Odd screen tinting when touching sections of web app on iPad - ipad

I have this odd behavior happening when a user touches any part of our web application. The interface consists of an iframe that has two nested iframes. When any part of the iframe is touched, the entire section tints or dims? The tint/dim goes away when not touching. It is very similar to standard iOS "Copy" behavior, just that there is never a "Copy" option. Does anyone have an idea as to what may be causing this?
I have added during touch image plus a link to a video illustrating the problem.

SwiftUI: Accessibility sound feedback for a draggable element

I am making an application that works essentially like a simple Drag-and-Drop Playground with the command blocks on the left and a droppable area on the right. I want to make it fully compatible with VoiceOver and I'm running into trouble with some of the accessibility aspects since this is my first Swift application.
This is what the playground currently looks like: (App Screenshot)
My goal is to provide the users with audio cues/feedback while they are dragging the elements to help them figure out what part of the screen they are currently at. The ideal functionality would be exactly like what one uses when editing an iOS device's Home screen (the arrangement layout of the apps).
When trying to rearrange apps on the home screen with VoiceOver enabled, you hear a row/column alert when you are dragging an app over an open area. I want a similar type of feedback that says "Droppable Area" when you are over the correct area (see scenario 1).
When trying to rearrange apps on the home screen with VoiceOver enabled, you hear a sound when you tap on an area that has no app icon. (This also happens when you are not editing the layout and simply tap on an open area with no app.) I want that noise to be what you hear when you drag a command over an area that is not droppable (see scenario 2).
Any ideas on how this might be possible or good references to look at?

How to debug Ionic iOS swipe gesture issues

I am dealing with a weird bug on Ionic's iOS native build where I sometimes cannot swipe back or switch tabs once I transition to a new page using router.navigateByURL(...), and trying to debug this issue has been troublesome since I can't "see" how the gestures are handled. Does anyone know where I should be looking in the code for handling transition gestures?
Here's a video demo of the problem: https://streamable.com/hk9c0
In the video, you can see me:
Swiping down to refresh using the ion-refresher element and you can see the page beneath (already entered a bug report for that part: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic/issues/18284 )
Trying to tap the back arrow in the left corner
Attempting to swipe left to right to go back a page (hard to show that one)
Tapping the bottom tabs to transition to new tab, at one point, I tap on a tab that has an ion-fab element which appears in the bottom right because its z-index is higher than the "stuck" page.
Currently the best I've been able to do is by looking at the css classes that are added to the pages, but it's not much use....
Where app-release is the page you can see in the video and app-home is the page underneath the stack. It's my understanding that Ionic uses hammer.jsfor gestures, so I added it as a tag, please correct me if I am wrong. I cannot, for the life of me, recreate this bug consistently, but will often trigger 1 out of 50 tries.
I've been digging through the utils in Ionic Core to see where elements are being added and removed, with no luck.
I created a bug request for this here as well: https://github.com/ionic-team/ionic/issues/18305
Are you using #angular/animations to make the transitions between the pages? I had some issues like yours, as you can see in my question.
Router navigate on Ionic with animation blinking on ios using angular animations
If I am right about the use of #angualar/animations I suggest to use a custom animation of the Ionic itself, and not te angular's. You can see an working example here of its use here:

Since I have less tem 50 rep I cant comment so I had to post this anwser not knowing if it was really your case. Hope it helps.

GUI areas restricted by the iOS

I would like to be able to use the areas that are occupied by the iOS in my app, using javaFX and Gluon. How can this be done?
That means any javaFX controllers functions as expected. Now they are almost impossible for a user to focus. When I have another controller in the middle area of the screen that one works like normal.
On iPhone 6 you can press the top most area and drag down to get access to a menu. The same exact thing with the bottom-most area by pressing then dragging upwards. And I believe that OS related functionality to be the reason.
The touch event probably do not reach the app properly over these areas. I am seeking to be able to have controllers placed here and have them work just as they are in other places.
This was done by adding a VBox layout, with TextField and TextArea to Gluon Layer - and then adding it to Layers of a class extending Gluon View (Called "BasicView").

iOS iPad are there hover like workaround within apps? NOT websites

There seems to be dozens of questions on how to deal with :hover event on the websites when viewed in iPad.
My question is different - I'm building a native iOS game and it would be really good if a user can compare two items side by side. On PC this can easily be done by displaying one item a mouse-over panel when mouse hovers over an inventory item. The main benefit of such panel is that it is easy to show and easy to close on PC.
What are my alternatives for displaying a transient, hover-like interaction panel in a native iOS app?
For iPad (not iPhone) a UIPopover is pretty close to what you want. If you want to support iPhone/iPod as well, there are third party popover libraries for those devices.
However, I'm not sure how this would do for comparing 2 items, since the system only displays 1 popover at a time.
This is really more like a map callout bubble. You could build your own callout bubble sort of interface yourself without a lot of work. When you tap on an item, it would display it's callout, and when you tap on it again, or tap outside all items/callouts, it would hide it. I've done something like that for a custom map system I built for a client and it wasn't that hard.

Adding custom button to MPMoviePlayerController (fullscreen)

I have a MPMoviePlayerController instance in my iOS app, that plays a local file in fullscreen mode. This all works fine, but now I want to add a custom button to the window for changing the playback speed. We support both iPhone and iPad in all orientations.
I know how to set the playback speed from code (using setCurrentPlaybackRate), but I need to let the user do it while watching the video, which means adding some kind of button to the playback screen next to the existing buttons, e.g. next to "play", "pause", or in the top bar.
By looking on StackOverflow I have found various replies for questions similar but not quite the same, some saying it cannot be done in fullscreen, some saying it can be done (but is very complex) by creating some kind of overlay, effectively replacing the entire overlay with a custom one.
Although, I have yet to find any code examples (apart from a few snippets without context), getting-started style tutorial or similar for this, so any pointers to example code would be greatly appreciated.
maybe this Apple example could help you
