ios 8 - buttons in horizontal scroll view intercepting pan event - scroll does not work

Question

I have a horizontal scroll view with a line of buttons. The scroll view will not scroll unless I do an extremely fast swipe.

If I set the buttons to userInteractionE

I made a subclass of UIScrollView to fix this issue. You only need this method in it:

- (BOOL)touchesShouldBegin:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event inContentView:(UIView *)view
{
    UITouch *touch = [touches anyObject];

    if(touch.phase == UITouchPhaseMoved)
    {
        return NO;
    }
    else
    {
        return [super touchesShouldBegin:touches withEvent:event inContentView:view];
    }
}

Then just remember to set the class to your subclass in the storyboard if you're using one and you're good to go.
