I have UITableView that contains many cell. User can expand cell to see more content in this cell by push the expand button in this cell (only 1 cell can expand at time):
>
First add the long press gesture recognizer to the table view:
UILongPressGestureRecognizer *lpgr = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleLongPress:)];
lpgr.minimumPressDuration = 2.0; //seconds
lpgr.delegate = self;
[self.myTableView addGestureRecognizer:lpgr];
[lpgr release];
Then in the gesture handler:
-(void)handleLongPress:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer
{
if (gestureRecognizer.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan)
{
CGPoint p = [gestureRecognizer locationInView:self.myTableView];
NSIndexPath *indexPath = [self.myTableView indexPathForRowAtPoint:p];
if (indexPath == nil)
NSLog(@"long press on table view but not on a row");
else
NSLog(@"long press on table view at row %d", indexPath.row);
}
}
You have to be careful with this so that it doesn't interfere with the user's normal tapping of the cell and also note that handleLongPress may fire multiple times before user lifts their finger.
Thanks...!
