When my background is blocked, I still have the view on the top 😶 but nothing is visible.

Do you have a case that reproduces this issue? I'm not sure what would be going wrong here. At the very least, you should be able to remove that view yourself.

[NeerajaReddyKomma]

As soon as we tap on target view, screen gets blocked i mean untouchable. So we can't perform any further actions. Either we should close app and reopen it or we should finish and recreate activity.

Not enough Info but: can it be that you overwrite the onTargeClick Listener Method? If so, then the isInteractable Boolean is set false and never set true again, all further onClick actions get ignored.

In my case this happens mostly in RecyclerView ViewHolder.
Here are the steps to generate test case:
step 1: Show tapTargetView for view A in row R10. ( This will work properly )
step 2: Show tapTargetView for view B in row R10 (or any other row). ( Here code to display tapTargetView will execute properly, but tapTargetView will not be displayed and app goes untappable. )

Finally I've handled this issue with below little updates...

1. Update ViewUtil > onLaidOut method as below :

static void onLaidOut(final View view, final Runnable runnable) {

        if (isLaidOut(view)) {
            runnable.run();
            return;
        }

        if (view.getWidth() > 0 && view.getHeight() > 0) {

            runnable.run();

        } else {

            final ViewTreeObserver observer = view.getViewTreeObserver();

            observer.addOnGlobalLayoutListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnGlobalLayoutListener() {
                @Override
                public void onGlobalLayout() {

                    final ViewTreeObserver trueObserver;

                    if (observer.isAlive()) {
                        trueObserver = observer;
                    } else {
                        trueObserver = view.getViewTreeObserver();
                    }

                    removeOnGlobalLayoutListener(trueObserver, this);

                    runnable.run();
                }
            });
        }
    }

2. Update TapTargetView > setOnClickListener as below :

setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
            @Override
            public void onClick(View v) {
                if (listener == null || outerCircleCenter == null || !isInteractable) {
                    dismiss(false);
                    return;
                }
            ...........
           ............ other code as it is....
            }
        });

It seems like onTargetClick is being overridden and the overridden implementation is not calling super, and so the view is never dismissed. If you are going to override onTargetClick then you need to ensure you dismiss the view.

Closing now, if there is new info or if this is not the case then please open a new issue.
