Question

Having a segmented control with two UIButton and set the action to action:@selector(segmentedControl:) for each button.

    - (IBAction)segmentedControl:(id)sender {

        BOOL activateSecond = _firstTab.selected;
        _firstTab.selected = !activateSecond;
        _secondTab.selected = activateSecond;
}

The issue which still remains is how to solve if I’m tapping on the active button (now the active state jumps to the other one).

Answer 1

On top of my head, I think you could use tag property.

Set each button’s tag to a number.

Then when you receive a send in your segmentedControl method cast it to UIButton and check it’s tag value.

- (IBAction)segmentedControl:(id)sender {

    int buttonTag = ((UIButton*)sender).tag;

    if(_firstTab.selected && buttonTag != 1){
       _firstTab.selected = NO;
       _secondTab.selected = YES;
    }else if(_secondTab.selected && buttonTag != 2){
       _firstTab.selected = YES;
       _secondTab.selected = NO;
    }
}
