Displaying a PDFDocument
in a PDFView
allows the user to select parts of the document and perform actions e.g. "copy" with the selection.
How can selection be disabled in a PDFView while preserving the possibility for the user to zoom in and out and scroll in the PDF?
PDFView
itself does not seem to offer such a property nor does the PDFViewDelegate
.
You have to subclass PDFView, as such:
class MyPDFView: PDFView {
override func canPerformAction(_ action: Selector, withSender sender: Any?) -> Bool {
return false
}
override func addGestureRecognizer(_ gestureRecognizer: UIGestureRecognizer) {
if gestureRecognizer is UILongPressGestureRecognizer {
gestureRecognizer.isEnabled = false
}
super.addGestureRecognizer(gestureRecognizer)
}
}
