UIPanGestureRecognizer on UITableViewCell overrides UITableView's scroll view gesture recognizer

Question

I\'ve subclassed UITableViewCell and in that class I apply a Pan gesture recogniser:

UIPanGestureRecognizer *panning = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer          


        

Answer 1

Add the gesture recogniser On tableview. From that, you can get the cell object. From there you can handle the cell Functionality. For each gesture, there will be a begin, changed, end state. So, store the begin position.

    CGPoint beginLocation = [gesture locationInView:tblView]; // touch begin state.

    CGPoint endLocation = [gesture locationInView:tblView]; // touch end state.

Using this point, you can get the IndexPath

    NSIndexPath *indexPath = [tblView indexPathForRowAtPoint:beginPoint];

From this indexpath, you can access the cell.

            UITableViewCell *cell = [tableview cellForRowAtIndexPath : indexPath];

Using this Cell object, you can handle it.

Answer 2

Subclass the panning gesture recognizer and make it recognize only horizontal panning. There is a great WWDC 2010 video on the issue of custom gesture recognizers available. Actually there are two on that subject, check them out at https://developer.apple.com/videos/archive/:

• Simplifying Touch Event Handling with Gesture Recognizers
• Advanced Gesture Recognition

Answer 3

Have you tried setting pannings delegate property?

panning.delegate = /* class name with the delegate method in it */;

You'll also need to conform that class to UIGestureRecognizerDelegate.

Answer 4

Have you tried setting the bounces property to NO?
