    Try rearranging your init method a little:

    - (id)initWithImages:(NSArray *)inImages 
    { 
    
     initialDistance = 1; 
     unitDistance = 1; 
    
    // remove these
    // [self setMultipleTouchEnabled:YES]; 
    // self.multipleTouchEnabled = YES; 
    
     if (self = [super initWithFrame:CGRectZero]) 
     { 
      mImages = [inImages retain]; 
    
      NSUInteger imageCount=[inImages count]; 
                 ImageVal=imageCount; 
      if (imageCount > 0) 
      { 
       mCurrentImageView = [self createImageView:0]; 
       [self addSubview:mCurrentImageView]; 
       result=nil; 
    
       if (imageCount > 1) 
       { 
        mRightImageView = [self createImageView:1]; 
        [self addSubview:mRightImageView]; 
        result=nil; 
       } 
    
      } 
    
      self.opaque = YES; 
      self.backgroundColor = [UIColor blackColor]; 
      self.autoresizingMask = UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight; 
    
      // move to here after the init on super is done
      self.multipleTouchEnabled = YES;
     } 
     return self; 
    }
    

    Calling init on the super probably undoes your efforts to set it beforehand.
