Question

I have a UIScrollview in my app and I populate it with LOTS of UIImageViews approx 900. They are all very small and consist of only two different images over and over again.

Now I am having a lot of trouble detecting a touch on one of these UIImageViews.

I have assigned them all a unique TAG so as to be able to distinguish between them but I am really struggling to detect the touch.

The goal is just to be able to change the image of the touched UIImageView.

Due to the large amount of views involved a simple loop checking touch coordinates against each UIImageViews frame is just hanging my app.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in Advance.

The best way to solve this issue is to subclass UIScrollView, add touchesBegan etc methods to it.

@interface MyScroll : UIScrollView
 {

 }
