ScrollView disable on Device Orientation

Question

I am using ScrollView on the screen while in portrait mode. When I change the orientation, can I disable the scrolling? ScrollView can be disabled from the storyboard or it needs to be solved using methods. I have tried size class to manage the disable and enable the scrolling.

These days, the concept of Portrait or Landscape has fallen out of favor. Your app may be running in multi-tasking mode on an iPad, for example, and could be "tall and narrow" even though the device is being held in "landscape" orientation.

It seems a little odd that you'd want to disable scrolling, but assuming that is your design goal -- you can set it in viewDidLayoutSubviews:

override func viewDidLayoutSubviews() {
    super.viewDidLayoutSubviews()
    
    // disable scrolling if view's width is greater than its height
    scrollView.isScrollEnabled = view.frame.height > view.frame.width
}
