Keyboard and PickerView both are visible - iphone

Question

Im having 3 textfield in one i have implemented a UIPickerView and disable the keyboard using resignFirstResponder , but when i click on the other, both Keyboard and pickerview are visible .how do i sort this ?

Answer 1

create local instance of UIPickerView, and in delegate method of TextFiled textFieldDidBeginEditing check for visibility of UIPickerView, if it is Visible hide it
- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
if(![_pickerView isHidden])
{
[_pickerView setHidden:YES];
}
//...
}

Answer 2

set every UITextField's Delegate to self and then just put this method in your .m class.. In this code i just set frame of yourPickerView with 500 y point instead of that you can Hide the UIPickerView..
This code Hides UIPickerView with Animation like Keyboard..
UPDATE:
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
if (textField == TextField1) {
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.3];
CGRect frame = yourPickerView.frame;
frame.origin.y = 500;
yourPickerView.frame = frame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
return YES;
}
else if (textField == TextField2) {
[TextField1 resignFirstResponder];
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:NULL];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:0.3];
CGRect frame = yourPickerView.frame;
frame.origin.y = 107;
yourPickerView.frame = frame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
return NO;
}
return YES;
}

Answer 3

You need to know what to show exactly. You can use [self.view endEditing:YES]; in order to remove the keyboard when necessary, and implement your own method to hide the picker when needed.

Answer 4

Set the picker as the inputView for the textfield:
myTextField.inputView = self.myPickerView;
This way you don't need to handle the displaying of the keyboard/picker at all. It's all done for you.

Answer 5

Simplest Solution : inputView Property
yourTextField.inputView = self.yourPickerView;
Check the Documentation.

Answer 6

You need to Put this line First when you are going to Display the PickerView.
[self.view endEditing:YES];
Now after that PickerView Will open & focus will not be on the TextField after writing following line so what you need to do is Put Done Button over Picker & pass the Selected value of Picker to that TextField.
Try this Code:
- (void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)aTextField
{
if(txtVisitDate.isEditing == TRUE)
{
if ( [txtPlaceName isFirstResponder] )
{
[txtPlaceName resignFirstResponder];
}
[aTextField resignFirstResponder];
pickerViewPopup = [[UIActionSheet alloc] initWithTitle:nil delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil destructiveButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:nil];
pickerView = [[UIDatePicker alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 44, 0, 0)];
pickerView.datePickerMode = UIDatePickerModeDate;
pickerView.hidden = NO;
pickerView.date = [NSDate date];
UIToolbar *pickerToolbar = [[UIToolbar alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 44)];
pickerToolbar.barStyle = UIBarStyleBlackOpaque;
[pickerToolbar sizeToFit];
NSMutableArray *barItems = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
UIBarButtonItem *flexSpace = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemFlexibleSpace target:self action:nil];
[barItems addObject:flexSpace];
UIBarButtonItem *doneBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemDone target:self action:#selector(doneButtonPressed:)];
[barItems addObject:doneBtn];
UIBarButtonItem *cancelBtn = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithBarButtonSystemItem:UIBarButtonSystemItemCancel target:self action:#selector(cancelButtonPressed:)];
[barItems addObject:cancelBtn];
[pickerToolbar setItems:barItems animated:YES];
[pickerViewPopup addSubview:pickerToolbar];
[pickerViewPopup addSubview:pickerView];
[pickerViewPopup showInView:self.view];
[pickerViewPopup setBounds:CGRectMake(0,0,320, 475)];
}
}
Hope this will help.
