I could successfully add tap gestures to a part of UITextView with the following code:
UITextPosition *pos = textView.endOfDocument;// textView ~ UITextView
This is basic code for how can add UITapGestureRecognizer to your control;
UITapGestureRecognizer *singleTap = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleSingleTap:)];
[MyLabelName addGestureRecognizer:singleTap];
[self.view addSubView:MyLabelName]
This is method that call when you tapped your MyLabelName;
-(void)handleSingleTap:(UILabel *)myLabel
{
// do your stuff;
}
