I've got splite-view application and of course there is a popover controller in the vertical DetailView, how can I hide with double-tap? thanks
You have to add a doubleTap gesture recognizer and call dismissPopoverAnimated:
First declare a gesture recognizer and configure it to your view:
UITapGestureRecognizer * doubleTapGesture = [[UIGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(doubleTapCallback:)];
doubleTapGesture.numberOfTapsRequired = 2;
[yourView addGestureRecognizer:doubleTapGesture];
[doubleTapGesture release];
Then implement the callback:
- (IBAction) doubleTapCallback: (UITapGestureRecognizer *) sender
{
[yourPopOverController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES]
}

I'm using UILongPressGestureRecognizer class to handle if one item is being selected.
The logic is as follows: User press during 1 second an item (UIView subclass). Once the gesture is detected, the item is highlighted and moveable.
The user must move this item across the screen without stop touching it.
The problem I'm facing is the gesture recognized shadows touchesBegan/Move/Ended necessary for the item class to arrange the movement.
I tried to remove the gesture recognized once is detected and the item selected. But still sending messages to the handle of gesture instead of call touches methods.
Anyone knows any way to stop "listening" the gesture recognizer without leave the finger of the screen?
Thanks.
Here the code:
-(void)addGestures
{
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPress = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleLongPress:)];
longPress.minimumPressDuration = iItemLongPressTime;
[self addGestureRecognizer:longPress];
[longPress release];
}
- (void)handleLongPress:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer*)sender {
if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded) {
NSLog(#"Long press Ended");
}
else {
if (self.isSelected) return;
if ([delegate respondsToSelector:#selector(singleTouch:)])
[delegate singleTouch:self];
[self removeGestureRecognizer:[self.gestureRecognizers objectAtIndex:0]];
NSLog(#"Long press detected.");
}
}
As you can see in the else branch the delegate calls enables all procedures to mark this item as selected, and just after remove the recognizers.
What I'm missing?
--EDIT--
Done! This works:
#pragma mark Gesture Functions
-(void)addGestures
{
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPress = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleLongPress:)];
longPress.minimumPressDuration = iItemLongPressTime;
[self addGestureRecognizer:longPress];
[longPress release];
}
- (void)handleLongPress:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer*)sender {
if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded) {
NSLog(#"Long press Ended");
}
else {
NSLog(#"Long press detected.");
if (self.isSelected) return;
if ([delegate respondsToSelector:#selector(singleTouch:)])
[delegate singleTouch:self];
[sender removeTarget:self action:#selector(handleLongPress:)];
sender.enabled = NO;
[self removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
}
}
Regards!
Does the custom UIView class have its own touch handling code? If not, a simple solution is to set the allowableMovement property of the UILongPressGestureRecognizer to CGFLOAT_MAX, or some big number, and use the gesture update callbacks to drag your custom view around. You can get the displacement using the - (CGPoint)locationInView:(UIView *)view method on the superview, and compare its position to when the recognizer began.
There are two solutions in my mind.
For animating uiview, please wrote a new class which is inherited from the UIView class and implement the touch delegates instead of writing the Gustures to handle animation(if the touch delegates are not triggering in the current class).
2.I have successfully removed the UILongPressGestureRecognizer after triggered it once.
Please refer the below code .ask me if you have any queries
Steps I have Done
I have added a UIView as "myView" to my main-view when main-view loads.
I have given the Tag to the myView (you can give 1,2,3…etc) to differentiate the tapped view from the main-view subviews.
Assigned the UILongPressGestureRecognizer gesture to myView and assigned target as "moveMe" method.
When user Pressed the myView long, the "moveMe" method will trigger.
Then I iterated the mainView Subviews with the condition Tag == 1
I have removed the UILongPressGestureRecognizer from the subview.As we can know that Tagged 1 main-view subView is myView.
So the NSLog(#"gesture removed"); and NSLog(#"moveMe"); will log in console only at one time.
The NSLog(#"touchesBegan"); will trigger first instead of triggering the "moveMe" method.
Then NSLog(#"touchesBegan"); will trigger always after removed the gesture . "moveMe" method will not trigger ever.
Code
- (void)viewDidLoad {
//Adding to UIView to main view when application is loading.
UIView *myView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 20, 80, 80)];
myView.backgroundColor = [UIColor viewFlipsideBackgroundColor];
myView.tag = 1; //adding a tag to identify it.
//Adding Long Press Gesture to the UIView.
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *myGesture = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(moveMe:)];
[myView addGestureRecognizer:myGesture];
[myGesture release];
myGesture = nil;
[self.view addSubview:myView];
[myView release];
myView = nil;
[super viewDidLoad];
}
//Method to trigger when user pressed long on the added UIView.
-(void)moveMe:(id)sender
{
for (UIView *subViews in [self.view subviews])
{
if (subViews.tag == 1) {
[subViews removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
NSLog(#"gesture removed");
}
}
NSLog(#"moveMe");
}
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
NSLog(#"touchesBegan");
}
or please refer Disable gesture recognizer iOS
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPressOnUndoGesture = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleLongPressOnUndoGesture:)];
[longPressOnUndoGesture setMinimumPressDuration:2.0];
[longPressOnUndoGesture release];
i have the above code to deasctivate the autoscroll timer in my applicationthis is the function for this.
-(void) handleLongPressOnUndoGesture:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer*)recognizer {
[autoscrollTimer invalidate];
}
but when i taptohold for 2 seconds it wont stop the timer.is there any error in my code for gesture.
Thanks in advance.
You're not using the gesture recognizer, as you release it immediately as you created it. You have to attach it to a view like this:
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPressOnUndoGesture = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(handleLongPressOnUndoGesture:)];
[longPressOnUndoGesture setMinimumPressDuration:2.0];
// TRICK HERE
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:longPressUndoGesture];
[longPressOnUndoGesture release];
It seems to me that you are not adding the gesture recognizer to the view it should work upon:
[self.view addGestureRecognizer: longPressOnUndoGesture];
(if self is your controller).
I want to be able to dismiss the iPhone keyboard when the user taps anywhere outside of the keyboard. How can I go about doing this? I know I need to dismiss the responder, but need to know how to implement it when a user taps out of the keyboard space.
You'll need to add an UITapGestureRecogniser and assign it to the view, and then call resign first responder on the textfield on it's selector.
The code:
In viewDidLoad
UITapGestureRecognizer *tap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(dismissKeyboard)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tap];
In dismissKeyboard:
-(void)dismissKeyboard {
[aTextField resignFirstResponder];
}
(Where aTextField is the textfield that is responsible for the keyboard)
OPTION 2
If you can't afford to add a gestureRecognizer then you can try this
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch * touch = [touches anyObject];
if(touch.phase == UITouchPhaseBegan) {
[aTextField resignFirstResponder];
}
}
The simplest solution I have used is this:
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}
The endEditing command can be used on any view that contains your textfield as a subview. The other advantage of this method is that you don't need to know which textfield triggered the keyboard. So even if you have a multiple textfields, just add this line to the superview.
Based on the Apple documentation, I think this method exists specifically to solve this problem.
Add a tapGesture Recognizer but make sure cancelsTouchesInView = NO
UITapGestureRecognizer* tapGesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]initWithTarget:self action:#selector(closeTextInput)];
tapGesture.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tapGesture];
[tapGesture release];
You'll need to add an UITapGestureRecogniser and assign it to the view, and then call resign first responder on the textfield on it's selector.
The code:
In viewDidLoad
UITapGestureRecognizer *tap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self
action:#selector(dismissKeyboard)];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:tap];
In dismissKeyboard:
-(void)dismissKeyboard {
[self.view endEditing:true];
}
You need to add a transparent UIVIew as a subview below the keyboard and handle touches there, to dismiss the keyboard. Below code is for your reference.
UITapGestureRecognizer* gesture = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(overlayTouched:)];
gesture.delegate = self;
[(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gesture setNumberOfTouchesRequired:1];
UIView* trans = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:[[delegate view] bounds]];
[trans setOpaque:NO];
[trans setAutoresizingMask:UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleLeftMargin | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleRightMargin];
[trans setAlpha:0.3];
[trans setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
trans.multipleTouchEnabled = YES;
[trans addGestureRecognizer:gesture];
[trans setBackgroundColor:[UIColor blackColor]];
[trans setTag:BLACK_SCREEN_VIEW];
This is a Swift 4 solution:
let tap = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.dismissKeyboard))
self.view.addGestureRecognizer(tap)
And the dismissKeyboard
#objc func dismissKeyboard() {
self.view.endEditing(true)
}
Other way to do is simple:
Makes your UIView as UIControl in custom class in the interface builder, then you can attach an IBAction method in Touch up inside event of your UIView : UIControl, then you put [yourTextField resignFirstResponder] inside the IBAction method, like this:
- (IBAction) hideKeyboard: (id) sender
{
// If you have more than one textfield to dismiss, of course only can be active 1, but here you can't know who is it, because sender will be the UIView : UIControl
[alias resignFirstResponder];
[password resignFirstResponder];
}
Then, you have other option and it's to put in your textfield the return key of the keyboard as Done (It can be any of those you want, but Done it's good for this, because return means to do an action with the form) in the interface builder, so you can press Done and hide the keyboard, but in that case you have to attach the previous IBAction method to the Did end on exit event.
And in this way the keyboard will hide touching outside or touching Done from the keyboard.
If you want to improve the code, if only will hide the keyboard touching Done from the keyboard the method should be:
// Attach all textFields here on Did end on exit event, will not work if touch outside the keyboard
- (IBAction) hideKeyboard: (id) sender
{
[sender resignFirstResponder];
}
If you are on a UITableViewController or have a UITableView that the user will be interacting with, in your ViewDidLoad you can simply do:
tableView.KeyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissMode.OnDrag;
Note: this is Xamarin.iOS syntax.
If you don't want to add a gesture recognizer you can also use the touchesBegin method
Code in Swift 4
override func touchesBegan(_ touches: Set<UITouch>, with event: UIEvent?) {
view.endEditing(true)
}
You don't even need a gesture recogniser. Views can detect touches without gesture recognisers. All you need is literally this in your view controller....
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
[self.view endEditing:YES];
}
Hello I have an opengl view and on that I have a tab bar. I'm using a tap recognizer to tap different 3d objects on screen. In the tab bar I have a button but it doesn't work because the tap recognizer catches these taps too. How do I stop this? I've already tried this:
- (BOOL) gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldReceiveTouch:(UITouch *)touch
{
if ([touch.view isKindOfClass:[UIBarButtonItem class]]) return FALSE;
return TRUE;
}
I think I am somehow comparing wrong classess because when I debug it returns TRUE always.
Or you can just do [singleTap setCancelsTouchesInView:NO]. Example:
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTap = [
[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget: self
action: #selector(yourSelector:)
];
[singleTap setCancelsTouchesInView:NO];
[[self view] addGestureRecognizer: singleTap];
if ([touch.view.superview isKindOfClass:[UIToolbar class]]) return FALSE;
This is how I got it to work. The superview is a UIToolbar, probably UIBarButtonIttem is a view after all.
In my app, I wrote these lines of code :
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapper = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(tapped:)];
[mybutton1 addGestureRecognizer:tapper];
[mybutton2 addGestureRecognizer:tapper];
[mybutton3 addGestureRecognizer:tapper];
[tapper release];
}
-(void)tapped:(UIGestureRecognizer *)sender{
NSLog(#"I'am in tapped");
}
but nothing happened. why ? and if I need to get the button's currentTitle inside tapped, can I ?
Thanks
You're missing the recognizer delegate. Implement that. You should also add the UIGestureRecognizerDelegate protocol to your header file and make recognizer.delegate = self.
re: getting the title - you can get the title. in your tap event handler you can extract that information from the sender object. i'll post some code later...
You don't need to use a gesture recogniser just to detect when a button is pressed. A button knows when it's being pressed!
Try:
{
// Blah...
[myButton addTarget:self action:#selector(tapped:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
// Other stuff
}
-(void)tapped:(id)sender {
NSLog (#"I'm in tapped!");
}
A gesture recognizer can only be attached to one view at a time. Handling single taps on buttons can just as easily be done using IBAction. You can create one IBAction and connect all three buttons to it.
- (IBAction)tapped:(id)sender {
UIButton *button = (UIButton *)sender;
NSLog(#"%#", button.titleLabel.text);
}
