In the iOS 6.0 Release notes there is the following statement:
Note that you can make a subview of the scroll view appear to float
(not scroll) over the other scrolling content by creating constraints
between the view and a view outside the scroll view’s subtree, such as
the scroll view’s superview.
Anyone have any ideas?
I did some playing around and I have a working example of sorts.
The view does not scroll, it gets put at the top, with a height that is the difference between the scrollview hight and an arbitrary value.
// in viewDidLoad
UIIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] init];
[self.scrollView addSubview:myView];
myView.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.mapView
attribute:NSLayoutAttributeTop
relatedBy:(NSLayoutRelationEqual)
toItem:self.containerView
attribute:(NSLayoutAttributeTop)
multiplier:1.0
constant:0];
[self.view addConstraint:constraint];
// Give my view some intrinsic size
NSDictionary *dict = NSDictionaryOfVariableBindings(myView);
NSArray *constraints = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"|[myView]|"
options:(NSLayoutFormatAlignAllBaseline)
metrics:nil
views:dict];
[self.view addConstraints:constraints];
// In view did appear
// calc height from height of scroll view - this is needs work
float height = -self.scrollView.frame.size.height + 250;
NSLayoutConstraint *constraint = [NSLayoutConstraint constraintWithItem:self.mapView attribute:NSLayoutAttributeHeight
relatedBy:(NSLayoutRelationEqual)
toItem:self.containerView
attribute:(NSLayoutAttributeHeight)
multiplier:1.0
constant:offset];
[self.view addConstraint:constraint];
