iOS UIPickerView: How to limit the scrolling range

Question

When you scroll UIPickerView you can move your finger on the touchpad up and down - far up and down to how big the screen is. Is there a way to limit this range of scrolling up and down to the area of the UIPickerView? So that once you move your finger outside of the UIPickerView the scrolling of the UIPickerView stops? I am making UIPIckerView as a spinner in a game, and I need to achieve this for a fair gaming.

Answer 1

//viewDidLoad

UILongPressGestureRecognizer* gestureRecognizer = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(pickerLongPressDetected:)];
    gestureRecognizer.minimumPressDuration = .001;
    gestureRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;
    gestureRecognizer.delegate = self;
    [self.rollerView addGestureRecognizer:gestureRecognizer];

-(BOOL)gestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer shouldRecognizeSimultaneouslyWithGestureRecognizer:(UIGestureRecognizer *)otherGestureRecognizer{
    // return
    return true;
}

-(void)pickerLongPressDetected:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer *)gesture
{
    CGPoint touchPoint = [gesture locationInView:self.view];

    CGRect frame = self.rollerView.frame;

    if(!CGRectContainsPoint(frame, touchPoint))
    {
        //methods for when you scroll outside of your picker view's frame
    }
}

you can use UITapGestureRecognizer with UIPickerView and then you can get coordinate. If you get point in your desired frame then do your work otherwise return
