is left in the wrong position.
This kind of sounds like what is happening here. After zooming in, the view will shift offscreen because you have changed the offset etc.
I've spent hours on this already and I'm slowing coming to the sad realization that this just isn't going to work.
Three20's photo viewer is out of the question: it's too heavy weight and there is too much unnecessary UI and other behaviour.
The built in Photo app seems to do some magic. If you zoom in on an image and pan to the far edges, the current photo moves independently of the photo next to it which isn't what you get when trying this with a standard UIScrollView.
I've seen discussion about nesting the UIScrollView's but I really don't want to go there.
Has anybody managed this with the standard UIScrollView (and works in the 2.2 and 3.0 SDK)? I don't fancy rolling my own zoom + bounce + pan + paging code.
UPDATE
I deleted my previous answer because of the news below...
Big news for those who haven't heard. Apple has released the 2010 WWDC session videos to all members of the iphone developer program. One of the topics discussed is how they created the photos app!!! They build a very similar app step by step and have made all the code available for free.
It does not use private api either. Here is a link to the sample code download. You will probably need to login to gain access.

I've written a simple and easy to use photo browser called MWPhotoBrowser. I decided to create it as Three20 was too heavy/bloated as all I needed was a photo viewer.
MWPhotoBrowser can display one or more images by providing either UIImage objects, or URLs to files, web images or library assets. The photo browser handles the downloading and caching of photos from the web seamlessly. Photos can be zoomed and panned, and optional (customisable) captions can be displayed. The browser can also be used to allow the user to select one or more photos using either the grid or main image view.
You say you've seen discussions of nesting UIScrollViews but don't want to go there - but that is the way to go! It works easily and well.
It's essentially what Apple does in its PhotoScroller example (and the 2010 WWDC talk linked to in Jonah's answer). Only in those examples, they've added a whole bunch of complex tiling and other memory management. If you don't need the tiling etc. and if you dont want to wade through those examples and try and remove the bits related to it, the underlying principle of nesting UIScrollViews is actually quite simple:
Create an outer UIScrollView and set its pagingEnabled = true. Add it to your main view and set its width and height to your main view's width and height.
Create as many inner UIScrollViews as you want images. Set their width and height to your main view's width and height. Add them as subviews to your outer UIScrollView, each one next to the other, left to right.
Set the content size of the outer UIScrollView to the total of the widths of all the inner UIScrollViews side by side (which is equal to [your main view's width]*[number of images]).
Add your images' UIImageViews to the inner UIScrollViews, one UIImageView to each inner UIScrollView. Set each UIScrollView's content size to each UIImageView's size.
Set min and max zoom scales for each inner UIScrollView and set each of the inner UIScrollView's delegate to your View Controller. In the delegate's viewForZoomingInScrollView, return the appropriate UIImageView for the UIScrollView that is passed. (To do this, just keep each of the UIImageViews in an NSArray and set the corresponding UIScrollView's tag property to the index of the appropriate UIImageView. You can then read the tag in the UIScrollView passed to viewForZoomingInScrollView and return the appropriate UIImageView from the NSArray).
That's it. Works just like the photo app.
If you have a lot of photos, to save memory you can just have two inner UIScrollViews and two UIImagesViews. You then dynamically flip between them, moving their position within the outer UIScrollView and changing their images as the user scrolls the outer UIScrollView. It's a bit more complex but the same principle.
I did some playing around with the native Photos app, and I think I can say with confidence they are using a single UIScrollView. The giveaway is this: zoom in on an image, and pull to the left or right. You will see the next or previous photo. If you tug hard enough, it will even page to the next photo at 1.0f zoom. Flip back and the previously zoomed photo will be back to 1.0f zoom as well.
Obivously I didn't write Photos.app, but I'll take a wild guess at how they did it:
A single UIScrollView and a single UIScrollViewDelegate
Populate the UIScrollView with UIImageView children
Listen for scrollViewDidScroll:
Do some math and figure out what page you are currently on
Listen for viewForZoomingInScrollView:
Return a different view depending on the page index
Listen for scrollViewDidEndZooming:withView:atScale: and optionally do some anti-aliasing, etc based on the content
If you decide to try that out, let me know how it works out for you. I'd love to know how you finally end up getting this to work. Even better, post it to github.

This is wrong. I'm using nested scrollviews, and getting exactly the same effect. If you're using some memory management scheme (which I had to start using... my page number is fairly high ('bout 50 each in 2 scrollViews)), then you can use a mechanism similar to whatever you have triggering your page loads / unloads to trigger a zoom reset for the pages -1 and +1 from the current page.
I suspect that apple sets this off as soon as the previous pic has disappeared.
What I don't understand is how to achieve smooth scrolling between pages - there's always a very short hang at the moment of transition. Do not get it. I've gotten pretty deep into fixing it - NSInvocationOperations were my first stop, then I made a reusable views queue for the page views (which retain their image views)... still this durned hang.
I only have one NSOperationQueue running, and I've tried fiddling with the max number of concurrent operations. My thought was that the main thread was getting clogged by competing Queues, or maybe even one queue trying to do to much... still, the hang.
I even tried creating super low-qual versions of my media, in case that was the problem. With each image weighing in at around 10k (these are jpegs, mind you)... you guessed it. The hang's still there.
I'm pretty much resolved to do what I've done before and use TTPhotoViewController from Three20. I've spent some hours swimming through that code, and it's always a great education. At this point, though, I would really like to know where the heck this hang comes from, if only so I can spend my can't-sleep hours wondering about something less brain boiling.
sure would be nice if apple built an image viewer like the photos app into the SDK for us to use. I'm currently using three20 and it works great. But it is a lot of extra stuff to carry around when all you really want is the photo viewer.
i write a code for that , and can be as reference
load current view scrollview and imageview ..
and for the screen next to the current view , only imageview
remove all view when current page load to save memory , so good for many photo project
use tag to differentiate different scrollview
