I'm using XCode 4.4 developing for iOS 5 on an iPad and am using the Storyboard layout when creating my custom button.
I have the touch event correctly working and logging but now I want to get the x/y coordinates of the tap on my custom button.
If possible, I'd like the coordinates to be relative to the custom button instead of relative to the entire iPad screen.
Here's my code in the .h file:
- (IBAction)getButtonClick:(id)sender;
and my code in the .m file:
- (IBAction)getButtonClick:(id)sender {
NSLog(@"Image Clicked.");
}
Like I said, that correctly logs when I tap the image.
How can I get the coordinates of the tap?
I've tried a few different examples from the internet but they always freeze when it displays a bunch of numbers (maybe the coordinates) in the log box. I'm VERY new to iOS developing so please make it as simple as possible. Thanks!
Incase of Swift 3.0 the accepted answer works same except syntax will be changed as follows:
Swift 3.0:
@IBAction func buyTap(_ sender: Any, forEvent event: UIEvent) {
let myButton = sender as! UIButton
let touches = event.touches(for: myButton)
let touch = touches?.first
let touchPoint = touch?.location(in: myButton)
print("touchPoint\(touchPoint)")
}
