# preciseLocation(in:)

Returns a precise location for the touch, when available.

## Declaration

```swift
func preciseLocation(in view: UIView?) -> CGPoint
```

## Parameters

- `view`: The view that contains the touch.

## Mentioned in

Implementing coalesced touch support in an app

## Return Value

Return Value A precise location for the touch.

## Discussion

Discussion Use this method to get additional precision for a touch (when available). Do not use the returned point for hit testing. In some cases, hit testing can indicate that the touch is within a view, but hit testing against the more precise location may indicate that the touch is outside of the view.
