camera overlay picture

Update

I've updated it now and tried to replicate what you've done in your question. I've included full source of .h/.m and [email protected]. Create a new project and paste the source into the files and add [email protected]. Everything is done programmatically - you don't need to set anything up in interface builder other than embedding your view in a navigation controller.

Here is [email protected] - https://i.sstatic.net/pDcoo.png

This is what it looks like when I run it.

Does this satisfy your app requirements?
