Disabling vertical scrolling in UIScrollView

Question

There is an option in IB to uncheck vertical scrolling on a scrollview, but it doesnt seem to work.

How can the scrollview be set to only scroll horizontally, and no

Answer 1

The most obvious solution is to forbid y-coordinate changes in your subclass.

override var contentOffset: CGPoint {
  get {
    return super.contentOffset
  }
  set {
    super.contentOffset = CGPoint(x: newValue.x, y: 0)
  }
}

This is the only suitable solution in situations when:

1. You are not allowed or just don't want to use delegate.
2. Your content height is larger than container height
