I have one UITableView in My View.The name of my UITableView is tblTask.
I am using touchesBegan method to get the x and y coordinate of my view.
-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view];
NSLog(#"point........ %f .. %f",location.x,location.y);
}
But when I begin the touch event from the tbltask. It does not return the location.x and location.y even if tbltask is the subview of the main view.
I tried to disable the scrollview of the table also but nothing happen.
when I set this.
tbltask.userInteractionEnabled=NO;
Then it will give the coordinate but I want the coordinate of view even if tbltask interaction is enabled.
-(void)touchesEnded:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touch ;
touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
if ([touch view] == self.view){
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
NSLog(#"point........ %f .. %f",location.x,location.y);
}
}
I am implementing a draggable UIView in my application. The codes I have worked fine but I would like to set a restricted area the UIView can be moved.
My codes:
-(void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
if( [touch view] == camview)
{
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view;
startX = camview.center.x;
startY= location.y - camview.center.y;
}
}
- (void) touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
if( [touch view] == camview)
{
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view];
location.y =location.y - startY;
location.x = startX;
camview.center = location;
}
}
So how can I set the minimum and maximum y value that the UIView can be dragged?
Thanks!
If you are interested in making sure the view frame doesn't go over or under a certain y value you could do the following,
- (void) touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event{
CGFloat minY, maxY; //The position in your self.view you are interested in
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
if( [touch view] == camview)
{
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:self.view];
location.y = location.y - startY;
location.y = MIN(location.y,maxY); //Always <= maxY
location.y = MAX(location.y,minY); //Always >= minY
location.x = startX;
camview.center = location;
}
}
I have 2 image views namely mainImageView & smallImageView. My smallImageView is added as subview to mainImageView. My smallImageView is draggable (i.e moving around the view). I want to restrict the movement of smallImageView within mainImageView (my smallImageView should not go outside of mainImageView).My smallImageView contains circle as image. Here is my code
-(void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
smallImageView.center = location;
}
-(void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
if (location.x < mainImageView.frame.origin.x || location.y < mainImageView.frame.origin.y) {
[self touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];
}
}
How can I fixed this problem. Thanks.
In both touch methods,
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
if(CGRectContainsPoint(mainImageView.frame, location)) {
smallImageView.center = location;
}
The disadvantage to this approach is that the small view moves to wherever you touch even if your touch doesn't start on the small view.
If you want to avoid this, set a 'dragging' boolean state only if your touchesBegan starts in the small view, and only respond to the touchesMoved if the dragging boolean is YES. Set dragging to NO on touchesEnded.
EDIT: Main view is a circle.
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
CGFloat xdifference = mainImageView.center.x - location.x;
CGFloat ydifference = mainImageView.center.y - location.y;
CGFloat distance = sqrt(xdifference * xdifference + ydifference * ydifference);
CGFloat radius = mainImageView.frame.size.width / 2;
if(distance < radius) {
smallImageView.center = location;
}
I am working on trying to get multiple UIImageViews to move when they are dragged. I was originally putting all the movement under TouchesBegan. However, when I drag a single object, they all disappear and only the one I am dragging moves.
How can I have each image dragged own its own terms(I drag the first image, only the first image moves etc.)?
I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for but I worked on this a while ago, so hopefully it's useful.
Just make sure you set up 7 UIImageViews in the XIB File, link them and you'll be good to go.
#synthesize img1, img2, img3, img4, img5, img6, magnet;
-(void) checkInsertion {
if (CGRectContainsRect(img2.frame, img1.frame)) {img1.center = img2.center;}
if (CGRectContainsRect(img4.frame, img3.frame)) {img3.center = img4.center;}
if (CGRectContainsRect(img6.frame, img5.frame)) {img5.center = img6.center;}
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.2];
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img1.frame)) {img1.center = magnet.center;}
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img2.frame)) {img2.center = magnet.center;}
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img3.frame)) {img3.center = magnet.center;}
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img4.frame)) {img4.center = magnet.center;}
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img5.frame)) {img5.center = magnet.center;}
if (CGRectIntersectsRect(magnet.frame, img6.frame)) {img6.center = magnet.center;}
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
-(void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch * touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint touchLoc = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
if (CGRectContainsPoint(img1.frame, touchLoc)) {img1.center = touchLoc;}
if (CGRectContainsPoint(img3.frame, touchLoc)) {img3.center = touchLoc;}
if (CGRectContainsPoint(img5.frame, touchLoc)) {img5.center = touchLoc;}
if (CGRectContainsPoint(magnet.frame, touchLoc)) {magnet.center = touchLoc;}
[self checkInsertion];
}
-(void) touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
[self touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];
}
You should look at UIPanGestureRecognizer. In the view controller that's responsible for these multiple image views, add a pan gesture recognizer to each of the image views. The view controller should be responsible for responding to the pan gesture callbacks and move the frame of the image view accordingly.
Of note, you should also grab the offset of the touch within the image view from the center and store this. Then, when the view is panned, you need to factor in the offset into your calculations. This is so the view doesn't just jump to the user's finger if they start dragging somewhere distant from the center point.
See the WWDC session videos from 2010 and 2011 about UIScrollView. Especially from 2011. They go into examples of how to do some of this.
I have gotten it to work!
-(void) touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [[event touchesForView:self.view] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
if(CGRectContainsPoint(plusone.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
plusone.center = location;
}
if(CGRectContainsPoint(plustwo.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
plustwo.center = location;
}
if(CGRectContainsPoint(plusthree.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
plusthree.center = location;
}
if(CGRectContainsPoint(minusone.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
minusone.center = location;
}
if(CGRectContainsPoint(minustwo.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
minustwo.center = location;
}
if(CGRectContainsPoint(minusthree.frame, location))
{
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
minusthree.center = location;
}
But, When An Image Collides With Another, It Disappears!
Does anyone have a fix to this problem?
i like to drag this object vertically instead of horizontally, which is doin it now:
- (void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
CGPoint location = [touch locationInView:touch.view];
if (CGRectContainsPoint(myObject.frame, location)){
CGPoint xLocation = CGPointMake(location.x, myObject.center.y);
myObject.center = xLocation;
}
}
CGPoint yLocation = CGPointMake(myObject.center.x, location.y);
myObject.center = yLocation;
