Print name of view catching click event on Android

So I have a stack of views, some of them are transparent, and Im not sure which one is preventing the click event to fire on the view it is supposed to. Is there a way of printing on the terminal the name/id of the view that is catching the click event?. (Already used the "show layout bounds" option on the developer tools, did not help me)

Thanks!

You could use the tag of each view to set a distinct text and in your OnClickListener you could log the tag like 

new View.OnClickListener() {

    public void onClick(View v) {
        Log.i("Clicked View", v.getTag())
    }
};

EDIT:

Note that when you have a transparent view (alpha = 0) it can still catch click events. Set a view's visibility to View.GONE to disable the OnClickListener
