Question

I have a view with two swipe gesture recognizers. One left and one right.

On top of this view, i have another view with two other swipe gesture recognizers.

My problem is that any swipe i do on the second view gets sent to the parent view as well.

How do i prevent this?
And, how do i prevent a touch event triggered in child view B from getting sent to parent view A?

thanks!

ps. sorry if this question was asked before.. i did try a bunch of stuff before asking, but nothing worked ..

Answer 1

This can be easily accomplished with the UIGestureRecognizer‘s cancelsTouchesInView property. Set this to YES on the subview’s recognizers, and that should prevent the gestures from propagating to the parent view.
