Detect when a user clicks the paste button in a UITextView

Question

I am having quite a issue trying to change the cut/copy/paste behavior of the UITextView. What I want to achieve is: detect when the user has pasted some text

Answer 1

UITextView has a view that handles the cut, copy, paste. It's UIWebDocumentView. So if UITextView is the first responder, UIWebDocumentView will get it first instead of your implementation. I would like to overwrite these functions so this is very frustrating.
