IOS: iPad keyboard always visible? - objective-c

In my application, I want the keyboard to always be visible in a view. I can do it with a textfield in this way:
[textField1 becomeFirstResponder]; //in viewWillAppear
but I don't have a text field explicitly in the view itself?

Hide the keyboard for UITextField in the same UIViewController with UISearchbarDisplayController

How can I hide the keyboard only for specific UITextFields?
I have a lot of UITextField in a View Controller, which has also a SearchbarDisplayController.
I tried to use this but it blocks the UISearchbarDisplayController's job.
Thank you.
For more detail:
For example I have 3 UITextFields and a searchbar display controller. If there is only UITextFields , while tapping out ofthe keyboard, the keyboard successfully disappear. But when I touch the searchbar, you know the keyboard is open and I enter some text to searchbar. So it gives me some results in searchresultstable of the searchbar. But I can't select any row from searchresultstable. Because the disapper keyboard blocks it.
it seems to me that in this tutorial this method has not been implemented, try to add it
-(void)searchBarSearchButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar {
[searchBar resignFirstResponder];
}

iOS7:editable textfield cells in tableview is not working properly

Editable textfield cells Tableview is causing problem on keyboard tab button everytime it is calling textfieldshouldbeginediting even if i am in first textfield it is not going to nextfield.
It is going to last textfield and if popover is availabe it will crash.How can i fix this so that if enter tab then it has to resign current responder in textfielddidendediting and it should not go to textfieldshouldbegin editing.
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
PickerViewController *selectOperatorController;
NSLog(#"tag %d",textField.tag);
return NO;
}
I also declared textfield delegates like didendediting and shouldendediting
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
activeField = nil;
if (self.chooseOperatorController) {
[self.chooseOperatorController dismissPopoverAnimated:YES];
}
return YES;
}
This is not as issue in iOS 6.But it is in iOS 7.
textfieldshouldbegin editing will not allow desktop keyboard tab button input,it cannot judge to move between the textfields.If we add textfielddidbeginediting we can move the controls,eventhough we have two methods we can move by using keyboard tab.So textfielddidbeginediting is mandatory if we want to move bewtween available textfields.

UITextField in aUIScrollView - inputView doesn't work

I have a UItextField in a UIScrollView. I assigned an inputView (a picker) on my UITextField but it doesn't work. When I click on my textfield, I get the keyboard instead of a picker. When I delete the UIScrollView it works well (I get the picker). Do you have any ideas? Thanks.
Edit (more clear): I have a UItextField in a UIScrollView. I call a method that shows a picker. But the method is never called when my textfield is in a scrollview and I get the keyboard. When I delete the UIScrollView, my method (show picker) is called and I get my picker.
In case you are already using the textfield delegate, try ...
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
[self openCustomPicker:self]; // Call your IBAction method
return NO; // Hide both keyboard and blinking cursor.
}
to prevent the UITextField from showing the keyboard.

Resize UIView and change subview position simultaneously

I have placed out a UIView with a UIButton as a subview in a ViewController in Interface Builder. I also have a UITextField where I have a action witch is triggered every time I type something in it. When I type something my view is supposed to get higher and the button should move to the bottom of the view. But when I type the first letter in the textfield the view resizes but the button doesn't move. When I type a second letter the button moves. Probably because the view is already resized. My question is how to get this to work simultaneously when typing the first letter in the textfield.
My code:
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:#selector(keyPressed:) name:UITextFieldTextDidChangeNotification object:textField];
- (void)keyPressed:(NSNotification*)notification{
view.frame = CGRectMake(view.frame.origin.x, view.frame.origin.y, view.frame.size.width, 200.0);
button.frame = CGRectMake(button.frame.origin.x, (view.frame.size.height-button.frame.size.height), button.frame.size.width, button.frame.size.height);
}
try to implement this method:
-(void)textFieldDidBeginEditing:(UITextField *)textField
{
// put your action here
}
Solved it by putting the button at the bottom of the view. Then when I resized the view the button followed along by staying at the bottom. I didn't need to programmatically move the button.

Show keyboard with a UIPopover

How can I show the keyboard when my popover shows up?
The popover is UIViewController that I call from a popoverController.
The popover has an UITextField and when the popover is displayed, the keyboard need to show up too and the cursor go to the UITextfield.
I tried to put the becomeFirstResponder under viewDidLoad or viewWillLoad, and not work.
[userValue becomeFirstResponder];
What I miss?
That's all folks. Thanks.
You need to make the textField the first responder, not the popover itself. Just because you make an object the first responder, doesn't mean it will show the keyboard. It needs to be an object with text entry properties, like a UITextField, to display the keyboard.
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated{
[_textField becomeFirstResponder];
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
}
You can call the method above if you want that particular textField to be the first responder, with keyboard, each time the popover is displayed. Remember, this method is called AFTER the popover is loaded.
Hope this helps.
Assign the first responder in the viewWillAppear method.
i think u didn't set the textfield delegates to self and trying putting breakpoints and check what is happening ,is it even going to textfield delegates or not.
