UIScrollView not recognising ShakeGesture - ios

ScrollView is not recognising shake gesture
I have 3 files.
1.ContentVC - consists of scrollView to swipe between viewcontrollers
2.FirstVC - It contains shakegesture function
3.SecondVC - default view controller
When i shake the device nothing happens.
ContentVC.swift
class ContainerVC: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var scroll: UIScrollView!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let left = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "vw") as! UINavigationController
self.addChild(left)
self.scroll.addSubview(left.view)
self.didMove(toParent: self)
let last = self.storyboard?.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "lastviewNav") as! UINavigationController
self.addChild(last)
self.scroll.addSubview(last.view)
self.didMove(toParent: self)
var middleframe:CGRect = last.view.frame
middleframe.origin.x = self.view.frame.width
last.view.frame = middleframe
self.scroll.contentSize = CGSize(width: (self.view.frame.width) * 2, height: (self.view.frame.height))
}
}
FirstVC.swift
override func motionEnded(_ motion: UIEvent.EventSubtype, with event: UIEvent?) {
if event?.subtype == UIEvent.EventSubtype.motionShake {
if motion == .motionShake {
print("quote is appearing by shaking the device")
} else {
print("No quote is coming")
}
}
}

Motion events are delivered initially to the first responder and are forwarded up the responder chain as appropriate.
https://developer.apple.com/documentation/uikit/uiresponder/1621090-motionended
So make sure that:
FirstVC able to became first responder:
override var canBecomeFirstResponder: Bool {
return true
}
FirstVC is first responder at specific point of time:
firstVC.becomeFirstResponder()
Now your UIViewController will be able to receive shake motion events.

Offset on UIWindow causes the tab bar to show twice when swiping back

I am able to move the system keyboard above the tab bar by moving its window up when keyboardWillShowNotification is sent. However when the view controller is embedded in a navigation controller and I'm slowly swiping back, the tab bar appears twice. Also the offset resets to normal if the swipe is cancelled (obviously since kyeboardWillShow event is not triggered). Observing keyboardWillChangeFrame also doesn't apply.
Here is some sample code to show exactly what I'm doing:
import UIKit
import Foundation
class ViewController: UIViewController { }
class SecondViewController: UIViewController {
let textField = UITextField(frame: CGRect(x: 150, y: 150, width: 150, height: 150))
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
textField.keyboardType = .decimalPad
view.addSubview(textField)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillShow(notification:)), name: UIResponder.keyboardWillShowNotification, object: nil)
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(keyboardWillHide(notification:)), name: UIResponder.keyboardWillHideNotification, object: nil)
}
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
textField.becomeFirstResponder()
}
}
extension SecondViewController {
private var keyboardOffset: CGFloat {
return -tabBarHeight
}
private var tabBarHeight: CGFloat {
return tabBarController?.tabBar.frame.height ?? 0
}
private var keyboardWindowPredicate: (UIWindow) -> Bool {
return { $0.windowLevel > UIWindow.Level.normal }
}
private var keyboardWindow: UIWindow? {
return UIApplication.shared.windows.last(where: keyboardWindowPredicate)
}
#objc private func keyboardWillShow(notification: NSNotification) {
if let keyboardSize = (notification.userInfo?[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as? NSValue)?.cgRectValue, let keyboardWindow = keyboardWindow {
keyboardWindow.frame.origin.y = keyboardOffset
}
}
#objc private func keyboardWillHide(notification: NSNotification) {
if let keyboardSize = (notification.userInfo?[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as? NSValue)?.cgRectValue, let keyboardWindow = keyboardWindow {
keyboardWindow.frame.origin.y = 0
}
}
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
textField.resignFirstResponder()
}
}
extension Sequence {
func last(where predicate: (Element) throws -> Bool) rethrows -> Element? {
return try reversed().first(where: predicate)
}
}
Can anyone explain why does this happen and what can I do to prevent this? I know that moving the keyboard is not something usual in iOS, but it was not my decision and I'm trying to work with it.
Maybe the reason is the following:
The docs to touchesBegan(_:with:) say:
UIKit calls this method when a new touch is detected in a view or
window. Many UIKit classes override this method and use it to handle
the corresponding touch events. The default implementation of this
method forwards the message up the responder chain. When creating your
own subclasses, call super to forward any events that you do not
handle yourself. For example, [super touchesBegan:touches
withEvent:event]; If you override this method without calling super (a
common use pattern), you must also override the other methods for
handling touch events, even if your implementations do nothing.
So the 1st thing I would do is to override, as requested by the docs,
the other methods for handling touch requests, even if your
implementations do nothing

How can I create a working interruptible view controller transition on iOS?

iOS 10 added a new function for custom animated view controller transitions called
interruptibleAnimator(using:)
Lots of people appear to be using the new function, however by simply implementing their old animateTransition(using:) within the animation block of a UIViewPropertyAnimator in interruptibleAnimator(using:) (see Session 216 from 2016)
However I can't find a single example of someone actually using the interruptible animator for creating interruptible transitions. Everyone seems to support it, but no one actually uses it.
For example, I created a custom transition between two UIViewControllers using a UIPanGestureRecognizer. Both view controllers have a backgroundColor set, and a UIButton in the middle that changes the backgroundColour on touchUpInside.
Now I've implemented the animation simply as:
Setup the toViewController.view to be positioned to the
left/right (depending on the direction needed) of the
fromViewController.view
In the UIViewPropertyAnimator animation block, I slide the
toViewController.view into view, and the fromViewController.view out
of view (off screen).
Now, during transition, I want to be able to press that UIButton. However, the button press was not called. Odd, this is how the session implied things should work, I setup a custom UIView to be the view of both of my UIViewControllers as follows:
class HitTestView: UIView {
override func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> UIView? {
let view = super.hitTest(point, with: event)
if view is UIButton {
print("hit button, point: \(point)")
}
return view
}
}
class ViewController: UIViewController {
let button = UIButton(type: .custom)
override func loadView() {
self.view = HitTestView(frame: UIScreen.main.bounds)
}
<...>
}
and logged out the func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> UIView? results. The UIButton is being hitTested, however, the buttons action is not called.
Has anyone gotten this working?
Am I thinking about this wrong and are interruptible transitions just to pausing/resuming a transition animation, and not for interaction?
Almost all of iOS11 uses what I believe are interruptible transitions, allowing you to, for example, pull up control centre 50% of the way and interact with it without releasing the control centre pane then sliding it back down. This is exactly what I wish to do.
Thanks in advance! Spent way to long this summer trying to get this working, or finding someone else trying to do the same.
I have published sample code and a reusable framework that demonstrates interruptible view controller animation transitions. It's called PullTransition and it makes it easy to either dismiss or pop a view controller simply by swiping downward. Please let me know if the documentation needs improvement. I hope this helps!
Here you go! A short example of an interruptible transition. Add your own animations in the addAnimation block to get things going.

}
guard let fromVC = transitionContext.viewController(forKey: .from),

// Do prep work for animations

touchBegan and TouchEnded overrides are affecting another UIViewController

I have this UIViewController in which i've overrided the touchBegan and touchEnded functions. I also have a button that segueues (push) to another view controller with an SKView on it. But the overrided function in the first controller are still active ei. the calculations done there are still showing on the second ViewController.
Maybe theres something im missing or something im assuming thats wrong. Any help would be appreciated
This is the first view controller
import UIKit
import CoreMotion
class PortraitViewController: UIViewController {
var vc: UIViewController?
var startPoint: CGPoint?
var endPoint: CGPoint?
var movedPoint: CGPoint?
var previousMove = CGPoint(x: 0, y: 0)
var beginTouch: UITouch?
var scaleSum = 0
var isPortrait = true
let DEBUG: Bool = true
// MARK:
// MARK: Overriden Variables
open override var supportedInterfaceOrientations: UIInterfaceOrientationMask{return .portrait}
open override var preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation: UIInterfaceOrientation{return .portrait}
override var shouldAutorotate: Bool {return false}
#IBAction func pinch(_ sender: UIPinchGestureRecognizer) {
if (isPortrait){
let scale = sender.scale
scaleSum += scale.exponent
print(scaleSum)
if(scaleSum > 10) {
scaleSum = 0
print(">10")
}
else if(scaleSum < -10) {
print("<10")
}
}
}
override func touchesEnded(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
if(isPortrait){
if let theTouch = touches.first {
endPoint = theTouch.location(in: self.view)
let diffx = (endPoint!.x - startPoint!.x)
let diffy = (endPoint!.y - startPoint!.y)
if(diffx != 0 && diffy != 0){
let vector = CGVector(dx: diffx, dy: diffy)
var angle = atan2(vector.dy, vector.dx) * CGFloat(180.0 / M_PI)
if angle < 0 { angle *= -1 } else { angle = 360 - angle }
}
}
}
super.touchesEnded(touches, with: event)
}
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
if(isPortrait){
if let theTouch = touches.first {
startPoint = theTouch.location(in: self.view)
}
}
super.touchesBegan(touches, with: event)
}
//One of my attempts to jerry rig a solution
#IBAction func prepToLandscape(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
self.isPortrait = false
print("isPortrait = \(self.isPortrait)")
}
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: false)
}
}
This is the second view controller
import UIKit
import CoreMotion
import SpriteKit
class LandScapeViewController: UIViewController {
var vc: UIViewController?
// MARK:
// MARK: Overriden Variables
open override var supportedInterfaceOrientations: UIInterfaceOrientationMask{return .landscape}
open override var preferredInterfaceOrientationForPresentation: UIInterfaceOrientation{return .landscapeLeft
// MARK:
// MARK: Functions
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
let controllerStoryBoard = UIStoryboard(name: "Main", bundle: nil)
vc = controllerStoryBoard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "Root")
// Part of my attempt to jerry rig a solution
let vcP: PortraitViewController = UIStoryboard(name:"Controller",bundle: nil).instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "PortraitController") as! PortraitViewController
vcP.isPortrait = false
print("vcP.isPortrait = \(vcP.isPortrait)")
}
override func viewWillAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
self.view.isMultipleTouchEnabled = true
let scene = GameScene(size: joystickView.bounds.size)
scene.backgroundColor = .gray
if let skView = joystickView as? SKView {
skView.showsFPS = false
skView.ignoresSiblingOrder = true
skView.backgroundColor = .red
skView.presentScene(scene)
}
navigationController?.setNavigationBarHidden(true, animated: false)
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
}
#IBAction func toPortrait(_ sender: UIBarButtonItem) {
self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: {() -> Void in
}
}
Assuming the code shown is everything relevant, this makes sense. What's happening is this: the touch events are hit-tested to the joystickView, but because you haven't implemented a custom touchesBegan(_:with:) on that view, the touch event is passed up to the next UIResponder in the responder chain. That would be the LandScapeViewController. But that class also doesn't implement a custom touchesBegan(_:with:), so the event passes to the next class, which in this case is PortraitViewController. Because PortraitViewController does implement that method, it gets called. There's your confusion.
To fix this, implement the touches… methods on UIResponder for either joystickView or LandScapeViewController, even if they do nothing – but don't call super in them! Note the following, from the touchesBegan(_:with:) documentation:
If you override this method without calling super (a common use pattern), you must also override the other methods for handling touch events, even if your implementations do nothing.
Where you're overriding touchesBegan(_:with:), you probably don't want to call super. This is because the super implementation is the one that says "oh, shoot, I don't know how to handle this – pass it up the chain!" But when you handle the touch, it should end there, because you're handling it! So only call super when you're not handling the touch – which in your case looks like never, at least for PortraitViewController.

Dismiss UIPopoverPresentationController with any gesture, not just tap

So I have a simple UIPopoverPresentationController that displays some content.
User can dismiss it by tapping anywhere on the screen (default popover behaviour).
I want the popover to be dismissed if the user does any kind of tap or gesture on the screen. Preferably drag gesture.
Any idea if this is possible? And how?
try using touchesBegan:withEvent method
override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {
if let touch = touches.first {
if touch.view == self.view {
self.dismiss()
} else {
return
}
}
}
VC is the view presented in the popover.
in the presentViewController:animated:completion: block
[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:^{
UIView *v1 = vc.view.superview.superview.superview;
for (UIView* vx in v1.subviews) {
Class dimmingViewClass = NSClassFromString(#"UIDimmingView");
if ([vx isKindOfClass:[dimmingViewClass class]])
{
UIPanGestureRecognizer* pan = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(closePopoverOnSwipe)];
[vx addGestureRecognizer:pan];
}
}
}];
you have a UIDimmingView that holds the tap gesture that will close. just add to it. I am using the Class dimmingViewClass = NSClassFromString(#"UIDimmingView"); to avoid making direct use of undocumented APIs. I have not tried yet to send this hack to apple, but will try next week. I hope it will pass. But I tested this and it did call my selector.
I resolved this problem using custom view:
typealias Handler = (() -> Void)?
final class InteractionView: UIView {
var dismissHandler: Handler = nil
override func hitTest(_ point: CGPoint, with event: UIEvent?) -> UIView? {
return self
}
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
self.dismissHandler?()
}
}
In the viewDidAppear configure this view and add to popover containerView:
fileprivate func configureInteractionView() {
let interactionView = InteractionView(frame: self.view.bounds)
self.popoverPresentationController?.containerView?.addSubview(interactionView)
interactionView.backgroundColor = .clear
interactionView.isUserInteractionEnabled = true
interactionView.dismissHandler = { [weak self] in
self?.hide()
}
}
fileprivate func hide() {
self.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
my solution for this problem.
for example if you create a class UIViewController named MyPopoverViewController to present PopViewController.
then in the viewDidLoad() or viewWillAppear(_ animated:) Method add two GestureRecognizer as follows:
protocal MyPopoverControllerDelegate {
func shouldDismissPopover()
}
class MyPopoverViewController : UIViewController {
override func viewDidAppear(_ animated: Bool) {
super.viewDidAppear(animated)
// back trace to root view, if it is a UIWindows, add PanGestureRecognizer
// and LongPressGestureRecognizer, to dismiss this PopoverViewController
for c in sequence(first: self.view, next: { $0.superview}) {
if let w = c as? UIWindow {
let panGestureRecognizer = UIPanGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(dismissPopover(gesture:)))
w.addGestureRecognizer(panGestureRecognizer)
let longTapGestureRecognizer = UILongPressGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(dismissPopover(gesture:)))
w.addGestureRecognizer(longTapGestureRecognizer)
}
}
#objc private func dismissPopover(gesture: UIGestureRecognizer) {
delegate?.shouldDismissPopover()
}
}
then in your main ViewController, which this PopOverViewController presents, implements the Method of the Protocol.
extension YourMainViewController: MyPopoverControllerDelegate {
func shouldDismissPopover() {
self.presentedViewController?.dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}

prepareForSegue sending data to tableview in a container view

I am sending data from one tableview list to another tableview used as a detail view for the selected cell. Simple -
override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {
// Get the new view controller using segue.destinationViewController.
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
let index = tableView.indexPathForSelectedRow
if (segue.identifier == "EventDetailSegue") {
let detailVC = segue.destinationViewController as! EventDetailTableViewController
var event : Event
if searchController.active && searchController.searchBar.text != "" {
event = filteredEvents[index!.row]
} else {
event = events[index!.row]
}
detailVC.eventImage = event.image
detailVC.eventCompany = event.company
detailVC.eventName = event.name
detailVC.eventLocation = event.location
detailVC.eventPrice = event.price
detailVC.eventPromoterImage = event.promoterImage
}
}
Since I now want to have a static button bar on the bottom of the detail tableview. I need to change the EventDetailTableViewController to be in a container view on a UIViewController. So I can then simply do what I want inside the UIViewController.
My question is how do I still send this data to the now embedded EventDetailTableViewController inside the container view? Since the segue will now need to be going to the UIViewController with the container view, but I also need to make sure this data is passed to that TableView inside the container.
i use color instead of data :
EventDetailTableViewController ->ViewController3
UIViewController -> ViewController2
try like this :
class ViewController: UIViewController {
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
override func touchesBegan(touches: Set<UITouch>, withEvent event: UIEvent?) {
let tableVc = ViewController3()
tableVc.color = UIColor.redColor()
let vc = ViewController2()
vc.tableViewController = tableVc
self.navigationController?.pushViewController(vc, animated: true)
}
}
class ViewController2: UIViewController {
var tableViewController:ViewController3!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
view.backgroundColor = UIColor.yellowColor()
tableViewController.willMoveToParentViewController(self)
addChildViewController(tableViewController)
tableViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: 0, y: 100, width: 100, height: 100)
view.addSubview(tableViewController.view)
tableViewController.didMoveToParentViewController(self)
}
}
class ViewController3: UITableViewController {
var color :UIColor!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.view.backgroundColor = color
}
}
hope it be helpful :-)
