Question

is it possible to have a UISwipeGestureRecognizer work in a UIScrollView?

I have some UIImageViews that I move with a swipe up or down, but this all needs to be inside a UIScrollView as the content is larger than the window size. So when I try to swipe the UIImageView the whole screen scrolls.
 

Answer 1

This is the solution that worked for me

[[scrollView panGestureRecognizer] requireGestureRecognizerToFail:yourSwipeGestureRecognizer];

although it only works in ios 5.0 and above.
