Question

I have a UIScrollView that contains a UITextView (not editable). I can’t make the UIScrollView gets the touch events, UITextView seems to get them and keep them . Any idea how to let UIScrollView gets the touch events?

I want UITextView to still be scrollable vertically (my UIScrollView is scrollable only horizontally).

In your UITextView subclass, do this:

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {     [self.nextResponder touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event]; } 

If you want UITextView to handle the touches too, then I believe you can do this:

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {     [self.nextResponder touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];     [super touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event]; } 

but it might result in really weird behavior.
