I have a UIScrollView with 10 pages. I am able to flick between them. I also want to have 2 buttons (a back button and a next button) which when touched will go to the previ
You can do it this way :
CGRect lastVisibleRect;
CGSize contentSize = [_scrollView contentSize];
lastVisibleRect.size.height = contentSize.height;
lastVisibleRect.origin.y = 0.0;
lastVisibleRect.size.width = PAGE_WIDTH;
lastVisibleRect.origin.x = contentSize.width - PAGE_WIDTH * (_totalItems - pageIndex); // total item of scrollview and your current page index
[_scrollView scrollRectToVisible:lastVisibleRect animated:NO];
Here is a static method in swift:
static func scrollToPage(scrollView: UIScrollView, page: Int, animated: Bool) {
var frame: CGRect = scrollView.frame
frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * CGFloat(page);
frame.origin.y = 0;
scrollView.scrollRectToVisible(frame, animated: animated)
}
Here is an implementation for Swift 4:
func scrollToPage(page: Int, animated: Bool) {
var frame: CGRect = self.scrollView.frame
frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * CGFloat(page)
frame.origin.y = 0
self.scrollView.scrollRectToVisible(frame, animated: animated)
}
and is easily invoked by calling:
self.scrollToPage(1, animated: true)
Edit:
A nicer way of doing this is to support both horizontal and vertical pagination. Here is a convenient extension for that:
extension UIScrollView {
func scrollTo(horizontalPage: Int? = 0, verticalPage: Int? = 0, animated: Bool? = true) {
var frame: CGRect = self.frame
frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * CGFloat(horizontalPage ?? 0)
frame.origin.y = frame.size.width * CGFloat(verticalPage ?? 0)
self.scrollRectToVisible(frame, animated: animated ?? true)
}
}
This creates an extension on UIScrollView where you can scroll to any page, vertical or horisontal.
self.scrollView.scrollTo(horizontalPage: 0)
self.scrollView.scrollTo(verticalPage: 2, animated: true)
self.scrollView.scrollTo(horizontalPage: 1, verticalPage: 2, animated: true)
scroll.contentOffset = CGPointMake(scroll.frame.size.width*pageNo, 0);
For Swift 3 this is an extension that I find very convenient:
extension UIScrollView {
func scrollToPage(index: UInt8, animated: Bool, after delay: TimeInterval) {
let offset: CGPoint = CGPoint(x: CGFloat(index) * frame.size.width, y: 0)
DispatchQueue.main.asyncAfter(deadline: .now() + delay, execute: {
self.setContentOffset(offset, animated: animated)
})
}
}
And you call it like this:
scrollView.scrollToPage(index: 1, animated: true, after: 0.5)
You just tell the buttons to scroll to the page's location:
CGRect frame = scrollView.frame;
frame.origin.x = frame.size.width * pageNumberYouWantToGoTo;
frame.origin.y = 0;
[scrollView scrollRectToVisible:frame animated:YES];
