SWRevealViewController close rear view when tapping front view

Question

I am using SWRevealViewController in order to implement a side nav menu in my app. I would like to make it so that the front view cannot be interacted with when

Answer 1

I used the tapGestureRecognizer but there are still some problems. I tried this and worked great!

Define class:

@interface IgnoreView : UIView

@property (nonatomic, assign) BOOL shouldAllTouchesBeForMe;

@end

Implement:

@implementation IgnoreView

- (UIView *)hitTest:(CGPoint)point withEvent:(UIEvent *)event
{
    if( self.shouldAllTouchesBeForMe ){
        return self;
    }
    return [super hitTest:point withEvent:event];
}

@end

Then make your View class in Interface Builder of class IgnoreView

In your ViewController, then, do:

in - viewDidLoad

self.revealViewController.delegate = self;
[self.view addGestureRecognizer:self.revealViewController.tapGestureRecognizer];

the implement in your viewcontroller also:

- (void)revealController:(SWRevealViewController *)revealController didMoveToPosition:(FrontViewPosition)position
{
    IgnoreView *i = (id)self.view;
    i.shouldAllTouchesBeForMe = position == FrontViewPositionRight;
}

And you're all set!
