Tap on UISlider to Set the Value

Question

I created a Slider (operating as control of the video, like YouTube has at the bottom) and set the maximum (duration) and minimum values. And then used SeekToTime t

Looks like you need to actually initialize the tap gesture recognizer in your viewDidLoad() per the code example above. There's a comment there, but I don't see the recognizer being created anywhere.

Swift 2:

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    var slider: UISlider!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        // Setup the slider

        // Add a gesture recognizer to the slider
        let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: "sliderTapped:")
        self.slider.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)
    }

    func sliderTapped(gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) {
        //  print("A")

        let pointTapped: CGPoint = gestureRecognizer.locationInView(self.view)

        let positionOfSlider: CGPoint = slider.frame.origin
        let widthOfSlider: CGFloat = slider.frame.size.width
        let newValue = ((pointTapped.x - positionOfSlider.x) * CGFloat(slider.maximumValue) / widthOfSlider)

        slider.setValue(Float(newValue), animated: true)      
    }
}

Swift 3:

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    var slider: UISlider!

    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()

        // Setup the slider

        // Add a gesture recognizer to the slider
        let tapGestureRecognizer = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(sliderTapped(gestureRecognizer:)))
        self.slider.addGestureRecognizer(tapGestureRecognizer)
    }

    func sliderTapped(gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) {
        //  print("A")

        let pointTapped: CGPoint = gestureRecognizer.location(in: self.view)

        let positionOfSlider: CGPoint = slider.frame.origin
        let widthOfSlider: CGFloat = slider.frame.size.width
        let newValue = ((pointTapped.x - positionOfSlider.x) * CGFloat(slider.maximumValue) / widthOfSlider)

        slider.setValue(Float(newValue), animated: true)
    }
}
