I have a circular image which I am trying to rotate, so that the yellow and black striped circle stays under the user's finger and rotates in both directions. I have this so far:
- (void)handleJogShuttle:(UIPanGestureRecognizer *)recognizer {
UIView *shuttle = [recognizer view];
if ([recognizer state] == UIGestureRecognizerStateBegan ||
[recognizer state] == UIGestureRecognizerStateChanged) {
[recognizer view].transform = CGAffineTransformRotate([[recognizer view] transform],M_PI / 20.0f);
[recognizer setTranslation:CGPointZero inView:[shuttle superview]];
}
}

Also, currently, the slightest movement can cause the view to rotate in a full circle, which is obviously not desired.

I suspect this method gets called A LOT. Try using NSLog
and check how many time it does.
Anyway, you are not calculating the angle properly, you could try using
-(CGPoint)translationInView:(UIView *)view
from the recognizer to calculate the correct angle to rotate.
