Using ScrollView Programmatically in Swift 3

Two things.
1. Add the labels to scroll view, not your view
You want your label to scroll with scroll view, then you should not add it on your view. When running your code, you can scroll but the fixed label there is pinned to your view, not on your scroll view
2. Make sure you added your constraints correctly
Try it on your storyboard about what combination of constraint is enough for a view. At least 4 constraints are needed for a label.
Bottom line
Here is a modified version of your code. For constraint I added padding left, padding top, width and height and it works. My code is
let labelOne: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Top"
label.backgroundColor = .red
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
let labelTwo: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Bottom"
label.backgroundColor = .green
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let screensize: CGRect = UIScreen.main.bounds
let screenWidth = screensize.width
let screenHeight = screensize.height
var scrollView: UIScrollView!
scrollView = UIScrollView(frame: CGRect(x: 0, y: 120, width: screenWidth, height: screenHeight))
scrollView.addSubview(labelTwo)
NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelTwo, attribute: .leading, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: scrollView, attribute: .leadingMargin, multiplier: 1, constant: 10).isActive = true
NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelTwo, attribute: .width, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: nil, attribute: .notAnAttribute, multiplier: 1, constant: 200).isActive = true
NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelTwo, attribute: .top, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: scrollView, attribute: .topMargin, multiplier: 1, constant: 10).isActive = true
NSLayoutConstraint(item: labelTwo, attribute: .height, relatedBy: .equal, toItem: nil, attribute: .notAnAttribute, multiplier: 1, constant: 30).isActive = true
scrollView.contentSize = CGSize(width: screenWidth, height: 2000)
view.addSubview(scrollView)
}
And the scroll view looks like this
It is easy to use constraints to define the scroll content size - so you don't have to do any manual calculations.
Just remember:
- The content elements of your scroll view must have left / top / width / height values. In the case of objects such as labels, they have intrinsic sizes, so you only have to define the left & top.
- The content elements of your scroll view also define the bounds of the scrollable area - the
contentSize- but they do so with the bottom & right constraints. - Combining those two concepts, you see that you need a "continuous chain" with at least one element defining the top / left / bottom / right extents.
Here is a simple example, that will run directly in a Playground page:
import UIKit
import PlaygroundSupport
class TestViewController : UIViewController {
let labelOne: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Top"
label.backgroundColor = .red
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
let labelTwo: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Bottom"
label.backgroundColor = .green
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
let scrollView: UIScrollView = {
let v = UIScrollView()
v.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
v.backgroundColor = .cyan
return v
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// add the scroll view to self.view
self.view.addSubview(scrollView)
// constrain the scroll view to 8-pts on each side
scrollView.leftAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.leftAnchor, constant: 8.0).isActive = true
scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.topAnchor, constant: 8.0).isActive = true
scrollView.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.rightAnchor, constant: -8.0).isActive = true
scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: view.bottomAnchor, constant: -8.0).isActive = true
// add labelOne to the scroll view
scrollView.addSubview(labelOne)
// constrain labelOne to left & top with 16-pts padding
// this also defines the left & top of the scroll content
labelOne.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.leadingAnchor, constant: 16.0).isActive = true
labelOne.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor, constant: 16.0).isActive = true
// add labelTwo to the scroll view
scrollView.addSubview(labelTwo)
// constrain labelTwo at 400-pts from the left
labelTwo.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.leadingAnchor, constant: 400.0).isActive = true
// constrain labelTwo at 1000-pts from the top
labelTwo.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.topAnchor, constant: 1000).isActive = true
// constrain labelTwo to right & bottom with 16-pts padding
labelTwo.rightAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.rightAnchor, constant: -16.0).isActive = true
labelTwo.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: scrollView.bottomAnchor, constant: -16.0).isActive = true
}
}
let vc = TestViewController()
vc.view.backgroundColor = .yellow
PlaygroundPage.current.liveView = vc
Edit - since this answer still gets occasional attention, I've updated the code to use more modern syntax, to respect the safe-area, and to use the scroll view's .contentLayoutGuide:
class TestViewController : UIViewController {
let labelOne: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Top"
label.backgroundColor = .yellow
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
let labelTwo: UILabel = {
let label = UILabel()
label.text = "Scroll Bottom"
label.backgroundColor = .green
label.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
return label
}()
let scrollView: UIScrollView = {
let v = UIScrollView()
v.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false
v.backgroundColor = .cyan
return v
}()
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// add the scroll view to self.view
self.view.addSubview(scrollView)
// add labelOne to the scroll view
scrollView.addSubview(labelOne)
// add labelTwo to the scroll view
scrollView.addSubview(labelTwo)
// always a good idea to respect safe area
let safeG = view.safeAreaLayoutGuide
// we want to constrain subviews to the scroll view's Content Layout Guide
let contentG = scrollView.contentLayoutGuide
NSLayoutConstraint.activate([
// constrain the scroll view to safe area with 8-pts on each side
scrollView.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: safeG.topAnchor, constant: 8.0),
scrollView.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: safeG.leadingAnchor, constant: 8.0),
scrollView.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: safeG.trailingAnchor, constant: -8.0),
scrollView.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: safeG.bottomAnchor, constant: -8.0),
// constrain labelOne to leading & top of Content Layout Guide with 16-pts padding
// this also defines the left & top of the scroll content
labelOne.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentG.topAnchor, constant: 16.0),
labelOne.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentG.leadingAnchor, constant: 16.0),
// constrain labelTwo leading at 400-pts from labelOne trailing
labelTwo.leadingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: labelOne.trailingAnchor, constant: 400.0),
// constrain labelTwo top at 1000-pts from the labelOne bottom
labelTwo.topAnchor.constraint(equalTo: labelOne.bottomAnchor, constant: 1000),
// constrain labelTwo to trailing & bottom of Content Layout Guide with 16-pts padding
// this also defines the right & bottom of the scroll content
labelTwo.trailingAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentG.trailingAnchor, constant: -16.0),
labelTwo.bottomAnchor.constraint(equalTo: contentG.bottomAnchor, constant: -16.0),
])
}
}
