UIScrollView won't scroll even when I set content size

I have a UIView that is a subview of UIScrollView.

I've done this to set the content size in viewDidLoad (useful snippet I found on this site):

CGFloat scrollViewHeight = 0.0f;
for (UIView* view in self.scrollView.subviews)
{
    scrollViewHeight += view.frame.开发者_StackOverflow社区size.height;
}

[self.scrollView setContentSize:(CGSizeMake(320, scrollViewHeight))];

Using NSLogs I've determined the content size height is greater than the height of the scroll view. But, it still won't scroll. (I'm only interested in vertical scrolling.)

Scrolling is enabled in IB, so what am I missing?

This also happened to me - seems like when view is loaded from nib file some resizing happens after viewDidLoad and even after viewWillAppear. The call stack shows it is resizeWithOldSuperviewSize who is doing that

I didn't find a proper solution yet except setting contentSize later by calling performSelector:withObject:afterDelay

-(void)viewDidLoad
{
    [self performSelector:@selector(adjustScrollViewContentSize) withObject:nil afterDelay:0.1];
}

-(void)adjustScrollViewContentSize
{
    _scrollView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(4000, 4000);
}

is userInteractionEnabled property equal to TRUE? Perhaps you have a subview over your scrollview that is stealing the touches?

I agree with Sepehr. Something else must be stealing your touches. You can test this buy adding UIScollViewDelegate to your class and add one of the event call back methods below. If when you touch your scroll view they dont get called then you know Sepehr is correct.

(void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
(void)scrollViewWillBeginDragging:(UIScrollView *)scrollView

The issue comes from auto layout setting the contentSize based on constraints. Since my view was complex and auto layout was not up to the task I solved it by overriding setContentView: and ignoring auto layouts zero height setContentSize: message.

@interface MyView : UIScrollView {}
@end

@implementation MyView
- (void)setContentSize:(CGSize)aSize {
    if (aSize.height > 0)
        [super setContentSize:aSize];
}
@end

As an alternative to the use of performSelector:withObject:afterDelay suggested by ddenis, you could call setContentSize in viewDidLayoutSubviews:

- (void)viewDidLayoutSubviews {
    [super viewDidLayoutSubviews];
    //do stuff here to calculate the content width and height
    // ...
    //then set the content size accordingly
    [self.scrollView setContentSize:(CGSizeMake(contentWidth, contentHeight))];
}
