UITableViewCell is accepting only longpress - ios

Facing trouble with UITableViewCell.I tried to get the data of selected UITableViewCell. Initially it is working good but after the UITapGestureRecognizer its making this trouble. The table i've used is assigned to the one subview even few buttons are not taking the action at first click. I am facing this trouble exactly after adding the UITapGestureRecognizer.
tapRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(didTapAnywhere:)];
[tapRecognizer setNumberOfTapsRequired:1];
[tapRecognizer setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapRecognizer];
[self.scrolling addGestureRecognizer:tapRecognizer];
[self.notesView addGestureRecognizer:tapRecognizer];
-(void)didTapAnywhere: (UITapGestureRecognizer*) recognizer {
[ageview removeFromSuperview];
[contiView removeFromSuperview];
[CountryTableview removeFromSuperview];
[notesView endEditing:YES];
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}

Your Tap Guesture is cancelling the touch guesture to your cell and your Buttons, make sure that the view to which you are assigning a tap guesture does not overlap the buttons which would result in cancellation of touch events

Did you implement delegate method of UIGestureRecognizerDelegate
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
UIView *view = (UIView *)touch.view;
if([view isKindOfClass:[<YOUR_BUTTON> class]]) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
OR you can give some tag to button like following
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
UIView *view = (UIView *)touch.view;
if(view.tag == 10000) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}

UITapGestureRecognizer blocks touch event for UIButton in subview

I believe I have an issue with UITapGestureRecognizer for dismissing keyboard when tapping in chatroom area preventing or blocking touch to the previewCancelButton. Here below are my relevant codes:
BaseTemplateVC.m
- (void)addDismissKeyboardGesture {
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(dismissKeyboard:)];
tapGesture.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
tapGesture.delegate = self;
self.view.tag = 111;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapGesture];
}
- (void) dismissKeyboard:(id)sender {
UITapGestureRecognizer *gesture = sender;
UIView *view = gesture.view;
NSLog(#"%ld", (long)view.tag);
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}
ChatroomVC.m
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch
{
//Disallow recognition of tap gestures in the segmented control.
if (([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]])) {
NSLog(#"noooooooo");
return NO;
}
return YES;
NSLog(#"yesssssss");
}
InputFunctionView.m
- (void)selectedSticker:(NSString *)stickerURLString {
/* Sticker preview subview */
stickerPreviewView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, -120, FrameWidth, 120)];
stickerPreviewView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor blackColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.5f];
stickerPreviewView.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
[self addSubview:stickerPreviewView];
[self bringSubviewToFront:stickerPreviewView];
/* Initialise previewCancelButton */
self.previewCancelButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];
self.previewCancelButton.frame = CGRectMake(Main_Screen_Width-30, SpaceForItems-120, 20, 20);
[self.previewCancelButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_previewcancel.png"] forState:UIControlStateNormal];
[self.previewCancelButton setBackgroundImage:[UIImage imageNamed:#"btn_previewcancel.png"] forState:UIControlStateHighlighted];
[self.previewCancelButton addTarget:self action:#selector(cancelStickerPreviewButtonPressed:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
[self addSubview: self.previewCancelButton];
}
/* Cancel sticker preview subview */
- (void)cancelStickerPreviewButtonPressed:(id)sender {
NSLog(#"cancel sticker preview");
[self.previewCancelButton removeFromSuperview];
[stickerPreviewView removeFromSuperview];
}
Now the previewCancelButton is correctly on right top corner of stickerPreviewView but unable to receive touch event to it. When I touch the button it shows "111" in the console and when I traced back I found BaseTemplateVC.m that contains addDismissKeyboardGesture method, so I believe this may cause the issue.
Anyone can guide me to some solutions. That'd be really appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Progress: I have modified gestureRecognizer method in ChatroomVC.m so now it can ignore tap gesture on the button but the problem remains action for the button doesn't get fired.
Just take a try with this, i guess it will work.
Use the shouldReceiveTouch delegate method of gesture, and return NO when the touch.view is button class.
So when it finds button It will discard the gesture and take button action.
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
// Block the recognition of tap gestures in the button.
if (([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]])) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
Here is the demo implementation :
I have taken the button on main view of view controller in the story board.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapGestureClicked:)];
tapGesture.delegate = self;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapGesture];
}
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
// Disallow recognition of tap gestures in the segmented control.
if (([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIButton class]])) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
- (IBAction)btnTestClicked:(UIButton *)sender {
NSLog(#"test button click");
}
- (void)tapGestureClicked:(UIGestureRecognizer *)recog
{
NSLog(#"tap gesture clicked");
}
Hope it helps.
Happy coding ...
I found a solution to this by using below code in GestureRecogniser delegate method:
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if ([touch.view isDescendantOfView:IFView.stickerPreviewView]) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
It specifies exactly what subview in this case IFView.stickerPreviewView is to return NO. Also in InputFunctionView, use this instead to add the subview:
[self.superview addSubview:_stickerPreviewView];

Tap Gesture subview touch detect

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;
}
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");
}
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];
}
}

UITableView and UIView gesture conflict

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
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.
Try implementing the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol's gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:
This should call both your didSelectRow and GestureRecognizer
https://developer.apple.com/library/prerelease/ios/documentation/UIKit/Reference/UIGestureRecognizerDelegate_Protocol/index.html#//apple_ref/occ/intfm/UIGestureRecognizerDelegate/gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:
Please try to use like this
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch
{
if ([touch.view == _moreTable]) {
return NO;
}
return YES;
}
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
}

iOS6 bug in UITapGestureRecognizer gestureRecognizer:shouldReceiveTouch:?

The following code in my view controller results in an EXC_BAD_ACCESS at the touch.view call:
- (BOOL)handleSingleTap:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)recognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if ([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIControl class]]) { // <<<< EXC_BAD_ACCESS HERE
// we touched a button, slider, or other UIControl
return NO; // ignore the touch
}
[self.view endEditing:YES]; // dismiss the keyboard
return YES; // handle the touch
}
touch appears to be a zombie. Specifically, touch is set to an address, and the debugger thinks that's a UITouch pointer, but it doesn't have any properties:
This did not happen in iOS 4.x. So iOS 6 bug or my fault?
The gesture recognizer is set up as follows (in the ViewController):
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSingleTap:shouldReceiveTouch:)];
[tapRecognizer setDelegate:self];
[tapRecognizer setNumberOfTapsRequired:1];
[tapRecognizer setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];
tapRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapRecognizer];
[tapRecognizer release];
UPDATE/SOLUTION:
Thanks to Rob for pointing out the user error on my part. Not only that, but I don't actually need the TapRecognizer since I just want to know a touch happened.
Here's the correct code to dismiss the on-screen keyboard with a touch anywhere but in a UIControl:
In the ViewController's viewDidLoad:
UIGestureRecognizer *myRecognizer = [[UIGestureRecognizer alloc] init];
[myRecognizer setDelegate:self];
myRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:myRecognizer];
[myRecognizer release];
And:
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
if ([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIControl class]]) {
// we touched a button, slider, or other UIControl
return NO; // ignore the touch
}
[self.view endEditing:YES]; // dismiss the keyboard
return YES; // handle the touch
}
You're using a method, handleSingleTap:shouldReceiveTouch:, whose signature does not conform to the permissible signatures. See the Overview section of UIGestureRecognizer Class Reference. It should only have the one parameter, the gesture recognizer.
I think you may be confusing the handler with the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol method gestureRecognizer:shouldReceiveTouch:.

how to know if UITapGestureRecognizer has been add to subview

I adding subviews programmatic. for each subview I'm adding a gesture reconognizer:
UIImageView *imageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:image];
imageView.frame = CGRectMake((position*1024)+200,0,image.size.width,image.size.height);
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleFingerTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self action:#selector(singleFingerTap:)];
singleFingerTap.numberOfTapsRequired = 1;
[imageView addGestureRecognizer:singleFingerTap];
[singleFingerTap release];
but the tap is not responding how can I verify the gesture has been add it to the subview ?
Add this after your code:
NSLog(#"imageView.gestureRecognizers: %#", [imageView.gestureRecognizers description]);
If you have properly added gestureRecognizers it will print the description of each to the console. If not, it will show (NULL) or an empty array in the console.
You can also set the gesture recognizer delegate:
[singleFingerTap setDelegate:self];
Then add the delegate method and set a break point to make sure it is getting called:
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizerShouldBegin:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer {
NSLog(#"gestureRecognizerShouldBegin: called");
return YES;
}
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch {
NSLog(#"shouldReceiveTouch: called");
return YES;
}
