Show taps in a SFSafariViewController

[davidgeilfus]

Hi, how can I visualize taps in a SFSafariViewController that is presented programmatically from another view controller? Will I have to use WKWebView instead?

Hey! Good question. Just tried and looks like somehow SFSafariViewController doesn't process taps in a window the same way as regular view controllers. I'll have a look into this and see if there's something I can do, maybe I'll have to swizzle SFSafariViewController or something.

Thanks for letting me know! WKWebView should work but it's more of a pain to set up.

Great, thank you very much for the quick answer and the help! Indeed, I'd prefer to avoid having to build a browser “from scratch” using WKWebView if possible. ;)

Sorry I realise this has been sitting here for a while. Trying to keep on top of everything and move house has been a challenge!

So, upon first investigation it appears that SFSafariViewController touch events don't cause the UIWindow it's contained in to receive sendEvent, which is what ShowTime uses. I'll see if there's a way around it.
