UITableView and UIView gesture conflict - ios

Question

I'm trying to add UITableView inside UIView but I got problem with gesture recognizer. This is my code:
_subView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, screenRect.size.height-100, screenRect.size.width, 300)];
_subView.backgroundColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:0.110f green:0.192f blue:0.298f alpha:1.00f];
[self.view addSubview:_subView];
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleFingerTap =
[[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(subViewToggle)];
[_subView addGestureRecognizer:singleFingerTap];
_moreTable = [[UITableView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0,50, screenRect.size.width, 240)];
//Transforme to HOR scroll ;
CGRect frame = _moreTable.frame;
_moreTable.transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(CGAffineTransformIdentity, k90DegreesCounterClockwiseAngle);
_moreTable.frame = frame;
[_moreTable registerNib:[UINib nibWithNibName:#"MoreTableViewCell" bundle:nil] forCellReuseIdentifier:#"moreCell"];
_moreTable.backgroundColor = [UIColor groupTableViewBackgroundColor];
_moreTable.delegate = self;
_moreTable.dataSource = self;
[_subView addSubview:_moreTable];
[_subView bringSubviewToFront:_moreTable];
The problem is when I click on table cell instead of executing didSelectRowAtIndexPath method he execute the subViewToggle Method. I tried to bring my tableView to front but didn't help

Answer 1

your tap gesture eat the touch. there are two way you can deal:
first, you can implement - gestureRecognizer:shouldReceiveTouch: delegate method, and decide if tap gesture should occur.
second, you also can set cancelsTouchesInView property of tap to NO, so tableView will receive touch. but tap will receive touch at the some time too.

Answer 2

Try implementing the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol's gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:
This should call both your didSelectRow and GestureRecognizer

Answer 3

Please try to use like this
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch
{
if ([touch.view == _moreTable]) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}

Answer 4

To solve this Problem I've changed the UIView Gesture from single finger tap to moveUP and moveDown gesture.
Note that I've tried only #dharmbir Solution and It haven't worked for me.
Update Also this solution, implementing the shouldReciveTouches, worked for the tapGesture and her's the code snippet :
-(BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
// UITableViewCellContentView => UITableViewCell
if([touch.view.superview isKindOfClass:[UITableViewCell class]]) {
return NO;
}
// UITableViewCellContentView => UITableViewCellScrollView => UITableViewCell
if([touch.view.superview.superview isKindOfClass:[UITableViewCell class]]) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}

//Create tap gesture for menu transparent view
UITapGestureRecognizer *rightTableTransparentViewTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(rightTableTransparentViewTapMethod:)];
[rightTableTransparentViewTap setCancelsTouchesInView:NO];
[_rightTableTransparentView addGestureRecognizer:rightTableTransparentViewTap];
- (void)rightTableTransparentViewTapMethod:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
//Write your code here
}
