I have a UITableView that I want to have respond to taps and vertical swipes, but still have something like userInteractionEnabled = NO for horizontal swipes. By that I mean, it would not handle touches and pass the touch event back to its superview.

Things I've tried that didn't work:

  • returning NO in - (BOOL)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView canEditRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath

  • Overriding touchesBegan/touchesMoved/touchesEnded and passing the event to the next responder

  • Adding gesture recognizers for horizontal swipes and setting cancelsTouchesInView to YES

I've been trying to fix this on and off for several weeks, so any help is greatly appreciated!
