Hi I am still a beginner with Objective-C and am hoping someone can help me out. What I have created programmatically is a UIScrollView that has images inside that you can swipe across. Then I created a UIButton that when pressed is supposed to take a screenshot of the image subview the has been selected and then saves it to the camera roll (that part i'm not sure where to add in the code). The reason I want it to be a screenshot and not just the image is because I will later add UILabels on top of the images and I want those to appear in the saved screenshot as well. I am not quite sure which views to use in the saveWallpaper method and even if my current solution will work. I have looked at this answer Link to get the screenshot code to try for this implementation. Basically I want it to take a screenshot of everything besides the UIButton and save it to the camera roll. Any help or direction would be greatly appreciated. I could also try an approach where it takes a screenshot or captures certain elements and adds them together to be a single image. Thank you!
