Adding support for Apple Pencil double-taps
Adding support for the new Apple Pencil double-tap feature is super easy! All you have to do is to create a UIPencilInteraction, add it to a view, and implement one delegate method. Hopefully all pencil-compatible apps will soon adopt this.
let interaction = UIPencilInteraction()
interaction.delegate = self
view.addInteraction(interaction)
extension ViewController: UIPencilInteractionDelegate {
func pencilInteractionDidTap(_ interaction: UIPencilInteraction) {
// Handle pencil double-tap
}
}
