Question

I’m trying to overlay a transparent image over my app, with the purpose of explaining the controls of that view. When the UIImageView is first touched it should simply disappear. My MainViewController has the touchesBegan/Ended methods implemented and they work fine until I connect the UIImageView to an IBOutlet in MainViewController. Simply stop responding to events. What am I doing wrong?

-MainView
--ScrollView
--OtherView
--UIImageView (this is the overlay)

UIImageViews do not have user interaction turned on by default. If you want it on, either set the property via IB, User Interaction Enabled or via code…

[myImageView setUserInteractionEnabled:TRUE];
