I use a floating popover to present suggestions in my UI. When the user wants to select an item from the menu bar in the splitview controller, the first tap just dismisses the popover. Therefore, the user has to tap twice, to activate a menu item.

If the user wants to activate the trash can, he has to tap it twice. Once to dismiss the other popover, and once to activate the trash can.
What’s the best way to avoid this?
Wild guess here – but perhaps
passThroughViews– add the button view and then in the button action, dismiss the popover (need to determine if it is active). A bit hacky but could work.
