UIGestureRecognizer for part of a UIView

Question

I\'m using UIGestureRecognizer in my iOS application and I\'m having some issues.

I only want the gestures to work in a certain area of the view, so I made a new UIView

Answer 1

Yo can also do:

gestureRecognizer.delegate = self

somewhere. generally on viewDidLoad(). then you implement the method:

 func gestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer, shouldReceive touch: UITouch) -> Bool {
        let view = self.getTheViewDontWannaConsider() /* or whateva */

        let point = touch.location(in:view)
        if point.y >= 50 /* or whateva calc. you want */ {
           return false
        }
        return true
    }
