Get Touch Event on entire screen

Question

I have a disappearing header which I want to bring back into the view on a single tap anywhere on the screen. But if I am wrapping the entire <View> inside a <TouchableX> component the PanResponder stops working. Is there a hack around this?

Answer 1

You do not need to warp it with Touchable component.

Add next props to root View.

onResponderGrant - make View handle touch

onStartShouldSetResponder - make View handle start
