The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
You can use a UILongPressGestureRecognizer for this. Wherever you create or initialize the mapview, first attach the recognizer to it:
ReplyDeleteUILongPressGestureRecognizer *lpgr = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc]
initWithTarget:self action:@selector(handleLongPress:)];
lpgr.minimumPressDuration = 2.0; //user needs to press for 2 seconds
[self.mapView addGestureRecognizer:lpgr];
[lpgr release];
Then in the gesture handler:
- (void)handleLongPress:(UIGestureRecognizer *)gestureRecognizer
{
if (gestureRecognizer.state != UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan)
return;
CGPoint touchPoint = [gestureRecognizer locationInView:self.mapView];
CLLocationCoordinate2D touchMapCoordinate =
[self.mapView convertPoint:touchPoint toCoordinateFromView:self.mapView];
YourMKAnnotationClass *annot = [[YourMKAnnotationClass alloc] init];
annot.coordinate = touchMapCoordinate;
[self.mapView addAnnotation:annot];
[annot release];
}
YourMKAnnotationClass is a class you define that conforms to the MKAnnotation protocol. If your app will only be running on iOS 4.0 or later, you can use the pre-defined MKPointAnnotation class instead.
For examples on creating your own MKAnnotation class, see the sample apps WeatherMap and MapCallouts.
I have a UIImageView with a UILongPressGestureRecognizer attached that never seems to detect a long press gesture no matter how I configure the gesture recognizer.
