I'm trying to find the index of the selected button within my stack view. Currently, I'm trying to do this by using tags on my buttons. The end goal is for when the long press gesture is stopped whatever value the stack view is on is selected but currently, my case switch is printing out all the values, not the selected one. I'm using this instead of a collectionView or tableView because I find it much easier to implement animations.
Button Setup
let likeButton = UIButton(type: .system)
likeButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "blue_like").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
likeButton.tag = 0
let heartButton = UIButton(type: .system)
heartButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "red_heart").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
heartButton.tag = 1
let wowButton = UIButton(type: .system)
wowButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "surprised").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
wowButton.tag = 2
let laughButton = UIButton(type: .system)
laughButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "cry_laugh").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
laughButton.tag = 3
let sadButton = UIButton(type: .system)
sadButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "cry").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
sadButton.tag = 4
let angryButton = UIButton(type: .system)
angryButton.setImage(#imageLiteral(resourceName: "angry").withRenderingMode(.alwaysOriginal), for: .normal)
angryButton.tag = 5
let buttons = [likeButton, heartButton, wowButton, laughButton, sadButton, angryButton]
Long press gestured ended
else if gesture.state == .ended {
// clean up the animation
UIView.animate(withDuration: 0.5, delay: 0, usingSpringWithDamping: 1, initialSpringVelocity: 1, options: .curveEaseOut, animations: {
let stackView = self.iconsContainerView.subviews.first
stackView?.subviews.forEach({ (button) in
button.transform = .identity
switch button.tag {
case 0:
print("like button")
case 1:
print("Heart")
case 2:
print("Wow")
case 3:
print("Laugh")
case 4:
print("Sad")
case 5:
print("Angry")
default:
fatalError("Oops, this should not happen")
}
})
self.iconsContainerView.transform = self.iconsContainerView.transform.translatedBy(x: 0, y: 50)
self.iconsContainerView.alpha = 0
}, completion: { (_) in
self.iconsContainerView.removeFromSuperview()
})
}
