  • 0

I have a UIView within a UIScrollView. When i want to simulate the drag event on the UIView, swipe event on the UIScrollView is being triggered.

As per the documentation , there isn’t much of a difference between swipe and drag.

Swipe

1- Place the pointer at the start position.  
2- Hold the mouse button. 
3- Move the pointer in the swipe direction and release the mouse button.

Drag

1- Place the pointer at the start position.
2- Hold down the mouse button.
3- Move the pointer in the drag direction.

On an ipad I can use two fingers two swipe and one finger to drag. Now, how do i go about doing something similar on the simulator; drag instead of a swipe?

Edit 1:
I should have been clearer first up. Anyway, my problem is that the mouse drag is firing the swipe instead of drag, thereby scrolling the scroll view instead of passing on the drag event to the UIView contained by the scroll view.
I am on macbook pro. Two-finger swipe on the touchpad is being ignored. Touch and drag is causing the same thing as mouse-drag.
Thanks

    I ended up disabling the scrolling from the UI and added two buttons to scroll the scroll view. Since this is a work around only for the emulator, I have used #ifndef to hide the buttons while building for the device.
