I am using two swipe gestures inside scrollview so i could be able to change photos and zoom in , swiping left works normally and smoothly while swiping right does not work properly , after many swipes it could be triggered once maybe,i am using this code:
//image zoom
self.scrollView.minimumZoomScale=1.0;
self.scrollView.maximumZoomScale=6.0;
self.scrollView.contentSize=CGSizeMake(1280, 960);
self.scrollView.delegate=self;
self.scrollView.clipsToBounds = YES;
self.scrollView.scrollEnabled = false;
UISwipeGestureRecognizer * swipeleft=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeleft:)];
swipeleft.direction=UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:swipeleft];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer * swiperight=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swiperight:)];
swiperight.direction=UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:swiperight];
And these two methods to handle the swipe
-(void)swipeleft:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer*)gestureRecognizer
{
NSLog(#"LEFTtttttt");
if(index > 0 && index < _photoCount){
index = index - 1;
[self loadImage];
}
}
-(void)swiperight:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer*)gestureRecognizer
{
NSLog(#"RIGHTttttt");
if(index >= 0 && index < _photoCount - 1){
index = index + 1;
[self loadImage];
}
}
I searched for a solution of course and tried different codes but it did not work , i added
[self.scrollView.panGestureRecognizer requireGestureRecognizerToFail:swiperight];
And this one too,
-(void)scrollViewDidZoom:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
if (scrollView.zoomScale!=1.0) {
// Zooming, enable scrolling
scrollView.scrollEnabled = TRUE;
} else {
// Not zoomed, disable scrolling so gestures get used instead
scrollView.scrollEnabled = FALSE;
}
}
The only difference is when i added the latter code swiping right worked normally when i zoomed in when it should work in the opposite case.
Did i miss something in my code?
Thanks.
Please add swipe gesture to the scrollView not on self.view to make it works good when user swipe on scrollView. like below
UISwipeGestureRecognizer * swipeleft=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeleft:)];
swipeleft.direction=UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft;
[self.scrollView addGestureRecognizer:swipeleft];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer * swiperight=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swiperight:)];
swiperight.direction=UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight;
[self.scrollView addGestureRecognizer:swiperight];
this might be happening because scroll view is rendering above self.view.
I am working on a food app in which each tableViewCell shows different recipes names. When a user taps on a recipe (in a cell), a detailed view will be opened.
I am now trying to implement a swipe gesture for UIImageView which shows different images on swipe. How do I implement that?
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeImage:)];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeImage:)];
// Setting the swipe direction.
[swipeLeft setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
[swipeRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
// Adding the swipe gesture on image view
[Allimages addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeft];
[Allimages addGestureRecognizer:swipeRight];
- (void)handleSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)swipe{
NSInteger indexPath;
if (indexPath==0) {
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft) {
arrayimage=[[NSMutableArray alloc]initWithObjects:# "BBQ Chicken Pizza.jpg",# "roastchickensteaks.jpg", nil];
swipee = (swipee > 0)? ([arrayimage count]-1):
swipee%[arrayimage count];
Allimages.image=[UIImage imageNamed: [arrayimageobjectAtIndex:indexPath]];
}}

Add this
[imageview setUserInteractionEnabled=YES];
create object for swipegesture recognizer class
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *leftSwipe=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(onSwipe)];
[leftSwipe setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
Add swipeGesture to imageView
[imageView addGestureRecognizer:leftSwipe];
-(void)onSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer)swipe{
if(swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)
{
NSLog(#"leftSwipe");
}
}
if you want more information: just check
Gesture recognizer (swipe) on UIImageView
In your detail View Make UserInteractionEnabledt to YES of your imageview.
[imageView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
Adding a Swipe Gesture Events
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
// Setting the swipe direction.
[swipeLeft setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
[swipeRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
// Adding the swipe gesture on image view
[imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeft];
[imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeRight];
And Handle Swipe Gesture Events using below code.
- (void)handleSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)swipe {
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft) {
NSLog(#"Left Swipe");
}
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight) {
NSLog(#"Right Swipe");
}
}

I am trying to add a gesture recognizer using the following code.
However, the gesture is not getting recognized. Is there something else I have to do in order to make the view controller a delegate of the view--or something to that effect?
I have implemented the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol in the .h file
//in view did load
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *rightRecognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(rightSwipeHandle:)];
rightRecognizer.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight;
[rightRecognizer setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];
[_myImage addGestureRecognizer:rightRecognizer];
//........towards left Gesture recogniser for swiping.....//
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *leftRecognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(leftSwipeHandle:)];
leftRecognizer.direction = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft;
[leftRecognizer setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];
[_myImage addGestureRecognizer:leftRecognizer];
//new methods
- (void)rightSwipeHandle:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer*)gestureRecognizer
{
//Do moving
NSLog(#"Right Swipe performed");//not appearing
}
- (void)leftSwipeHandle:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer*)gestureRecognizer
{
// do moving
NSLog(#"Left Swipe performed");//not appearing
}
1st you need
_myImage.userInteractionEnabled=YES;
then
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
// Setting the swipe direction.
[swipeLeft setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
[swipeRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
// Adding the swipe gesture on image view
[_myImage addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeft];
[_myImage addGestureRecognizer:swipeRight];
then call method like
- (void)handleSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)swipe {
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)
{
NSLog(#"Left Swipe");
}
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight)
{
NSLog(#"Right Swipe");
}
}
i hope this will work..
You have to enable user interaction of "_myImage" before adding gestures to image view as:
_myImage.userInteractionEnabled = YES;
I have an ImageView, and Images URL in array. I want to download and show these images on UIImageView, but issue this that I am facing Two Gestures on that View, so inner Gesture which is on only ImageView is not looking to work.
My code is like below
[self.imageView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipe:)];
// Setting the swipe direction.
[swipeLeft setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
[swipeRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
// Adding the swipe gesture on image view
[self.imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeft];
[self.imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeRight];
- (void)handleSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)swipe {
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft) {
NSLog(#"Left Swipe");
}
if (swipe.direction == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight) {
NSLog(#"Right Swipe");
}
}
The method handleSwipe is not called and also when I move it opens side menu, as there is Gesture applied same as facebook side menu opens in its iOS app.
How can I change images in ImageView when whole parent view is also using Gesture.
Thanks
try this. It solves both ypur problems
[self.imageView setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleLeftSwipe)];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleRightSwipe)];
// Setting the swipe direction.
[swipeLeft setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft];
[swipeRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
// Adding the swipe gesture on image view
[self.imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeft];
[self.imageView addGestureRecognizer:swipeRight];
- (void)handleLeftSwipe
{
NSLog(#"Left Swipe");
}
- (void)handleRightSwipe
{
NSLog(#"Left Swipe");
}
I want to add simple swipe gesture recognition to my view based iPhone project. Gestures in all directions (right, down, left, up) should be recognized.
It is stated in the docs for UISwipeGestureRecognizer:
You may specify multiple directions by specifying multiple UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection constants using bitwise-OR operands. The default direction is UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight.
However for me it doesn't work. When all four directions are OR'ed only left and right swipes are recognized.
- (void)viewDidLoad {
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *recognizer;
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
[super viewDidLoad];
}
-(void)handleSwipeFrom:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
NSLog(#"Swipe received.");
}
I fixed this with adding four recognizers to the view but I'm curious to know why didn't it work as advertised in docs?
- (void)viewDidLoad {
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *recognizer;
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
[super viewDidLoad];
}
-(void)handleSwipeFrom:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
NSLog(#"Swipe received.");
}
Seems like there is a bug. You can specify the allowed direction(s) as you did. But when you try to access the actual direction that triggered the swipe in the action selector method you still get the bit mask you originally set (for the allowed directions).
This means that checks for the actual direction will always fail when more than 1 direction is allowed.
You can see it for yourself quite easily when you output the value of 'direction' in the selector method (ie -(void)scrollViewSwiped:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer).
Filed a bug report (#8276386) to Apple.
[Update] I got an answer from Apple saying that the behavior works as was intended.
So for example in a table view you can swipe left or right in a table view cell to trigger 'delete' (this would have directions of the swipe gesture set to left and right)
This means that the original workaround is the way it's supposed to be used. The direction property can only be used to get the gestures recognized correctly, but not in the method performed on a successful recognition to compare for the actual direction that triggered the recognition.
I noticed that left/right and up/down gestures work together in pairs, so you only need to specify two gesture recognizers. And the docs do seem to be wrong.
Well that sucks, I solved the problem by adding 2 gestures like Lars mentioned and that worked perfectly...
1) Left/Right
2) Up/Down
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeLeftRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleGesture:)];
[swipeLeftRight setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft )];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:swipeLeftRight];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipeUpDown = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleGesture:)];
[swipeUpDown setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown )];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:swipeUpDown];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(didSwipe:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(didSwipe:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
Now this is the didSwipe function
- (void) didSwipe:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer{
if([recognizer direction] == UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft){
//Swipe from right to left
//Do your functions here
}else{
//Swipe from left to right
//Do your functions here
}
}
If your using Xcode 4.2 you can add Gesture Recognizers # the storyboard and then link the GUI Gesture Recognizers to IBActions.
You can find the Gesture Recognizers in the Object Library of the Utility Pane (The bottom of the Right pane).
Then its just a matter of Control-dragging to the appropriate action.
If you want it to detect all four directions, you'll need to create four instances, as you did in your work-around.
Here's Why:
The same instance of UISwipeGestureRecognizer that you create is the instance that gets passed to the selector as sender. So if you set it to recognize all four directions, it will return true for sgr.direction == xxx where xxx is any one of the four directions.
Here's an alternative work-around that involves less code (assumes ARC use):
for(int d = UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight; d <= UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown; d = d*2) {
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *sgr = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleSwipeFrom:)];
sgr.direction = d;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:sgr];
}
Swift 2.1
I had to use the following
for var x in [
UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Left,
UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Right,
UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Up,
UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirection.Down
] {
let r = UISwipeGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: "swipe:")
r.direction = x
self.view.addGestureRecognizer(r)
}
Here is a code sample for UISwipeGestureRecognizer usage. Note comments.
- (void)viewDidLoad
{
[super viewDidLoad];
// Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
//add gesture recognizer. The 'direction' property of UISwipeGestureRecognizer only sets the allowable directions. It does not return to the user the direction that was actaully swiped. Must set up separate gesture recognizers to handle the specific directions for which I want an outcome.
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *gestureRight;
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *gestureLeft;
gestureRight = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeRight:)];//direction is set by default.
gestureLeft = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(swipeLeft:)];//need to set direction.
[gestureLeft setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)];
//[gesture setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];//default is 1
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:gestureRight];//this gets things rolling.
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:gestureLeft];//this gets things rolling.
}
swipeRight and swipeLeft are methods that you use to perform specific activities based on left or right swiping. For example:
- (void)swipeRight:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)gesture
{
NSLog(#"Right Swipe received.");//Lets you know this method was called by gesture recognizer.
NSLog(#"Direction is: %i", gesture.direction);//Lets you know the numeric value of the gesture direction for confirmation (1=right).
//only interested in gesture if gesture state == changed or ended (From Paul Hegarty # standford U
if ((gesture.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateChanged) ||
(gesture.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded)) {
//do something for a right swipe gesture.
}
}
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *Updown=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleGestureNext:)];
Updown.delegate=self;
[Updown setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp];
[overLayView addGestureRecognizer:Updown];
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *LeftRight=[[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleGestureNext:)];
LeftRight.delegate=self;
[LeftRight setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft | UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight];
[overLayView addGestureRecognizer:LeftRight];
overLayView.userInteractionEnabled=NO;
-(void)handleGestureNext:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)recognizer
{
NSLog(#"Swipe Recevied");
//Left
//Right
//Top
//Bottom
}
hmm, strange, it works perfect for me, I do exactly same thing
think you should try look at
UIGestureRecognizerDelegate method
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizerShouldBegin:(UISwipeGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer {
// also try to look what's wrong with gesture
NSLog(#"should began gesture %#", gestureRecognizer);
return YES;
}
in logs you must see something like:
should began gesture ; target= <(action=actionForUpDownSwipeGestureRecognizer:, target=)>; direction = up,down,left,right>
use this, it should be the bit operation
gesture.direction & UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp ||
gesture.direction & UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown
This was driving me crazy. I finally figured out a reliable way to have multiple swipeGestureRecognizers.
It appears there is a bug in iOS if the name of your "action" selector is the same across multiple swipeGestureRecognizers. If you just name them differently, e.g. handleLeftSwipeFrom and handleRightSwipeFrom, everything works.
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *recognizer;
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleLeftSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionLeft)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
recognizer = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleRightSwipeFrom:)];
[recognizer setDirection:(UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionRight)];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
[recognizer release];
