Adding TabGestureRecognizer to TextField
All my UiTextFields are created programmatically so i can't just right-click-pull-over the onTab function to the swift file.
I tried to add a gesture recognizer to the text field, but now I have to DOUBLE-click so clickTextField() is triggered.
// make clickable
let clickName = MyTapGesture(target: self, action: #selector(ViewMain.clickTextField(_:)))
clickName.count_of_selection = String(i)
self.finishName[i].addGestureRecognizer(clickName)
How can I make it so that this works with one click. A different approach maybe?

UITextField has a tap gesture. You need to use it's delegate methods:
func textFieldShouldBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField)
func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField)
func textFieldShouldEndEditing(_ textField: UITextField)
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ textField: UITextField)
func textFielShouldClear(_ textField: UITextField)
func textFielShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField)
Do not forget
yourTextField.delegate = self
after you create an extension for you vc:
extension ViewController: UITextFieldDelegate {
// here you add the necessary delegate methods for your textFields
}
Note: You do not need to implement every method. Use only the one you need. More details can be found on AppleDeleveloper .

try setting a tag value to each UITextField to be able to deferenciate between them.
For example :
var iter = 0 //Defaults auto-incrementation
let textField = UITextField()
textField.frame = CGRect(x: 20, y: y, width: Int(UIScreen.main.bounds.width-40), height:50)
textField.placeholder = title + " :"
//Setting the tag
textField.tag = iter
//Setting the controller as delegate to UITextField
textField.delegate = self
//AddSubview
self.view.addSubview(textField)
//Auto-incrementation
iter += 1
You need also to make use of UITextField delegate methods :
//TODO: Declare textFieldDidBeginEdditing here :
func textFieldDidBeginEditing(_ activeTextField: UITextField) {
//Code
}
//TODO: Declare textFieldDidEndEditing here :
func textFieldDidEndEditing(_ activeTextField: UITextField) {
//Code
}
it depends on your needs you can use more or less methods. Good Luck.
