iPhone UIControl and Subview

Question

I currently have a UIControl, which has a number of subviews (image, label).

Unfortunately when I use addTarget etc. It doesn't detect touches on the subviews.

  [myCustomView addTarget:self action:@selector(touchedView:)
             forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];

Is it possible for the UIControl to detect touches on subviews or should i be approaching it differently.

Answer 1

Just note that all subviews of a UIControl which shouldn't receive touch events themselves must have userInteractionEnabled set to NO and not YES (which is the default).

So you must set this on all labels, images, etc.

I just ran into this and figured it out after a while :)
