I have a simple Mac app with a window. In this window, I have two NSTextfields and one NSButton.
When the window appears, the first NSTextfield has the focus. I press enter and the focus passes to the second NSTextfield. I press enter again and the focus passes to my button.
[myWindow makeFirstResponder:myButton];
This works fine but now when I press enter again, I expect that the button is clicked, but it does not happen.
On a Mac, spacebar is what you press to select a button. This is the same for a selecting the value of a dropdown, radio button, or check button.

I am trying to write an application to show a popup whenever a user clicks on a textfield in any window. With the FocusIn event I was able to capture window focus, but not the textfield focus. Is it feasible to capture textfield focus with X11? If no, what alternates do I have, to capture textfield focus and maybe get properties of the textfield if possible?
Assume you have a Form with ten Buttons on it, with the first one having the focus, so that it can be clicked by hitting the Enter key on the keyboard. Now, you can set the focus to the next button simply by pressing the Down arrow key. This works out of the box.
Then I constrain this functionality to the first three Buttons on the Form.
So, when the third Button on the Form has the focus and I press the Down arrow key, the first Button - instead of the forth button - should receive the focus.
Question:
how can I change the focus to another button outside the Panel with arrow key?
I have an application which has a button on the first window, once pressed this button should hide and perform an action, to hide the button i'm using this code:
[self.myButton setHidden:TRUE];
This works fine until I have multiple windows - new instances of this window do not have this button it's hidden by default. However when I create a new window and press the myButton on the first window it doesn't hide the button.
Furthermore if I create a new window and then close that window and press the myButton on the first and now only window it crashes.
Any ideas how to overcome this?
myButton is pointing to the button in the last window you opened
I have working on implementing sign up screen, and there are three input fields and custom gender selection buttons below them. Now when first field becomes first responder then "Next" button is shown in the right bottom keyboard. Pressing "Next" moves to the second field, and the pressing it again moves to the third field and shows "Done".
I need to override and show "Next" instead "Done", so that a user could press it, I would close keyboard and scroll the screen a little bit so he would see he needs to select gender. Just trying to figure out what causes to show "Done" on last textField.
Try this one :
[textField setReturnKeyType:UIReturnKeyDone];
How can i show toolbar with "Next" and "Previous" buttons on top of the keyboard on iPad like in ShareKit(when logging in)? I have many of text fields, and i need switching between this text fields by using toolbar buttons
Design your toolbar however you prefer, then set it to the InputAccessoryView property of the UITextField whose keyboard it should accompany. It will be automatically displayed above the keyboard whenever it appears.
