I currently have the problem that touches are not always identified correctly, My goal is to have 3 gestures,The 3 gestures are
- A user can tap on a view and the tap gets recognised,
- A user can double tap on a view and the double tap is recognised,
- A user can move their finger on the screen and if a view is below it a tab is recognised.
However I have multiple views all animating constantly and they may overlap, Currently I sort views by size and have the smallest views on top of larger views. And I typically get an issue that UIViews are not recognised when tapping on them. In particular double taps, swiping seems to work fine most of the time however the whole experience is very inconsistent.
The current code I'm using to solve the problem is:
class FinderrBoxView: UIView {
private var lastBox: String?
private var throttleDelay = 0.01
private var processQueue = DispatchQueue(label: "com.finderr.FinderrBoxView")

didSet {
predictedObjects.forEach { self.checkIfBoxIntersectCentre(prediction: $0) }
drawBoxs(with: FinderrBoxView.sortBoxByeSize(predictedObjects))
setNeedsDisplay()
}
}
func drawBoxs(with predictions: [FinderrItem]) {
var newBoxes = Set(predictions)
var views = subviews.compactMap { $0 as? BoxView }

CodePudding user response:
By default view objects block user interaction while an animation is "in flight". You need to use one of the "long form" animation methods, and pass in the option .allowUserInteraction. Something like this:
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.5,
delay: 0.0,
options: .allowUserInteraction,
animations: {
myView.alpha = 0.5
})
