Tap Gesture subview touch detect - ios

Question

i am creating drawer
self.isShowMenuVC = NO;
_menuView = [MenuViewController viewController];
[self.menuView setDelegate:self];
[self addChildViewController:self.menuView];
[self.menuView.view setFrame:CGRectMake(-kMenuTableWidth, 0, kMenuTableWidth, self.view.frame.size.height)];
[self.view addSubview:self.menuView.view];
[self.menuView didMoveToParentViewController:self];
UITapGestureRecognizer *outsideTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(outsideTapped:)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:outsideTap];
outsideTap.delegate = self;
and when button tap i just set frame of _menuView.view to behave like a drawer
what i want is to detect touch outside of drawer but i am not able to do it
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if (touch.view == self.menuView.view) {
NSLog(#"Touch Drawer");
} else {
NSLog(#"Touch Outside");
}
return YES;
}
but it is always show Touch Outside"
i am missing something but don't know what thanks in advance
Also try with 2 gesture but not working because one gesture in self.view so, when i tap in drawer method call 2 times.
for that i tried to disable one gesture, still calling two times
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if (gestureRecognizer == self.touchInDrawer) {
NSLog(#"Touch in drawer");
[self.touchOutSideDrawer setEnabled:NO];
} else {
NSLog(#"Outside");
[self hideMenuView];
}
return YES;
}

Answer 1

The UITapGestureRecognizer cannot detect the touch outside the view which it belongs to.
You need to create another UITapGestureRecognizer and add them to self.menuView.view.
Also you can make two #property for your gesture recognizers and check them inside method:
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if (gestureRecognizer == self.firstGesture) {
NSLog(#"Touch in first gesture");
} else {
NSLog(#"Touch in another gesture");
}

Answer 2

I have solve this issue with adding two gesture
#property (strong,nonatomic) UITapGestureRecognizer *touchInDrawer;
#property (strong,nonatomic) UITapGestureRecognizer *touchOutSideDrawer;
as per #Eugene Zaychenko's Answer but there is still problem because delegate method calling two times
also i can't [self.touchOutSideDrawer setEnabled:NO]; when touch in drawer tapped, because after that it will remove from the view and never executed again if [self.touchOutSideDrawer setEnabled:YES];
but most interesting thing is
_touchInDrawer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(outsideTapped:)];
[self.menuView.view addGestureRecognizer:self.touchInDrawer];
self.touchInDrawer.delegate = self;
_touchOutSideDrawer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(outsideTapped:)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:self.touchOutSideDrawer];
self.touchOutSideDrawer.delegate = self;
outsideTapped method calling only one time so i shifted my all code there and is working
- (void) outsideTapped:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer {
if (gestureRecognizer == self.touchOutSideDrawer) {
// [self.view removeGestureRecognizer:self.touchOutSideDrawer];
[self hideMenuView];
NSLog(#"Outside");
} else {
NSLog(#"Touch in drawer");
// [self.touchOutSideDrawer setEnabled:NO];
}
}
