IOS set UIViewController.view.frame = CGCGRect(x: -200..) can not click button - ios

Question

I want put several UIViewController together:
leftViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: -200, y: 0.0, width: size.width/drawerSize, height: size.height)
// Center Drawer
centerViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: leftViewController.view.frame.width, y: 0.0, width: centerWidth, height: size.height)
// Right Drawer
rightViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: centerViewController.view.frame.origin.x + centerViewController.view.frame.size.width, y: 0.0, width: size.width/drawerSize, height: size.height)
In the first line I use
leftViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: -200, y....)
They will show correctly but I can not click buttons on leftViewController.
If
leftViewController.view.frame = CGRect(x: 0.0, y...)
then could click button but this layout is not I want.
The full code is posted by #Kevin Scardina Slide Sidebar Menu IOS 8 Swift
It now function as the picture below, And I'm trying to modify it like a slide menu bar which could hid left and right menu.
/*
To use simply instantiate NVMDrawerController as your root view in your AppDelegate, or in the
StoryBoard.
Once NVMDrawerController is instantiated, set the drawerSize of the NVMDrawerController,
and its leftViewControllerIdentifier, centerViewControllerIdentifier, and
rightViewControllerIdentifier to the Storyboard Identifier of the UIViewController
you want in the different locations.

When your view is outside of its superview,it can't receive any touch events.You should enumerate subviews in UIView(its superview) touchWithEvents function and make it receive the event.
