I have a problem with the UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput. I get my Alert with the textfield but there is no Keyboard coming up..? Here is my code:
UIAlertView *enter = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Highscores" message:#"Please Enter Your Name" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Okay" otherButtonTitles:#"Abbrechen" nil];
enter.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;
UITextField *theTextField = [enter textFieldAtIndex:0];
theTextField.placeholder = #"Your Name";
theTextField.keyboardAppearance = UIKeyboardAppearanceAlert;
theTextField.selected = NO;
[enter show];
I have tried without the
UITextField *theTextField = [enter textFieldAtIndex:0];
theTextField.placeholder = #"Your Name";
theTextField.keyboardAppearance = UIKeyboardAppearanceAlert;
theTextField.selected = NO;
part but still there is no keyboard coming up.
(I've tested it on my device and on the simulator)
Do you have any ideas about that?
thank you in advance.
I had the problem because I was triggering the alert when a UITextField delegate method textFieldDidBeginEditing was called in my view and then I would fill this with the content of the Alert view text field. That meant that the UITextField in my view became first responder and I couldn't find a way to resign. So if you have the problem it is because something else is becoming first responder before the UIAlert is displayed. Think about how you trigger the alert.
I resigned to using a tap gesture on my UITextField which then triggers the UIAlertView with UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput and it works fine.
Some code below:
-(void)addTextFieldToView{
UITextField *textField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 200, 31)];
textField.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
textField.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyleRoundedRect;
textField.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
UITapGestureRecognizer *tapGestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(showAlertWithTextField:)];
[textField addGestureRecognizer:tapGestureRecognizer];
[self.view addSubview:textField];
}
-(void)showAlertWithTextField:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)gesture{
UIAlertView* dialog = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Title" message:#"Message" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:#"OK",nil];
[dialog setAlertViewStyle:UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput];
[dialog show];
}
Try below code:
UIAlertView *message = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Your name?"
message:nil
delegate:nil
cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel"
otherButtonTitles:#"OK", nil];
[message setAlertViewStyle:UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput];
[message show];
Works on iOS5
Might fix your problem as it solved mine:
[enter resignFirstResponder];

Clicking on ok or cancel button in UIAlertview is not working fine. When I am clicking ok or cancel button, UIAlertview is not dismissed but if i clicking twice on ok or cancel button then and only then UIAlertview get dismissed.
This is my code.
alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Plese Enter comma seperated sets"
message:#"\n"
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel"
otherButtonTitles:#"Save", nil] ;
CGRect rect = {12, 60, 260, 25};
dirField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:rect] ;
dirField.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
alert.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;
dirField.text = setString;
[dirField setText:#"test"];
[dirField becomeFirstResponder];
[alert addSubview:dirField];
[alert show];

I think there is problem in your method , I mean it is calling 2 times.
Thanks
I have created AlertView with TextField using this code:
UIAlertView * alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:#"The person you selected does not have an email address on file. Please enter their email address below." delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:#"Cancel",#"Submit",nil];
alert.tag = 1;
alert.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;
UITextField * alertTextField = [alert textFieldAtIndex:0];
alertTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress;
alertTextField.placeholder = #"Enter Email address";
[alert show];
It display fine and open keyboard in ios 6 or latter but not in ios 5.
Here is my device screenshot which run on ios 5.1
I have tried your code and its does not show keyboard in iOS 5 as you said but i have just added resignFirstResponder in your textField after alert show and its worked. Here is the code,
UIAlertView * alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:#"The person you selected does not have an email address on file. Please enter their email address below." delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:nil otherButtonTitles:#"Cancel",#"Submit",nil];
alert.tag = 1;
alert.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStylePlainTextInput;
UITextField * alertTextField = [alert textFieldAtIndex:0];
// assert(alertTextField);
alertTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress;
alertTextField.placeholder = #"Enter Email address";
[alert show];
[alertTextField resignFirstResponder];
And if you don't want to resignFirstResponder in iOS 6 and later than put this code at the end of your code instead of resignFirstResponder code than textField only resignFirstResponder for iOS version less than 6.0
float currentVersion = 6.0;
if ([[[UIDevice currentDevice] systemVersion] floatValue] < currentVersion)
{
[alertTextField resignFirstResponder];
}
Along with
UITextField * alertTextField = [alert textFieldAtIndex:0];
alertTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress;
you also write
alertTextField.delegate = self;
And in your header file (i.e. .h), pass textfield delegate like <UITextFieldDelegate>
try with different keyboardTypes like UIKeyboardTypeDefault, UIKeyboardTypePhonePad, etc.
Also try [alertTextField setUserInteractionEnabled:YES];
alertTextField.delegate = self;
then in the delegate method,
-(void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField {
NSLog(#"textFieldDidBeginEditing method was called");
if (!self.window.isKeyWindow) {
[self.window makeKeyAndVisible];
}
}
not pretty sure, but hope this works for you..
try this it is run on ios 5
CGRect textFieldFrame = CGRectMake(15.0f, 105.0f, 255.0f, 31.0f);
UITextField *txtYourTextField = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:textFieldFrame];
txtYourTextField.placeholder = #"Your String";
txtYourTextField.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
txtYourTextField.textColor = [UIColor blackColor];
txtYourTextField.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:14.0f];
txtYourTextField.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyleRoundedRect;
txtYourTextField.clearButtonMode = UITextFieldViewModeWhileEditing;
txtYourTextField.returnKeyType = UIReturnKeyDefault;
txtYourTextField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardTypeEmailAddress;
txtYourTextField.delegate=self;
txtYourTextField.contentVerticalAlignment = UIControlContentVerticalAlignmentCenter;
txtYourTextField.tag = 1;
txtYourTextField.autocapitalizationType = UITextAutocapitalizationTypeNone;
UIAlertView *alert=[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:nil message:#"The person you selected does not have an email address on file. Please enter their email address below.\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:#"Send",nil];
alert.tag=1;
[alert addSubview:txtYourTextField];
[alert show];
Hope this helps you!!!
when I add textview on alertview, the scollview is shown on top and behind of it the text is drawn,how to overcome this problem. Here is the code
question updated:
If the set textView.editable = NO; it work's fine but in my case i need to type the text in textview.
UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(12, 50, 260, 50)];
[textView setText:#"lashdasjh asdasjdas asdlajsdl adsjajadsd aslj daj sdjasdjasjdlasjd as dlasj d"];
UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:#"Type Your Message" message:#"\n\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:#"Send",nil];
av.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStyleDefault;
[av addSubview:textView];
[av show];
Resolved mySelf. Remove the #"\n\n\n\n\n\n" in message and add #"\n\n\n\n\n\n" in title
This doesn't work anymore on IOS7, but using https://github.com/wimagguc/ios-custom-alertview will help you get it done pretty well
replace your code with this code its work fine.
UITextView *textView = [[UITextView alloc]initWithFrame:CGRectMake(12, 50, 260, 100)];
UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:#"Type Your Message" message:#"\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Cancel" otherButtonTitles:#"Send",nil];
av.alertViewStyle = UIAlertViewStyleDefault;
[av addSubview:textView];
[av show];
I am creating an application where i need to create two UITextField or TextBox for User id and password inside a UIAlertView for User login.I have tried something but here the textfield created becomes very big and almost cover the whole alert view.Please somebody help me how to organize the textfield and labels etc inside the alert view. I need like - there should be a small textfield against the label "User Id" and "Password". So how to do that? please help me. Thanx in advance.
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"User Login" message:#"Please Enter the Following \n\n\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Close" otherButtonTitles:#"Sign In", nil];
UILabel *lblUserName = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(20, 70, 85, 21)];
lblUserName.tag =2;
//lblUserName.backgroundColor = [UIColor darkGrayColor];
lblUserName.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15.0];
lblUserName.text = #"User Name:";
lblUserName.textColor=[UIColor whiteColor];
//[lblUserName setFont:[UIFont fontWithName:#"TimesNewRomanPS-boldMT" size:8]];
lblUserName.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
[alert addSubview:lblUserName];
UITextField *txtUserName;
//if(txtUserName==nil)
txtUserName = [[UITextField alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(89, 50, 160, 30)];
txtUserName.tag = 3;
txtUserName.borderStyle = UITextBorderStyleBezel;
txtUserName.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
txtUserName.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:12.0];
txtUserName.placeholder = #"User ID";
[alert addSubview:txtUserName];
alert.tag=3;
[alert show];
[alert release];
As of iOS5, UIAlertView supports a login screen using the Alert Style UIAlertViewStyleLoginAndPasswordInput.
More information in the UIAlertView Class Reference
UIAlertView *alert =[UIAlertView alloc] init];
alert.delegate =self //make sure to add the UIAertViewDelegate in the .h file
alert.alertViewStyle =UIAlertViewStyleLoginAndPasswordInput;
alert.message =#"Please login";
[alert show];
[alert release];
Then in the clickedButtonAtIndex delegate method:
{
UITextField *username = [alertView textFieldAtIndex:0];
UITextfield *password = [alertView textFieldAtIndex:1];
NSLog(#"Username %"# password %"#,username.text, password.text);
}
I have an UIAlertView with UITextView.
on ViewDidAppear I do [textView setText:] with a large text, but the alert shows an empty textView, and only after I touch the textView to scroll, the text appears.
What should I do in order to make the text appear in the textView in the alert, without scrolling it to "refresh" it?
Thanks!
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:#"Terms of Service" message:#"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:#"Disagree" otherButtonTitles:#"Agree",nil];
UITextView *myTextView = [[UITextView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(12, 50, 260, 142)];
[myTextView setTextAlignment:UITextAlignmentCenter];
[myTextView setEditable:NO];
myTextView.layer.borderWidth = 2.0f;
myTextView.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor darkGrayColor] CGColor];
myTextView.layer.cornerRadius = 13;
myTextView.clipsToBounds = YES ;
[myTextView setText:#"LONG LONG TEXT"];
[av addSubview:myTextView];
[myTextView release];
[av setTag:1];
[av show];
}
This is because you have initially set message as #"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n" for UIAlertView. Set your UITextView first and then set UIAlertView's message as textView's text.
Add \n characters in place of message in alert view . Then create a UILabel add add to alert view. Like this
UIAlertView * alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#\n\n\n", #"Title"] message:#"\n" delegate:self cancelButtonTitle:NEVER_DISPLAY_BUTTON_TEXT otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert addButtonWithTitle:#"Text"];
[alert addButtonWithTitle:#"Text"];
[alert addButtonWithTitle:#"Text"];
[alert addButtonWithTitle:#"Text"];
[alert show];
newTitle = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(10,-55,252,230)];
newTitle.numberOfLines = 0;
newTitle.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:15];
newTitle.textAlignment = UITextAlignmentCenter;
newTitle.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
newTitle.textColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
newTitle.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",self.message];
[alert addSubview:newTitle];
You might need to adjust size of Uilable to match in your alert view.
Try with this:
UIAlertView *av = [[UIAlertView alloc]initWithTitle:#"Terms of Service"
message:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%# \n\n\n",myTextView.text]
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:#"Disagree"
otherButtonTitles:#"Agree",nil
];
