Following touch / using gesture recognizer translation on custom interactive transitioning

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23550059

Question

I created a custom transition for navigation controller where as the user pans up, the next controller's view revealed below as the current controller's view moves in upward direction. I want that view to move by following the touch (as if it is glued to finger at the touch point), but i dont know how to pass that translation from pan gesture recognizer to the object that implements UIViewControllerAnimatedTransitioning. Well, I do but i cannot access it from inside the [UIView animateWithDuration ... ] block (It seems that block is executed once, I thought it would be executed as percentage of completion changes). How can I accomplish this?

To ask the question in a different way, if you use the Photos app in ios7, when you are looking at a photo, touch with two fingers and pinch /move and you will see that it is following the finger (movements). Any example code for this?

Was it helpful?

Solution

You'll need to create a separate animation controller as a subclass of UIPercentDrivenInteractiveTransition to go along with your custom transition animation. This is the class that will calculate the percentage of how complete your animation is. There's too much to explain in a single SO answer, but have a look at the docs here. You can also refer to one of my implementations of a custom transition animation with interactive abilities here to see it in action.

Croberth's answer is correct. You actually have two choices.
