Problem with gesture in Xcode 12 and iOS 14

I have a problem after upgrading to Xcode 12 and iOS 14.

Scenario: I have a Nested UITableView: nestedTableView. Like below

class GAllowGestureEventPassTableView: UITableView, UIGestureRecognizerDelegate {

    var allowGestureEventPassViews: [UIView] = []
    
    func gestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer, shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWith otherGestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) -> Bool {
        panGestureRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = false
        guard let otherView = otherGestureRecognizer.view else { return false }
        print("tableView 💙 : \(type(of: otherView))")
        if allowGestureEventPassViews.contains(otherView) {
            print("allowGestureEventPassViews contains 💙 : \(type(of: otherView))")
            print("gesture pass 💙 ")
            return true
        } else {
            return false
        }
    }
}

Then I add another UITableView to nestedTableView's allowGestureEventPassViews array. so I can control which tableView can be scroll.

    self.nestedTableView.allowGestureEventPassViews.append(controller.tableView)

In Xcode 11.7, iOS 14 worked just fine.

Log:

tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : UITableView
allowGestureEventPassViews contains 💙 : UITableView
gesture pass 💙

but after upgrading to Xcode 12 gesture seen to be different. In Xcode 12 The gesture never pass through the nestedTableView.

tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : GAllowGestureEventPassTableView
tableView 💙 : UITableViewCellContentView

Does anyone has the same problem? or an I misunderstand something about iOS14 gesture.

Solution

  • I found the answer.

    In iOS14 some reason, UITableViewCellContentView hierarchy is different.

    In tableView(_:cellForRowAt:) I add subview

     cell.addSubview(contentScollView)

    UITableViewCellContentView is blocking the gesture.

    Change to

     cell.contentView.addSubview(contentScollView)

    This solve my problem.
