Once user double taps on image/screen, it adds an annotation on the screen. When it adds annotation image, I want also open a subview to add annotation detail. However, my subview does not come up.
Here is my code snippet.
#synthesize iViewController;
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
// adding gesture recognizer
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleTapGesture:)];
tapGesture.numberOfTapsRequired = 2;
[self.imvPhoto addGestureRecognizer:tapGesture];
tapGesture.delegate = self;
}
- (void)handleTapGesture:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender {
if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateRecognized) {
// Here is the code for subview adding
iViewController = [[InventoryViewController alloc] init];
[self.view addSubview:iViewController.view];
iViewController.view.frame = CGRectMake(100, 100, 320, 460);
}
}
Based on #rdelmar feedback, here is the solution:
iViewController = (InventoryViewController *)[self.storyboardinstantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"InventoryViewController"];
iViewController.view.frame = CGRectMake(728, 32, 300, 736);
[self.view addSubview:iViewController.view];

I added tapGesture for self.view and UILabel (subview of mainView), each performs different selectors.
But the only main view tapGesture is being called and label tapgesture is not being called. How it is handled?
Here is the code:
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGesForSelf = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapGesForSelf:)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapGesForSelf];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapLblClick = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapGesForLbl:)];
[lbl addGestureRecognizer:tapLblClick];
For two selectors only one method is called tapGesForSelf.
Here lbl is the subview of self.view.
Try this
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[_lbl setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGesForSelf = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapGesForSelf:)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapGesForSelf];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapLblClick = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapGesForLbl:)];
[_lbl addGestureRecognizer:tapLblClick];
[tapGesForSelf requireGestureRecognizerToFail:tapLblClick];
}
- (void)tapGesForSelf:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gesture
{
NSLog(#"self");
}
- (void)tapGesForLbl:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gesture
{
NSLog(#"label");
}
I post answer for your question now once I tried and it worked well.
First see the label in design.I set label text as "Tap Me"
Now I set the code for view and label
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
//TapGesture for Label
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapLabel = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(actionTapLabel:)];
tapLabel.delegate = self;
tapLabel.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
lblTapMe.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[lblTapMe addGestureRecognizer:tapLabel];
//TapGesture for View
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapMainView = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(actionTapMainView:)];
tapMainView.delegate = self;
tapMainView.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapMainView];
}
//Action method for Label
-(void)actionTapLabel:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gestureOnLabel{
UILabel *label = (UILabel *)gestureOnLabel.view;
NSLog(#"Lable text is - %#",label.text);
}
//Action method for View
-(void)actionTapMainView:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gestureOnMainView{
NSLog(#"The Main view is tapped");
}
Output Screenshot
Please setUserInteractionEnabled:YES for interact the TapGesture
[lbl setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
My scenario is that there will be many sub views in the main view and tapping on each sub view should generate different result.
My approach is for each sub view to implement its own tap recognizer, instead of for the main view to have one single tap recognizer and calculate the which sub view's area the user has tapped in. Is this a correct and viable approach?
I have tried this approach but it doesn't seem to work. The tap method never gets called. I read lots of articles on stackoverflow but they didn't seem to help.
For example, although the sub view is not an image view I still manually set its userInteractionEnabled property to YES, as some posts suggested. But that didn't help.
Below is the main code of the sub view:
- (void) handleOneTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)paramSender{
// *** Never gets called
NSUInteger touchCounter = 0; for (touchCounter = 0;
touchCounter < paramSender.numberOfTouchesRequired;
touchCounter++){
CGPoint touchPoint = [paramSender locationOfTouch:touchCounter
inView:paramSender.view];
NSLog(#"Touch #%lu: %#",
(unsigned long)touchCounter+1, NSStringFromCGPoint(touchPoint));
}
}
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
_container = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 50, 280, 300)];
[self.view addSubview:_container];
_container.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
_container.opaque = YES;
// setup tap recognizer
self.tapGestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleOneTap:)];
self.tapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1;
self.tapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
self.view.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
self.container.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:self.tapGestureRecognizer];
}
Any help will be appreciated.
If you want to add UIGestureRecognizer to your subview, you should do it like that:
_container = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 50, 280, 300)];
[self.view addSubview:_container];
_container.backgroundColor = [UIColor redColor];
_container.opaque = YES;
_container.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
self.tapGestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleOneTap:)];
self.tapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1;
self.tapGestureRecognizer.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
self.view.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[_container addGestureRecognizer:self.tapGestureRecognizer];
It looks like that problem is not in UITapGestureRecognizer, but in case how you add Subview from ViewController.
Right way to add subviewcontoller is:
SSubViewController *pvc = [SSubViewController controllerWithSubViewID:0];
[self.view addSubview:pvc.view];
[self addChildViewController:pvc];
Do it in your ViewController and it should solve your problem
I am trying to add a tap gesture from a subclassed UIImageView and then control the tap from the View Controller. I am not getting any compiling errors but "addSubview" is not displaying any image. How can make the UIImageView to be displayed?
If I try to control the tap and pan gestures from the subclassed UIImageVIew I have no problems but I would like to control these functions from the View Controller
Relevant code looks like this.
UIImageView subclass
- (id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder
{
self = [super initWithCoder:aDecoder];
if (self)
{
//self.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
previewController = [[PreviewController alloc]init];
[previewController self];
[self addSubview:character];
// Tap Initialization code
UITapGestureRecognizer *tap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:(PreviewController *)self.previewController action:#selector(addCharacter:)];
[self addGestureRecognizer:tap];
self.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
}
return self;
}
View Controller
- (void)addCharacter:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)t
{
NSLog(#"add character");
imageNSArray = [NSMutableArray array];
uiImg = [UIImage imageNamed:#"homer.png"];
CGPoint loc = [t locationInView:self.view];
character = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:uiImg];
character.center = loc;
[imageNSArray addObject:character];
//Locate the imageNSArray on frameImageView area only.
[self.view addSubview:character];
UIPanGestureRecognizer *pan = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(panCharacter:)];
[self.character addGestureRecognizer:pan];
character.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
}
put a view behind your subclassed imageView. Apply the gestureRecognition to the new View.
You can control your tap gesture from new view. Let me know if i am not clear, or if more info needed.
I think what you want is.. .you want to show a image when user taps on screen.
Do following steps:
1. drag & drop a tap gesture recognizer on default view of your view controller.
2. connect (ctrl +) gestureRecognizer with ViewController.m
Take a look at this code. (Just modified your code)
- (IBAction)onTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender {
NSLog(#"add character");
UIImage * uiImg = [UIImage imageNamed:#"sel.png"];
CGPoint loc = [sender locationInView:self.view];
UIImageView * character = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:uiImg];
character.center = loc;
[self.view addSubview:character];
}
Let me know if this is not what you want…
Edit
better go for this code… No need to do above steps.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
UITapGestureRecognizer *tap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(onTap:)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tap];
self.view.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
}
- (void)onTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender
{
NSLog(#"add character");
UIImage * uiImg = [UIImage imageNamed:#"sel.png"];
CGPoint loc = [sender locationInView:self.view];
UIImageView * character = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:uiImg];
character.center = loc;
[self.view addSubview:character];
}
I have a UIScrollView and inside this I have UILabels. I need to detect touch events for the UILabels. At the moment, it is detecting the touch inside the second label only. It ignores the first.
I have the code -
Creating the UIScrollView
backGroundView = [[UIScrollView alloc] init];
backGroundView.frame= self.view.frame;
backGroundView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[backGroundView setScrollEnabled:YES];
backGroundView.showsVerticalScrollIndicator = YES;
backGroundView.contentSize = CGSizeMake(self.view.frame.size.width, self.view.frame.size.height);
backGroundView.delegate = self;
[self.view addSubview:backGroundView];
Creating the UILabel
UILabel *OneDay = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(15, stockChart.bounds.origin.y + stockChart.bounds.size.height + 35, 40, 30)];
OneDay.text = #"1d";
OneDay.tag = 1;
OneDay.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
OneDay.layer.borderColor = [UIColor grayColor].CGColor;
OneDay.layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
OneDay.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
[OneDay addGestureRecognizer:detectTimeFrameChange];
[backGroundView addSubview:OneDay];
UILabel *FiveDay = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(45, stockChart.bounds.origin.y + stockChart.bounds.size.height + 35, 40, 30)];
FiveDay.text = #"5d";
FiveDay.tag = 2;
FiveDay.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
FiveDay.layer.borderColor = [UIColor grayColor].CGColor;
FiveDay.layer.borderWidth = 1.0f;
FiveDay.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
[FiveDay addGestureRecognizer:detectTimeFrameChange];
[backGroundView addSubview:FiveDay];
Creating the gesturerecognizer
UITapGestureRecognizer *detectTimeFrameChange = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(timeFrameLabelTapped:)];
detectTimeFrameChange.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
[backGroundView addGestureRecognizer:detectTimeFrameChange];
Handling gesture
-(void)timeFrameLabelTapped:(UITapGestureRecognizer*)recognizer{
if (recognizer.view.tag == 1) {
NSLog(#"One pressed");
}
else if (recognizer.view.tag == 2){
NSLog(#"2 pressed");
}
}
You can use this :
UITapGestureRecognizer *labelTap=[[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(labelTapped)];
labelTap.numberOfTapsRequired=1;
[yourLabel addGestureRecognizer:labelTap];
handle the touch tap event inside labelTapped method:
-(void)labelTapped
{
//your code to handle tap
}
Touch events are not detected on UIScrollview for getting your requirement add tap gestures to your label.
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(singleTapGestureCaptured)];
[OneDay addGestureRecognizer:singleTap];
-(void)singleTapGestureCaptured{
NSLog(#"touch detected");
}
You can find using tapgesturerecogniser like that...
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleFingerTap =
[[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleSingleTap:)];
[self.scrollview addGestureRecognizer:singleFingerTap];
//The event handling method
- (void)handleSingleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)recognizer
{
if(recognizer.view.tag == 1){}
//Do stuff here...
}
Where have you written the touchesBegan?
If you want to detect the touches in the label you'll have to create a subclass of label and write your touchesBegan there to detect the touch events
The problem here is that you are trying to use the same gesture recognizer for multiple views. A gesture recognizer can only be attached to a single view at once. You are only receiving events from the last view, because that is the view the recognizer is currently attached to. To fix the issue, simply create a gesture recognizer for each view you want to detect touches in.
I have created a UIViewController, which contains a UIView object.
I want the UIView object response to a single tap by 1 finger, and also pinch by 2 fingers.
I have clicked the "User Interaction Enabled" and the "Multiple touch" options in the xib.
I create both UITapGestureRecognizer, and UIPinchGestureRecognizer inside the UIView function initWithFrame:, as it is the only entry point for the UIView object. But the object doesn't response to the UIGestureRecognizer objects. Why? Or, where is the best place to put the UIGestureRecognizer objects?
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
// Initialization code
// single tap
UITapGestureRecognizer* singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSingleTap:)];
singleTap.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
singleTap.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1;
[self addGestureRecognizer: singleTap];
// 2 fingers pinch
UIPinchGestureRecognizer* doubleMove = [[UIPinchGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleDoubleMove:)];
[self addGestureRecognizer: doubleMove];
}
return self;
}
Your problem is that when you instantiate your custom view subclass in IB, initWithCoder: is called. If you had done it programmatically using initWithFrame: it would have worked properly.
Two ways you can fix this,
Move the gestures setup to a different method and call them in both initWithFrame: and initWithCoder:. I would recommend doing this if you intend to reuse this component and expose some kind of callbacks on gestures.
If you want to implement this once and have a lot of interacting with the controller element, add them in viewDidLoad.
I tried your code and it works for me.
Where are you setting the view? Maybe it has any other view in front, or its superview has userInteractionEnabled disabled.
I created a UIView subclass and added this code:
-(void) handleSingleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gr {
NSLog(#"handleSingleTap");
}
-(void) handleDoubleMove:(UIPinchGestureRecognizer *)gr {
NSLog(#"handleDoubleMove");
}
- (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
self = [super initWithFrame:frame];
if (self) {
// Initialization code
// single tap
UITapGestureRecognizer* singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSingleTap:)];
singleTap.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
singleTap.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1;
[self addGestureRecognizer: singleTap];
// 2 fingers pinch
UIPinchGestureRecognizer* doubleMove = [[UIPinchGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleDoubleMove:)];
[self addGestureRecognizer: doubleMove];
}
return self;
}
Then, in my controller:
-(void) viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
MyView * myView = [[MyView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 100, 100)];
myView.backgroundColor = [UIColor greenColor];
[self.view addSubview:myView];
[myView release];
}
And it works.
i think if you are working with .xib, initialization can also be done in
-(void)awakeFormNib;
Adding the GestureRecognizers is typically done in the viewDidLoad method of the UIViewController.
