title: Is it possible to have embed segue/containing view in a scrollview with code?
body: <p>On an iPhone project I'm using Xcode storyboard to embed a few containing views in a main scroll view. I've heard containing view is also an "embed segue". Now I don't necessarily have to embed other child controllers, I could have just created custom views and have the original child controllers' logic in those custom subviews. (I think I'm just going to do that after posting here, because it seems easier.) But I've already done the code and want to know how easy or hard it is to stay with it.</p>
  
  <p>Because scroll view content is greater than the main screen bounds, it's harder to layout the container view in storyboard. I can think of three ways to solve it. I can either</p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>Drag the scroll view up and down and put my container views there.</li>
  <li>Just drag some view in the scroll view, and then resize the frame in the main controller's viewDidLoad. (And if I'm using auto layout then I would add auto layout there) But just seems to defy the advantage of having storyboard and embed segue in the first place. But it seems easier than #3 if I have to interact with child view controllers.</li>
  <li>Forget storyboard and just write a Containing controller logic (as described in WWDC 2012 video Implementing UIViewController Containment) but this appears to be complicated.</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Is there a way to create embed segue in Xcode, but NOT putting it in but to do something like a "manual segue" as with other view transitions? I wouldn't be able to see the layout in storyboard but at least it'll be easier than #3 and I don't have to drag up and down like #2 which seems silly.</p>
