iPad landscape-only app not responding to touches near the bottom of the screen

[AndrewCr]

Hi, I’m an experienced developer, but relatively new to iOS.

I’m having some trouble with an iPad App, where my views are not responding to button touches in the bottom third of the screen. Touches on other buttons are working fine, so I know my views are getting hooked up properly when they’re loaded (I’ve created them in IB.) I get the same behavior on both the simulator and the device.

This is a landscape-orientation-only App, and I’m loading views using [NSBundle LoadNibNamed:]. This was the only non-trivial portion of the App, and I think I’ve jumped through all the appropriate hoops:

• Added Initial Interface Orientation line to my .plist
• Designed my views in Landscape orientation in IB
• Added shouldAutoRotateToInterfaceOrientation to my top-level view that only return YES for landscape orientations

The landscape orientation may not be related, but I thought I should mention it, since it was the only thing I found a little wonky to build, and I see from the boards that other people have found this problematic as well. I'm pretty sure my view's bounds are right because I can see the buttons.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks.

BTW, I've also posted this to Stack Overflow

Hi!

The problem is that the UIWindow could still have the portrait mode size and so no events will be passed to the views in the window.

It turns out my view's bounds were set to the full screen, but the frame was not. By explicitly setting the frame, I was able to get this working.

Thanks for the input!

Hi all,

same problem for me too, my problem is in Portrait orientation mode.

working fine on landscape, but Portrait it is not working.
