Programmatically added subview doesn't interact with other views, but xib-added view worked fine - ios

I have a view called userSlider programmaticaly added in viewDidLoad:
self.userSlider = [[UserSliderView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, -120, 320, 155)];
[self.userSlider setUser:user];
[self.userSlider configureView];
[self.view addSubview:self.userSlider];
And a tableview called gameTableView.
I originally had added the userSlider into the xib as a custom view (because UserSlider has its own xib), and when I implemented these touch methods:
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = (UITouch*)[touches anyObject];
start = [touch locationInView:self.view].y;
}
-(void) touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
if(start < 0)
{
return;
}
UITouch *touch = (UITouch *)[touches anyObject];
CGFloat now = [touch locationInView:self.view].y;
CGFloat diff = now - start;
sliderDirectionIsUp = diff < 0; //sliderDirectionIsUp is a BOOL
if ((self.userSlider.frame.origin.y == 0) && ((now < 120) || (now > 155))) {
return;
}
float newCenterY = self.userSlider.center.y + diff;
if (newCenterY < roundf(self.userSlider.frame.size.height / 2)) {
self.userSlider.center = CGPointMake(self.userSlider.center.x, newCenterY);
CGRect tableViewFrame = self.gameTableView.frame;
tableViewFrame.origin.y += diff;
tableViewFrame.size.height -= diff;
[self.gameTableView setFrame:tableViewFrame];
}
start = now;
}
-(void) touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
CGRect tableViewFrame = self.gameTableView.frame;
if (sliderDirectionIsUp)
{
tableViewFrame.origin.y = 28;
tableViewFrame.size.height = (self.view.frame.size.height - tableViewFrame.origin.y);
//animate userSlider out of visible area
[UIView animateWithDuration:.3 animations:^{
self.userSlider.center = CGPointMake(self.userSlider.center.x, -roundf(self.userSlider.bounds.size.height/2.) + 35);
[self.gameTableView setFrame:tableViewFrame];
}];
}
else if(start >= 0)
{
tableViewFrame.origin.y = (self.userSlider.frame.size.height - 7);
tableViewFrame.size.height = (self.view.frame.size.height - tableViewFrame.origin.y);
//animate userSlider with top to mainviews top
[UIView animateWithDuration:.3 animations:^{
self.userSlider.center = CGPointMake(self.userSlider.center.x, roundf(self.userSlider.bounds.size.height/2.) - 0.5);
[self.gameTableView setFrame:tableViewFrame];
}];
}
}
then both views would move how I wanted them to.
But now when I add it programmatically, suddenly the tableView doesn't change unless I tap inside the area after moving it. It's really weird.
Any ideas?

If your userSlider`s frame is
CGRectMake(0, -120, 320, 155)
I doubt whether your userSlider can receive the sender event .Because if a UIControl`s frame be out of the superView , it may not receive the sender event(the outside part) . You can set the frame
CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 155)
to have a try .
