Can't override "hitTest" method for UIScrollView

Question

I've created a scroll view, width less than the screen width and set clipsToBounds=YES. As the UIScrollView doesn't scroll from anywhere outside the range of its frame, I put the UIScrollview inside a UIView and tried to override the "(UIView *)hitTest:WithEvent:" method. But it always shows warning pointInside method not found (or something like that) in the if ([self pointInside:point withEvent:event]) line and it doesn't work. What did I do wrong? Thanks in advance...

Answer 1

Answering my own question, the problem is I didn't create the UIVIew subclass to override the (UIView *)hitTest:WithEvent: while the UIScrollView was in a subview of self.view. So, it is important to check which view inherits the scroll view and write overridden method in the parent view class.

You have to change the ScrollView's contentSize in order to allow the ScrollView to scroll. It will only scroll it the contentSize.x is bigger than scrollview.size.x and/or contentSize.y bigger than scrollview.size.y.
