gesture recognizers on both UITableViewcell and UITableVIew - ios

Question

I have a cutsom UITableViewCell implemention.
I have registered this subclass of UITableViewCell for a UIPanGestureRecognizer which i use to swiping the cells to the right or left.
// in the UITableViewCell subclass :
UIGestureRecognizer* recognizer =
[[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:
self
action:#selector(handlePan:)];
recognizer.delegate = self;
[self addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
recognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
Now I want to to present a view controller when the user does a two finger swipe "up"
on the screen.
So, I added a UISwipeGestureRecognizer to the tableview.
// code in the view controller containing the tableview reference.
UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipe = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleViewsSwipe:)];
[swipe setDirection:UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionUp];
[swipe setDelaysTouchesBegan:NO];
[[self tableView ]addGestureRecognizer:swipe];
swipe.cancelsTouchesInView= YES;
[swipe setNumberOfTouchesRequired:2];
swipe.delegate = self;
self.tableView.multipleTouchEnabled = YES;
But when I do a two finger swipe on the screen, the pan gesture gets triggered .
How can I solve this ?

As sooper's says, setting the maximumNumberOfTouches = 1 will probably work.
For others trying to deal with 2 gestureRecognizers at the same time that are both 1 touch gestures I found that making sure to set this delegate to yes
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer{
return YES;
}
and then in the gesture recognizer action you can check for a certain translation or whatever you need and cancel one of the gesture recognizers.
Such as:
- (void)panSwipeRecognizer:(UIPanGestureRecognizer*)panRecognizer
{
CGPoint translation = [panRecognizer translationInView:self.superview];
if(panRecognizer.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan)
{
if(fabsf(translation.x) < fabsf(translation.y))
{
//deactivate horizontal gesture recognizer
panRecognizer.enabled = NO;
panRecognizer.enabled = YES;
}
else //if(fabsf(translation.x) > fabsf(translation.y))
{
//deactivate vertical gesture recognizer
otherGestureRecognizer.enabled = NO;
otherGestureRecognizer.enabled = YES;
}
}
//other statements like stateChanged and stateBegan
}
