Question

I need to add some numbers / text, programmatically so it shows on top of an image I have specified for several UIImageViews. Also my users are able to drag the image view around the screen. I need the text to move at the same time. To move the image views I use this code..

-(void)touchesMoved:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {

for (id football in multipleFootballs) {
    UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];
    if ([touch view] == football) {
        CGPoint pt = [[touches anyObject] locationInView:football];
        CGRect frame = [football frame];
        frame.origin.x += pt.x - startLocation.x;
        frame.origin.y += pt.y - startLocation.y;      
        [football setFrame:frame];
    }
  }
}

Just about any UIView or UIView descendent can be added to any other UIView as a subview. So you could create a UILabel with your text and add it as a subview to your UIImageViews using an appropriate CGRect for the UILabel‘s frame to position it where you want it in your UIImageView.
