I am doing the View resize,move and rotate on single touch.
I am trying to find the touch moved direction like,
IF touch moved direction is Horizontal or Vertical then MOve the view.
If touch moved direction is diagonal then resize.
And if touch moved like rotate gesture then rotate the View.
I am able to identify the Horizontal or Vertical direction.
Please suggest me how i can identify the diagonal and rotation.
I guess for rotation, you can simply use this mehod -(void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event.
And for diagonal, you can compare coordinates of both the points.
For diagonal, you can take help from this post also.
Try This:
TDResizerView
both view rotation and move is available in this
in touch move function, you can identify the direction of move finger like this.
- (void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
[super touchesMoved:touches withEvent:event];
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint current=[touch locationInView:self];
CGPoint last=[touch previousLocationInView:self];
if(current.x>last.x){
NSLog(#">>>>rigth");
}else{
NSLog(#">>>>left");
}
if(current.y>last.y){
NSLog(#">>>>up");
}else{
NSLog(#">>>>down");
}
}

I have to do some "snap to grid" behaviour,
I have a dragging image "sprite", but I need to "snap" this sprite to a certain button if touches go on top of that button,
so how can i know if touchesEnded is on top of a certain button,
here my code, but i dont know when touches where ended on top of butotn
- (void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touched = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touched locationInView:touched.view];
CGRect recta = touched.view.frame;
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(recta, self.button_1.frame)) {
DLog(#"intersected");
}
}
So this is not happening,
can it be done?
or do i have to check the X and Y position of finishing touch against the button frame X and Y position by my self?
cheers
touched.view is the view on which the touch started. You want to find out if the location where the touch ended is on top of a specific button. You can do this by checking if the location of the touch relative to the button is within the button's bounds.
- (void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touched = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint locationRelative = [touched locationInView:self.button_1];
if (CGRectContainsPoint(self.button_1.bounds, locationRelative)) {
DLog(#"on top of button_1");
}
}
You can use CGRectIntersectsRect, which returns YES, if the two rectangles your pass to it intersect.
I use the following code to move an UIImageView
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
paddle.center = CGPointMake(location.x, paddle.center.y);
}
- (void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
[self touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];
}
It works great, moving from left to right. But i can't figure out how to avoid moving over the screen, i meant to move it but don't intersect right and left edges of my screen. let's say 10 pixels from left and 10 from right.
First of all, you are the one saying this:
paddle.center = CGPointMake(location.x, paddle.center.y);
So where paddle is, is entirely up to you. If you don't want it at a certain x value, don't set it to that x value.
Second, never never call touchesBegan from within touchesMoved.
Third, you'd be much happier and safer using a UIPanGestureRecognizer. Situations like this are exactly what it's for.
Can't seem to find an answer to this one anywhere.
My game starts when the user touches the screen, there is a path that the finger must stay within, if it touches/intersects the edges then I want it to run the method [self gameover].
The edge will be a UIImageView.
Thanks everyone.
I hope you have overridden the touches moved event. check either the user touch intersects your image view like below.
-(void) touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint point =[touch locationInView:self.view];
if (CGRectContainsPoint(self.imageView.frame, point))
{
//Intersects
[self gameOver];
}
}
I want to shift the position of some UILabels when the user swipes the screen--specifically, move them the same distance the user swiped their finger.
How would I go about detecting and implementing this?
Thanks
Override touchesBegan:withEvent and touchesMoved:withEvent:. Keep track of the starting location in touchesBegan:withEvent. If repeated calls to touchesDragged (it is called while the drag is happening) show that you are moving fast enough for the action to be a swipe versus just a drag, use the difference between the starting location and the current touch location to animate changing the UILabels.
You can do that by using following methods for UIView.
In touchesBegan you should store the position where the user first touches the screen. So you can identify the left or right swipe when touches ends.
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
self.startPoint = [touch locationInView:self];
}
Record the final position on touchesEnded method. By comparing this two positions you can determine the direction of movement.
- (void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint endPosition = [touch locationInView:self];
if (startPoint.x < endPoint.x) {
// Right swipe
} else {
// Left swipe
}
}
I hope this helps.
Is there anyway to detect which pixels you are touching while keeping your hand/finger on the screen (iphone/ipad)? Essentially drawing a shape of my hand (not as detailed like a fingerprint).
Thanks.
What you want to achieve is sadly not possible. The current devices can only detect up to 11 touches as points (more info in this post). There is no way to get the real touch area or the true touched pixels.
If you are looking for the coordinate point of touch use following code.
- (void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint currentTouchPosition = [touch locationInView:self.view];
NSLog(#"%f,%f",currentTouchPosition.x,currentTouchPosition.y);
}
