Spotlight needs passthrough views
Opened this issue · 2 comments
As it is currently written, tapping on a control that is highlighted just dismisses the overlay--it does not allow the touch to register with the highlighted item. Some hit detection should be implemented, allowing the highlighted view to "pass through". It is confusing to focus the user on a control but not allow them to use that control.
i've made a branch to first test if this could suffice for the functionality you note.

Look at the example and see the new protocol method that allows a touch to "pass though":
-(BOOL) hintStateShouldAllowTouchPassedThrough:(id)hintState touch:(UITouch*)touch;
Awesome. Working for me so far. Will test this on a more complex view hierarchy--one using nested container view controllers that correctly places a UIPopoverController. Might be useful to replicate their API, allowing an array of passthrough views, but I like what you seem to be doing, which is simply setting a flag whether or not to allow pass through of the highlighted items.
