Answer 1

When I use UIGestureRecognizer on a UITableView, I met the same problem like u.Finally, I found the "cancelsTouchesInView" property in UIGestureRecognizer by this one,and its helpful.

  UIGestureRecognizer* tapGesture = [[UIGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleTap:)];
  **tapGesture.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;**//pass touch event to others

Answer 2

I am not clear about the way you think that two swipe gesture recognizers could work together in that context, but I think you could try and give a look at the

– gestureRecognizer:shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:

delegate method.

Keep in mind that you have 2 gestures, so 2 delegate (conceptually, they be implemented by the same method), so you could make one gesture (first argument) always return NO, the other YES and see if you can make the 2 gesture recognizers work together in a satisfactorily way.

- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer {

    if ([gestureRecognizer.view isKindOfClass:[UITableView class]]) {
       ...
    } else {
       ...
    }
}

This is just an example which should work in your case (check the syntax, though), but you could also store the 2 recognizers in properties of your class, so you know which one is which.
