Get scroll position of UIPageViewController
UIPageViewController scroll doesn't work like normal scrollview and you can't get scrollView.contentOffset like other scrollViews.
so here is a trick to get what's going on when user scrolls :
first you have to find scrollview and set delegate to current viewController like other answers said.
class YourViewController : UIPageViewController {
var startOffset = CGFloat(0) //define this
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
//from other answers
for v in view.subviews{
if v is UIScrollView {
(v as! UIScrollView).delegate = self
}
}
}
.
.
.
}
extension YourViewController : UIScrollViewDelegate{
func scrollViewWillBeginDragging(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
startOffset = scrollView.contentOffset.x
}
public func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
var direction = 0 //scroll stopped
if startOffset < scrollView.contentOffset.x {
direction = 1 //going right
}else if startOffset > scrollView.contentOffset.x {
direction = -1 //going left
}
let positionFromStartOfCurrentPage = abs(startOffset - scrollView.contentOffset.x)
let percent = positionFromStartOfCurrentPage / self.view.frame.width
//you can decide what to do with scroll
}
}
You can search for the UIScrollView inside your UIPageViewController
. To do that, you will have to implement the UIScrollViewDelegate
.
After that you can get your scrollView:
for v in pageViewController.view.subviews{
if v.isKindOfClass(UIScrollView){
(v as UIScrollView).delegate = self
}
}
After that, you are able to use all the UIScrollViewDelegate-methods and so you can override the scrollViewDidScroll
method where you can get the scrollPosition:
func scrollViewDidScroll(scrollView: UIScrollView) {
//your Code
}
Or if you want a one-liner:
let scrollView = view.subviews.filter { $0 is UIScrollView }.first as! UIScrollView
scrollView.delegate = self
