UIView touchesBegan:withEvent: respond AND forward

I have a UIView overlaying a UIViewController. I want to receive all touches and hide the view but still have all underlying controls respond as per usual.

I am using touchesBegan:withEvent: and receiving the touches no problem.

I can forward the touches using pointInside:withEvent:.

However I can't receive and foward at the same time, is this possible?

Solution

  • Yes - I landed up putting the a call to my method inside the pointInside:withEvent: method before returning. It now picks up all touches underneath the view and performs my method.
