Getting a UITextview to accept a double tap


  • Subject: Getting a UITextview to accept a double tap

I have a subclass of UITextview that I want to recognize a double tap, and then to pass the event onto the controller of its superview. (The superview's controller is a subclass of UIViewController.) The responder chain works as expected, however, the tap count does not.

I have tried using touchesBegan, touchesEnded, and a tap gesture recognizer. Double taps simply aren't recognized. When I check the tap count in my text view, it is never 2 when I double tap, always 1. (To be clear, there are not two events with a tap count of 1, just one event.) However if I triple tap, the tap count shows as 3, just like it should. This is for the iPhone 4.2 Simulator. For both the iPad 4.2 Simulator, and an actual iPad, triple taps are not recognized either, but quadruple taps are.

Does anyone know what I can do to recognize double taps? I suspect it is something to do with the text view being a subclass of UIScrollView.

Thanks for any pointers. I have searched this list to no avail, and I have tried a few things from a general web search.
