UIScrollView zoomToRect not zooming to given rect (created from UITouch CGPoint) - iphone

My application has a UIScrollView with one subview. The subview is an extended UIView which prints a PDF page to itself using layers in the drawLayer event.
Zooming using the built in pinching works great. setZoomScale also works as expected.
I have been struggling with the zoomToRect function. I found an example online which makes a CGRect zoomRect variable from a given CGPoint.
In the touchesEnded function, if there was a double tap and they are all the way zoomed out, I want to zoom in to that PDFUIView I created as though they were pinching out with the center of the pinch where they double tapped.
So assume that I pass the UITouch variable to my function which utilizes zoomToRect if they double tap.
I started with the following function I found on apples site:
http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/WindowsViews/Conceptual/UIScrollView_pg/ZoomZoom/ZoomZoom.html
The following is a modified version for my UIScrollView extended class:
- (void)zoomToCenter:(float)scale withCenter:(CGPoint)center {
CGRect zoomRect;
zoomRect.size.height = self.frame.size.height / scale;
zoomRect.size.width = self.frame.size.width / scale;
zoomRect.origin.x = center.x - (zoomRect.size.width / 2.0);
zoomRect.origin.y = center.y - (zoomRect.size.height / 2.0);
//return zoomRect;
[self zoomToRect:zoomRect animated:YES];
}
When I do this, the UIScrollView seems to zoom using the bottom right edge of the zoomRect above and not the center.
If I make UIView like this
UIView *v = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:zoomRect];
[v setBackgroundColor:[UIView redColor]];
[self addSubview:v];
The red box shows up with the touch point dead in the center.
Please note: I am writing this from my PC, I recall messing around with the divided by two part on my Mac, so just assume that this draws a rect with the touch point in the center. If the UIView drew off center but zoomed to the right spot it would be all good.
However, what happens is when it preforms the zoomToRect it seems to use the bottom right off the zoomRect at the top left of the zoomed in results.
Also, I noticed that depending on where I click on the UIScrollView, it anchors to diffrent spots. It almost seems like there is a cross down the middle and it's reflecting the points somehow as though anywhere left of the middle is a negative reflection and anywhere right of the middle is a positive reflection?
This seems to complicated, shouldn't it just zoom to the rect that was drawn as the UIView was able to draw?
I used a lot of research to figure out how to create a PDF that scales in high quality, so I am assuming that using the CALayer may be throwing off the coordinate system? But to the UIScrollView it should just treat it as a view with 768x985 dimensions.
This is sort of advanced, please assume the code for creating the zoomRect is all good. There is something deeper with the CALayer in the UIView which is in the UIScrollView....

Ok another answer:
The apple supplied routine works for me, but you need to have the gesture recognizer convert the tap point to the imageView coords - not to the scroller.
Apple's example does this, but since our app works differently (we change the UIImageView), so the gestureRecongnizer was set up on the uiscrollview - which works fine, but you need to do this in the handleDoubleTap:
This is loosely based on the apple example code "TaptoZoom", but as I said we needed our gesture recognizer hooked up to the scroll view.
- (void)handleDoubleTap:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer {
// double tap zooms in
[NSObject cancelPreviousPerformRequestsWithTarget:self selector:#selector(handleSingleTap:) object:nil];
float newScale = [imageScrollView zoomScale] * 1.5;
// Note we need to get location of the tap in the imageView coords, not the imageScrollView
CGRect zoomRect = [self zoomRectForScale:newScale withCenter:[gestureRecognizer locationInView:imageView]];
[imageScrollView zoomToRect:zoomRect animated:YES];
}

Declare BOOL isZoom; in .h
-(void)handleDoubleTap:(UIGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
if(isZoom){
CGPoint Pointview=[recognizer locationInView:self];
CGFloat newZoomscal=3.0;
newZoomscal=MIN(newZoomscal, self.maximumZoomScale);
CGSize scrollViewSize=self.bounds.size;
CGFloat w=scrollViewSize.width/newZoomscal;
CGFloat h=scrollViewSize.height /newZoomscal;
CGFloat x= Pointview.x-(w/2.0);
CGFloat y = Pointview.y-(h/2.0);
CGRect rectTozoom=CGRectMake(x, y, w, h);
[self zoomToRect:rectTozoom animated:YES];
[self setZoomScale:3.0 animated:YES];
isZoom=NO;
}
else{
[self setZoomScale:1.0 animated:YES];
isZoom=YES;
}
}

I've noticed that the apple you're using doesn't zoom properly if the image is starting at a zoomScale less than 1 because the zoomRect origin is incorrect. I edited it to work correctly. Here's the code:
- (CGRect)zoomRectForScale:(float)scale withCenter:(CGPoint)center {
CGRect zoomRect;
// the zoom rect is in the content view's coordinates.
// At a zoom scale of 1.0, it would be the size of the imageScrollView's bounds.
// As the zoom scale decreases, so more content is visible, the size of the rect grows.
zoomRect.size.height = [self frame].size.height / scale;
zoomRect.size.width = [self frame].size.width / scale;
// choose an origin so as to get the right center.
zoomRect.origin.x = (center.x * (2 - self.minimumZoomScale) - (zoomRect.size.width / 2.0));
zoomRect.origin.y = (center.y * (2 - self.minimumZoomScale) - (zoomRect.size.height / 2.0));
return zoomRect;
}
The key is this part multiplying the center value by (2 - self.minimumZoomScale).
Hope this helps.

In my case it was:
zoomRect.origin.x = center.x / self.zoomScale - (zoomRect.size.width / 2.0);
zoomRect.origin.y = center.y / self.zoomScale - (zoomRect.size.height / 2.0);

extension UIScrollView {
func getRectForVisibleView() -> CGRect {
var visibleRect: CGRect = .zero
visibleRect.origin = self.contentOffset
visibleRect.size = self.bounds.size
let theScale = 1.0 / self.zoomScale
visibleRect.origin.x *= theScale
visibleRect.origin.y *= theScale
visibleRect.size.width *= theScale
visibleRect.size.height *= theScale
return visibleRect
}
func moveToRect(rect: CGRect) {
let scale = self.bounds.width / rect.width
self.zoomScale = scale
self.contentOffset = .init(x: rect.origin.x * scale, y: rect.origin.y * scale)
}
}

I had something similar and it was because I didn't adjust the center.x and center.y values by dividing them by the scale also (using center.x/scale and center.y/scale). Maybe I'm not reading your code right.

I am having the same behavior and it is quite frustrating... The rectangle being fed to the UIScrollView is perfect.. yet my view, no matter what I do anything that involves changing the zoomScale programmatically always zooms and scales to coordinate 0,0, no matter what.
I have tried just changing the zoomScale, I've tried zoomToRect, I have tried them all, and every one the minute I touch the zoomScale in code, it goes to coordinate 0,0.
I did also have to add and explicit setContentSize to the resized image in the scrollview after a zooming operation, or otherwise I cannot scroll after a zoom or pinch.
Is this a bug in 3.1.3 or what?

I have tried different solutions, but this looks the best resolution
It is really straight forward and conceptional?
CGRect frame = [[UIScreen mainScreen] applicationFrame];
scrollView.contentInset = UIEdgeInsetsMake(frame.size.height/2,
frame.size.width/2,
frame.size.height/2,
frame.size.width/2);

I disagree with one of the comments above saying that you should never multiply the center's coordinates by some factor.
Say that you are currently displaying an entire 400x400px image or PDF file in a 100x100 scroll view and want to allow the users to double the size of the content until it's 1:1.
If you double tap at point (75,75), you expect the zoomed-in rectangle to have origin 100,100 and size 100x100 within the new 200x200 content view. So the original tapping point (75,75) is now (150,150) in the new 200x200 space.
Now, after zoom action #1 has completed, if you again double tap at (75,75) inside the new 100x100 rectangle (which is the bottom-right square of the larger 200x200 rectangle), you expect the user to be shown the bottom-right 100x100 square of the larger image, which would now become zoomed to 400x400 pixels.
In order to calculate the origin of this latest 100x100 rectangle within the larger 400x400 rectangle, you would need to consider the scale and current content offset (since before this last zoom action we were displaying the bottom-right 100x100 rectangle within a 200x200 content rectangle).
So the x coordinate of the final rectangle becomes:
center.x/currentScale - (scrollView.frame.size.width/2) + scrollView.contentOffset.x/currentScale
= 75/.5 - 100/2 + 100/.5 = 150 - 50 + 200 = 300.
In this case, being a square, the calculation for the y coordinate is the same.
And we did indeed zoom in the bottom-right 100x100 rectangle, which, in the larger 400x400 content view has origin 300,300.
So here is how you would calculate the zoom rectangle's size and origin:
zoomRect.size.height = mScrollView.frame.size.height/scale;
zoomRect.size.width = mScrollView.frame.size.width/scale;
zoomRect.origin.x = center.x/currentScale - (mScrollView.frame.size.width/2) + mScrollView.contentOffset.x/currentScale;
zoomRect.origin.y = center.y/currentScale - (mScrollView.frame.size.height/2) + mScrollView.contentOffset.y/currentScale;
Hope this made sense; it's hard to explain it in writing without sketching out the various squares/rectangles.

Manually Scaling UIImage for UIImageView

What is the best way to manually reproduce
contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
without using it?
I need to scale a UIImageView (inside a scroll view) to fit the aspect ratio. I need to know the new size of the image to draw overlays over it.
Recently, I needed to find the frame of the image inside an ImageView, to add touchable views over that image, this is how I did it:
-(void)calculateScaleAndContainerFrame{
if(!imageView || !image) return;
CGSize imageSize = image.size;
CGSize imageViewSize = imageView.frame.size;
float imageRatio = imageSize.width / imageSize.height;
float viewRatio = imageViewSize.width / imageViewSize.height;
if(imageRatio > viewRatio){
scale = imageSize.width / imageViewSize.width;
}else{
scale = imageSize.height / imageViewSize.height;
}
CGRect frame = CGRectZero;
frame.size = CGSizeMake(roundf(imageSize.width / scale), roundf(imageSize.height / scale));
frame.origin = CGPointMake((imageViewSize.width - frame.size.width) / 2.0, (imageViewSize.height - frame.size.height) / 2.0);
[container setFrame:frame];
}
I'm pretty sure you can use it as a guide, replacing the imageViewSize with the content size of your scroll view (or the view you want to put your image in).
Note 1: In my case, I needed to center the view vertically, if you don't, just set the y to 0 on the line where I set the frame origin. Same for x if you don't want to center the image horizontally.
Note 2: This is NOT, by any means, a code you can just plug in into your project and work, you'll probably have to read it, understand it, and then apply the method to your own project. I don't have time right now to modify it to your needs.
Note 3: With that code I managed to get a view perfectly over the image inside a image view that used that content mode, so it works.

Using 2 UIPinchGestureRecognizers on the same UIImageView

I have an image view that I want to pinch to rescale without keeping the aspect ratio. In order to do this, I thought it might be feasible to either:
Use two pinch gesture recognisers, one that stretches horizontally, one that does so vertically.
Use one pinch recogniser but apply the two transforms one after the other.
Here's my pinch handling function:
- (void) pinch:(UIPinchGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
static CGRect initialBounds;
if (recognizer.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan)
{
initialBounds = imageView.bounds;
}
CGFloat factor = [(UIPinchGestureRecognizer *)recognizer scale];
//scale horizontally
CGAffineTransform zt = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity,
factor-(1.0-factor), 1.0);
imageView.bounds = CGRectApplyAffineTransform(initialBounds, zt);
//now scale vertically
zt = CGAffineTransformScale(CGAffineTransformIdentity, 1.0, factor);
imageView.bounds = CGRectApplyAffineTransform(initialBounds, zt);
return;
}
For some reason, the transform is only being done vertically (last one). I tried changing the first parameter of the second CGRectApplyAffineTransform to imageView.bounds, but it still didn't work.
Can anyone please tell me where I am going wrong?
Also, when using two pinch gesture recognisers, the same thing happens - only one of them actually gets recognised.
Thanks!
Your second one is starting with a CGAffineTransformIdentity. Instead, pass in the zt.

Translating a view and the rotating it problem

I have a custom UIImageView, I can drag it around screen by making a translation with (xDif and yDif is the amount fingers moved):
CGAffineTransform translate = CGAffineTransformMakeTranslation(xDif, yDif);
[self setTransform: CGAffineTransformConcat([self transform], translate)];
Let's say I moved the ImageView for 50px in both x and y directions. I then try to rotate the ImageView (via gesture recognizer) with:
CGAffineTransform transform = CGAffineTransformMakeRotation([recognizer rotation]);
myImageView.transform = transform;
What happens is the ImageView suddenly moves to where the ImageView was originally located (before the translation - not from the moved position + 50px in both directions).
(It seems that no matter how I translate the view, the self.center of the ImageView subclass stays the same - where it was originally laid in IB).
Another problem is, if I rotate the ImageView by 30 deg, and then try to rotate it a bit more, it will again start from the original position (angle = 0) and go from there, why wouldn't it start from the angle 30 deg and not 0.
You are overwriting the earlier transform. To add to the current transform, you should do this –
myImageView.transform = CGAffineTransformRotate(myImageView.transform, recognizer.rotation);
Since you're changing the transform property in a serial order, you should use CGAffineTransformRotate, CGAffineTransformTranslate and CGAffineTransformScale instead so that you add to the original transform and not create a new one.

Get the zoomed frame of UIScrollView relative to original size

I have a UIScrollView and added a UIView inside it, when I zoom it, is it possible to get the CGRect of the zoomed frame in relation to the original frame?
E.g. i have 800x600 frame, then i zoomed to {{50, 60}, {100, 100}} is it possible to programmatically get the zoomed frame?
I usually use the following method (added to the custom UIScrollView category):
- (CGRect) visibleRect{
CGRect visibleRect;
visibleRect.origin = self.contentOffset;
visibleRect.size = self.bounds.size;
visibleRect.origin.x /= self.zoomScale;
visibleRect.origin.y /= self.zoomScale;
visibleRect.size.width /= self.zoomScale;
visibleRect.size.height /= self.zoomScale;
return visibleRect;
}
The problem with #Vladimir solution is that it displays visibleRect wrong if viewForZoom is smaller than ScrollView bounds. So I came up with this solution.
- (CGRect) zoomedFrame{
CGRect zoomedFrame;
zoomedFrame.origin = self.contentOffset;
zoomedFrame.origin.x -= zoomingView.frame.origin.x;
zoomedFrame.origin.y -= zoomingView.frame.origin.y;
zoomedFrame.size = self.contentSize;
return zoomedFrame;
}
zoomingView is a view that returns viewForZoomingInScrollView: method.
bounds are bounds of scrollView.
So there are two cases:
When the zoomingView is smaller than bounds, contentOffset reflect not the top-left corner of content view, but some strange shift of content view relative to the center of bounds. And zoomingView.frame.origin has normal values as if zoomingView were in the center of bounds. (this happens if you try to shrink the zoomingView more than minimulScale)
When the zoomingView is bigget than bounds, zoomingView.frame.origin has strange values like this:
{-6.15367e-06, 3.98168e-06}
And contentOffset shows what it should.
So all that compensate each other as I showed in my code.

Find the center point of a UIScrollView while zooming

I'm having difficulties getting a tiled UIScrollView to zoom in and out correctly with pinch zooming. The issue is that when a pinch-zoom occurs, the resulting view is usually not centered in the same region.
Details: The app starts with a tiled image that is 500x500. If a user zooms in, it will snap to 1000x1000 and the tiles will redraw. For all the zoom affects, etc. I am just letting the UIScrollView do it's thing. When scrollViewDidEndZooming:withView:atScale: is called, I redraw the tiles (like you can see in many examples and other questions here).
I think that I've drilled the problem down to calculating the center of the view correctly when I get to scrollViewDidEndZooming:withView:atScale: (I can center on a known point fine after I redraw).
What I'm currently using:
- (void)scrollViewDidEndZooming:(UIScrollView *)scrollView withView:(UIView *)view atScale:(float)scale {
// as an example, create the "target" content size
CGSize newZoomSize = CGSizeMake(1000, 1000);
// get the center point
CGPoint center = [scrollView contentOffset];
center.x += [scrollView frame].width / 2;
center.y += [scrollView frame].height / 2;
// since pinch zoom changes the contentSize of the scroll view, translate this point to
// the "target" size (from the current size)
center = [self translatePoint:center currentSize:[scrollView contentSize] newSize:newZoomSize];
// redraw...
}
/*
Translate the point from one size to another
*/
- (CGPoint)translatePoint:(CGPoint)origin currentSize:(CGSize)currentSize newSize:(CGSize)newSize {
// shortcut if they are equal
if(currentSize.width == newSize.width && currentSize.height == newSize.height){ return origin; }
// translate
origin.x = newSize.width * (origin.x / currentSize.width);
origin.y = newSize.height * (origin.y / currentSize.height);
return origin;
}
Does this seem correct? Is there a better way? Thanks!
The way I have solved this so far is to store the initial center point of the view when the zoom starts. I initially saving this value when the scrollViewDidScroll method is called (and the scroll view is zooming). When scrollViewDidEndZooming:withView:atScale: is called, I use that center point (and reset the saved value).
The center of the scrollview can be found by adding it's center property, and it's contentOffset property.
aView.center = CGPointMake(
self.scrollView.center.x + self.scrollView.contentOffset.x,
self.scrollView.center.y + self.scrollView.contentOffset.y);
