[SOLVED] Double tap gesture on status bar

Double tap gesture on status bar

I have made my very first app (simple re-spring) with Theos, currently it works by tapping in the icon but I wish to redo it without an icon (as a tweak) and have the phone respiring when I double tap on the task bar.

Question is: how do I add a double tap gesture on the status/task bar?

Thanks.

Solution

There're several ways. You can use custom events or capture touches in your app delegate class like there

Ok, your answer is much simpler. To be useful here the -(BOOL)scrollViewShouldScrollToTop: method implementation for your task.

- (BOOL)scrollViewShouldScrollToTop:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
  tapIndex++; // class member
  if(tapIndex==2)
  {
    [self statusBarDoubleTapped];
    tapIndex=0;
  }
  else
  { 
    NSTimeInterval interval = 1; // one second wait for the second tap
    dispatch_after(dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, (int64_t)(interval * NSEC_PER_SEC)), dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
           if(tapIndex==1) // one second since the only status bar tap
             tapIndex=0;
        });
  }
  return NO; // don't scroll to top
}
