Question

Before you bash me for duplicate, please know that I have looked nearly every other method but none of them have helped. I have a long view in which I have a scroll view.

The view is 320 by 671. The scroll view has been linked to the outlet “scrollView” correctly.

The property “scrollView” has been properly declared and synthesised.

My code:

    [scrollView setScrollEnabled: YES]; 

    scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(320,  671);

scrollView.clipsToBounds = YES;
scrollView.delegate = self; // I have adopted the delegate protocol in .h

So, my problem is that the view doesn’t scroll, and the scroll bar doesn’t even show up.

EDIT:

I resized the uiview to normal 320 by 460. I deleted the scroll view in xib and decided to add like this:

UIScrollView *scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame: CGRectMake(self.view.center.x, self.view.center.y, 320, 460)]; 

[scrollView setScrollEnabled: YES];

 scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(320, 671); 

scrollView.clipsToBounds = YES; scrollView.delegate = self; 

[self.view addSubview: scrollView];

OK, now what happens is when I scroll the screen, the bar comes up and I can scroll around to change the bar’s position, but the actual view doesn’t scroll

Answer 1

Your scrollview should be 320×460 and your scrollview.contentsize should be 320×671.
You must layout your subviews “outside” of the view in IB.

EDIT:

Your layout should look like this:

The textview is placed outside the views frame but inside the scrollview. The scrollviews content size should be set accordingly to fit all subviews. In this case yValue should be 550 + 128
