Disable return key in UITextView - iphone

Question

I am trying to disable the return key found when typing in a UITextView. I want the text to have no page indents like found in a UITextField. This is the code I have so far:
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)aTextView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)aRange replacementText:(NSString*)aText
{
if ([aTextView.text isEqualToString:#"\r\n"]) {
return NO;
}
Any ideas?

Answer 1

Try to use like this..
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text {
if([text isEqualToString:#"\n"])
{
[textView resignFirstResponder];
return NO;
}
return YES;
}

Answer 2

Another solution without magic hardcoded strings will be:
- (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText: (NSString *)text {
if( [text rangeOfCharacterFromSet:[NSCharacterSet newlineCharacterSet]].location == NSNotFound ) {
return YES;
}
return NO;
}

In Swift 3+ add:
func textView(_ textView: UITextView, shouldChangeTextIn range: NSRange, replacementText text: String) -> Bool {
guard text.rangeOfCharacter(from: CharacterSet.newlines) == nil else {
// textView.resignFirstResponder() // uncomment this to close the keyboard when return key is pressed
return false
}
return true
}
Don't forget to add textView's delegate in order for this to be called

I know this is late reply but this code is perfect working for me.
This will disable return key initially until type any character.
textfield.enablesReturnKeyAutomatically = YES;
By Interface Builder set this property,
