Question

I am trying to get a gesture to reload a webpage for an app I am coding for. As of now the gestures are working by using UIGestureRecognizer. I have successfully been able to code such that when I swipe I have a UILabel change. I want to use this gesture to reload a webpage. Currently, I have something like this in my m file that causes this to happen.

- (void)ScreenWasSwiped
{
    [swipe setText:@"This is working"];
}

and under viewdidload

UISwipeGestureRecognizer *swipedown = [[UISwipeGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector (ScreenWasSwiped)];
swipedown.numberOfTouchesRequired = 1;
swipedown.direction=UISwipeGestureRecognizerDirectionDown;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:swipedown];

How can I change this so that I can reload the browser with the same gesture?

Thanks in advance.

In your method called ScreenWasSwiped, use call reload on your UIWebView instance. It’ll look something like this:

-(void)ScreenWasSwiped
{
    [myWebView reload];
}
