Drag UIVIew relative to finger

Question

I have a little problem. I have some UIView and I'm able to drag them with methods touchesBegan and touchesMoved.

My problem is my UIView's coordinates (0,0) is coming under my finger. I would like to avoid that.

Do you know how to do that. I try some things but with no success :(

Thanks a lot !

It will depend on the size of the view but you can probably set the center property to your touch's location.

Animating the center to your tap location

[UIView animateWithDuration:0.25f
                      delay:0.0f
                    options:(UIViewAnimationOptionBeginFromCurrentState|UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseInOut)
                 animations:^{
                     theView.center = tapLocation;
                 }
                 completion:NULL]

Instead of just moving the location or translating it, you can animate the view to your current touch in all touches* methods.
