UIView is the core element in swift, we always use UIView if we want to create something unique like a custom design, a custom button. It is an object which used to manage the rectangle shape on the screen. But we have one limitation with the UIView, we can not get action for the UIView. To make UIView clickable we need to put UITapGesture on that view. But is there any other way to do this without any coding, the answer is YES!
In this video, we are going to learn how we can make UIView clickable in Swift without using UITapGesture, and without doing any coding to make that view tappable.
You can also read the article about Quiz App in Swift to learn more and understand how it helps in the real problem.
If you want to watch the video tutorial of this article, here you go:
1. Create a New Swift Project
Open Xcode, Select App and click on next and give a proper name to the project and make sure to select the user interface should be Swift, and create the project.
2. Create User Interface
We need to design some sample button-style views on the screen. So we can understand how it is useful to make UIView clickable directly without using UITapGesture.
So let’s quickly design some buttons on the screen, You can design these buttons as your need or can use this functionality directly on the view.
The above image shows some sample button styles that we face in day-to-day life, but for creating these kinds of buttons we use to view and put tap gestures on them. Now let’s see how we can create a view clickable with a tap gesture.
3. Create User Interface
For creating action of the above button first assign UIControl class to every view in the storyboard.
Now, Let’s create the action of view by dragging on the view controller.
Now click on the connect button and it will create the action on the ViewController.
Now, create the action for all the views in the same way. Now let’s run the application and see the debug area.
As you can clearly see in the output window when I clicked on any of the views. It will show the print statement in the output window.
Now you can run the application and test the complete functionality.
