add popview as subview, code is:

//!you must define the dimBackgroundView and set view in head file firstly, 

//action for a button,to add set view as a subview
 - (IBAction)openSetting:(id)sender {

    if(!dimBackgroundView)
    {
       dimBackgroundView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
    }
    dimBackgroundView.backgroundColor = [[UIColor clearColor] colorWithAlphaComponent:0.0];

    [self.view addSubview:dimBackgroundView];

    SettingViewController *set = [[SettingViewController alloc]initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
    [set.view setFrame:CGRectMake(120, 50, 400, 600)];
    self.setView = set;

    //add shadow
    set.view.layer.shadowOffset = CGSizeMake(3, 3);
    set.view.layer.shadowColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:70.0/255.0 green:70.0/255.0 blue:80.0/255.0 alpha:1.0].CGColor;
    set.view.layer.shadowOpacity = 0.8;

    [self.view addSubview:set.view];
}
//check touch position, if touch position is outside of setview, remove it from superview
- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *) event{
    UITouch *touch = [[event allTouches] anyObject];
    if ([self.setView.view superview] && self.dimBackgroundView == touch.view) {
        [self.dimBackgroundView removeFromSuperview];
        [self.setView.view removeFromSuperview];
    }
}

Solved this by using UIView and also by overriding the hitTest in the main rootViewController's view to see if the touch point is outside that view. If so, the event will be consumed to dismiss the new popover, otherwise the event will be forwarded to the new popover.
