How to disable horizontal scrolling of UIScrollView?
UPDATED: (After @EranMarom pointed out on his comment)
You can stop horizontal scrolling or vertical scrolling in the ScrollViewDelegate
Method.
Here it is how,
Stops Horizontal Scrolling:
If you want to scroll horizontally, then you need to increase the contentOffset.x. Preventing that stops the scrollview scroll in horizontal direction.
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender {
sender.contentOffset.x = 0.0
}
Stops Vertical Scrolling:
If you want to scroll vertically, then you need to increase the contentOffset.y. Preventing that stops the scrollview scroll in vertical direction.
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)sender {
sender.contentOffset.y = 0.0
}
Above code prevents the changes in x
and y
of a scrollview contentOffset
and it leads to stop the scrolling in scrollViewDidScroll:
method.
You have to set the contentSize
property of the UIScrollView
. For example, if your UIScrollView
is 320 pixels wide (the width of the screen), then you could do this:
CGSize scrollableSize = CGSizeMake(320, myScrollableHeight);
[myScrollView setContentSize:scrollableSize];
The UIScrollView
will then only scroll vertically, because it can already display everything horizontally.
