SwiftUI: how to handle BOTH tap & long press of button?

Question

I have a button in SwiftUI and I would like to be able to have a different action for \"tap button\" (normal click/tap) and \"long press\".

Is that possible in Swift

Answer 1

Here is my implementation using a modifier:

struct TapAndLongPressModifier: ViewModifier {
  @State private var isLongPressing = false
  let tapAction: (()->())
  let longPressAction: (()->())
  func body(content: Content) -> some View {
    content
      .scaleEffect(isLongPressing ? 0.95 : 1.0)
      .onLongPressGesture(minimumDuration: 1.0, pressing: { (isPressing) in
        withAnimation {
          isLongPressing = isPressing
          print(isPressing)
        }
      }, perform: {
        longPressAction()
      })
      .simultaneousGesture(
        TapGesture()
          .onEnded { _ in
            tapAction()
          }
      )
  }
}

Use it like this on any view:

.modifier(TapAndLongPressModifier(tapAction: {  },
                                  longPressAction: {  }))

It just mimics the look a button by scaling the view down a bit. You can put any other effect you want after scaleEffect to make it look how you want when pressed.
