I have UIViewController with UIScrollView in it.
UIScrollView contains multiple UIViewControllers (something like PageControl Apple example).
Each inner UIViewController in UIScrollView is able to handle the change of UIInterfaceOrientation and to redraw it's view.
But when the UIViewControllers are in UIScrollView the rotations events never reaches inner UIViewControllers.
How can I make those inner UIViewControllers to handle rotation events?
Thanks in advance.
Only a viewController in a viewController structure (like tabbarcontroller or navigationcontroller) gets (and handles) rotation events. If you just added the views of some viewControllers, they won't actually rotate, but they will change their framesize accordingly to the new size of the main view. In general you should use autoresizingMasks on every view. Read about them in the documentation.
But in a scrollView there is probably no autolayouting possible. You could overwrite layoutSubviews: in your main view to handle the layout of all scrollView subviews based on the scrollView frame.
Perhaps you can detect when the device is rotated, then using the transform property apply the necessary rotation programmatically using CGAffineTransformMakeRotation(-M_PI_2), for example...

Good day,
I have a question about programmatically adding UITableView inside UIScrollView. The structure is like that:
UIView
UIScrollView
UIView(contentView)
UIImageView
UITableView
How can I add the UITableView programmatically inside UIScrollView so when I scroll horizontally to switch between UIImageView and UITableView. Note I am using Autolayout so I need to add constraints also. If it is going to be easier with storyboard please let me know how to do it with storyboard instead of programmatically
I used SwipeView it is pretty easy to use 5 minutes installation and did what I was looking for.
I have a background image that is added to UIScrollView with zoom enabled. I am trying to add additional UIImage's on top of the background image that zoom together with the background image?
The idea is to have a background with multiple playing cards were the user can either see the whole playing field with small playing cards or zoom in the whole background including the playing cards for better views on the playing cards.
Your UIScrollview should contain a single zoomable UIView subview. That subview should contain your background UIImageView and all of the card UIImageViews as it's own subviews (if you add the background image first, it will be layered at the back of the resulting composite view)
The containing UIView that is the immediate subview of your scrollview should be the return value to the UIScrollviewDelegate method
- (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
You can manage your view hierarchy through a UIView's subviews property, which is an NSArray of views. They are layered in the order of the array, so the first view on the array will be at the back when the views are composited for display.
Well you could use the scrollviewdidzoom delegate method to notify you when the scroll view has been zoomed in and out.
From there you could do a number of things like present new UIImages at a specific zoom level using the scrollView.zoomScale property.
Let me know if this helps.
I was trying to add a pinch gesture zoom-in zoom-out feature to a UITextView and then I decided that adding a pinch gesture which zooms the whole screen, covering the whole view hierarchy is a better and more general solution. But I am confused about how to do it: Should I change the frame sizes of all UIView objects or should I somehow scale them? What is the most correct way to do it?
Put all your views in a UIScrollView and then return the view in this delegate method of UIScrollView
- (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
Imagine, there is a UIViewController with a UIScrollView in it. At the top of the view there is an UIImageView, some UILabels and other things. Furthermore, there is a UITableView which content is Dynamic Prototypes. I attach a picture to make it clear:
I haven't got a static amount of cells in the UITableView so it could be scrollable. My problem is the following: the UITableView scrolls in itself but I want to scroll the whole View. What is the best possibility to do that?
Possible solutions I've founded today
1) The first thing is: I create a UITableViewController and declare a header section in which I include all my labels, images etc. programmatically (I would love to use the interface builder for that...)
2) Another solution is to calculate the height of the view. I tried the best to do it like this way - but: without success. If this is the best way to do that: Can anybody give an example?
I would ditch the UIScrollView and just use a UITableView. You can add a UIView object as the tableHeaderView of the UITableView just by dragging it in in Interface Builder. Now since everything is part of the UITableView hierarchy, everything will scroll together as expected.
You could also try setting delaysContentTouches to NO on your scrollView. Depending on your setup, this may make the scroll view respond to the touch first instead of the table view.
From Apples UIScrollView Docs:
delaysContentTouches
A Boolean value that determines whether the scroll view delays the
handling of touch-down gestures.
#property(nonatomic) BOOL delaysContentTouches
Discussion
If the value of this property is YES, the scroll view delays handling
the touch-down gesture until it can determine if scrolling is the
intent. If the value is NO , the scroll view immediately calls
touchesShouldBegin:withEvent:inContentView:. The default
value is YES.
You'll have to (as you've mentioned) add the UIView containing the image and buttons to the actual UITableView. Embedding it in the scroll view will produce the undesired behavior that you're seeing.
I would recommend returning the UIView as the header view for the first section of your table view. You can do this by implementing the UITableViewDelegate method:
- (UIView *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView viewForHeaderInSection:(NSInteger)section;
If you maintain an IBOutlet to the view containing your image/labels, you can return it here.
this is same demo i hope its helps you from iphone sorce code library

thank you
I have two UIScrollViews that I move images between. The user can drag and forth between the scroll views. I am trying to animate the movement of the image from one scroll view to another. In -touchesMoved (handled in my UIViewController which has two custom UIScrollViews that intercept touch and sends to my UIViewController), I am trying to set the "center" of my UIImageView that is being moved. As it is moved, the image gets hidden behind the UIScrollView and not visible. How do I make it appear on top of the UIScrollView? I am able to handle the -touchesEnded properly by animating in the destination scroll view.
I am also confused about -convertPoint:fromView: usage in the iPhone Programming Guide (See Chapter 3, Event Handling). If the touch coordinates are in window coordinates, to change my view (UIImageView inside a UIScrollView which is inside a UIView and inside a window) center don't I have to use -convertPoint:toView:, i.e.,
imageView.center = [self.view.window convertPoint:currentTouchPosition toView:imageView];
What am I missing?
You can use the method - (void)bringSubviewToFront:(UIView *)view for making the image view the front most view.

It depends on how you structured your views. If both scrollviews and the imageview are at the same level, it should work. If the imageview is a subview of one of the scrollviews, you can try bringing the scrollview to the front. That way also the imageview will be drawn over the other scrollview.
Johan
I have a View Controller with two ScrollViews. Images are added as subviews. ScrollViews are already in the front. I tried bringing scrollview to the front and also imageview of the scrollview to the front. But somehow when i drag, the center of the image goes over my other scrollview2 which i also tried sending back. But does not seem to work. Here is what i do, in TouchesMove (inside a ViewController)
view= [[scrollView1 subviews] objectAtIndex:currentImageIndex];
[self.view bringSubviewToFront:scrollView1];
[scrollView1 bringSubviewToFront:view];
[self.view sendSubviewToBack:scrollView2];
scrollView1 and scrollView2 are two scrollviews that are part of the ViewController's view.
Does this make sense ?
thanks
