I have a class called PhotoBoothController that I use to manipulate an image using gestures. It works fine when I run it on iPhone. However when I run it on iPad, I display the PhotoBoothController inside a UIPopoverController. The image appears fine, however I can't manipulate it as my gestures don't appear to be recognized. I'm not sure how to make the UIPopoverController take control of the gestures.
I present the popovercontroller and configure the view thus:
- (void)presentPhotoBoothForPhoto:(UIImage *)photo button:(UIButton *)button {
//Create a photoBooth and set its contents
PhotoBoothController *photoBoothController = [[PhotoBoothController alloc] init];
photoBoothController.photoImage.image = [button backgroundImageForState:UIControlStateNormal];
//set up all the elements programmatically.
photoBoothController.view.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
//Add frame (static)
UIImage *frame = [[UIImage imageNamed:@"HumptyLine1Frame.png"] adjustForResolution];
UIImageView *frameView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:frame];
frameView.frame = CGRectMake(50, 50, frame.size.width, frame.size.height);
[photoBoothController.view addSubview:frameView];
//Configure image
UIImageView *photoView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithImage:photo];
photoView.frame = CGRectMake(50, 50, photo.size.width, photo.size.height);
photoBoothController.photoImage = photoView;
//Add canvas
UIView *canvas = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:frameView.frame];
photoBoothController.canvas = canvas;
[canvas addSubview:photoView];
[canvas becomeFirstResponder];
[photoBoothController.view addSubview:canvas];
[photoBoothController.view bringSubviewToFront:frameView];
//resize the popover view shown in the current view to the view's size
photoBoothController.contentSizeForViewInPopover = CGSizeMake(frameView.frame.size.width+100, frameView.frame.size.height+400);
self.photoBooth = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:photoBoothController];
[self.photoBooth presentPopoverFromRect:button.frame
inView:self.view
permittedArrowDirections:UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny
animated:YES];
}
I thought [canvas becomeFirstResponder]
might do it but it doesn't appear to make a difference.
Any advice much appreciate, thank you.
UPDATE: adding code as per comment
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
if (!_marque) {
_marque = [CAShapeLayer layer];
_marque.fillColor = [[UIColor clearColor] CGColor];
_marque.strokeColor = [[UIColor grayColor] CGColor];
_marque.lineWidth = 1.0f;
_marque.lineJoin = kCALineJoinRound;
_marque.lineDashPattern = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSNumber numberWithInt:10],[NSNumber numberWithInt:5], nil];
_marque.bounds = CGRectMake(photoImage.frame.origin.x, photoImage.frame.origin.y, 0, 0);
_marque.position = CGPointMake(photoImage.frame.origin.x + canvas.frame.origin.x, photoImage.frame.origin.y + canvas.frame.origin.y);
}
[[self.view layer] addSublayer:_marque];
UIPinchGestureRecognizer *pinchRecognizer = [[UIPinchGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(scale:)];
[pinchRecognizer setDelegate:self];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:pinchRecognizer];
UIRotationGestureRecognizer *rotationRecognizer = [[UIRotationGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(rotate:)];
[rotationRecognizer setDelegate:self];
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:rotationRecognizer];
UIPanGestureRecognizer *panRecognizer = [[UIPanGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(move:)];
[panRecognizer setMinimumNumberOfTouches:1];
[panRecognizer setMaximumNumberOfTouches:1];
[panRecognizer setDelegate:self];
[canvas addGestureRecognizer:panRecognizer];
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapProfileImageRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(tapped:)];
[tapProfileImageRecognizer setNumberOfTapsRequired:1];
[tapProfileImageRecognizer setDelegate:self];
[canvas addGestureRecognizer:tapProfileImageRecognizer];
}
- (BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer {
return ![gestureRecognizer isKindOfClass:[UIPanGestureRecognizer class]] && ![gestureRecognizer isKindOfClass:[UITapGestureRecognizer class]];
}
I am working on a similar application, and i can easily manipulate images on the canvas.
1) Check if the userInteractionEnabled property of the canvas is set to YES.
2) You can try adding the gestures to the ImageView's rather than the canvas. (I am guessing u want to zoom , rotate n swipe the images).
some guesses:
is this because viewDidLoad
method have been called before cavas property been set? In this case, you could try to add recognizers after present popover in another method such as viewDidAppear
.
I also agree that the key may be that UIPopoverController allows interaction to other views outside of the popover. So i suggest to move [canvas becomeFirstResponder];
to the end of the viewDidLoad
method in PhotoBoothController
and try self.view becomeFirstResponder
here because you actually add recognizers to self.view.
