iOS: hide/disable new iOS bottom bar - ios

There is anyway to hide or disable the new iOS 9 bottom bar on iPad?

You can use the following property on TextFields and TextAreas to hide this new actions bar:

Isn't that just the keyboard toolbar? I'm guessing you're running it on the iOS simulator which often errors and doesn't show the keyboard but will still show the toolbar. If you hide the keyboard (blur all text input capable UI elements) the toolbar hides as well.

According to the iOS guide the toolbar "Can hide when the keyboard appears, the user makes a gesture, or when the containing view controller transitions to a vertically compact environment." So, A real device test would demonstrate the behavior.

Flutter: How to show onscreen keyboard without android's bottom navigation bar on focusing a textfield?

If you focus a TextField the system overlays will accompany the onscreen keyboard despite calling SystemChrome.setEnabledSystemUIOverlays([]) before and immediately after the focus change happened. Any way to change that?
For Clarity: I am referring to the onscreen bottom navigation bar that is provided by android when phones have no physical buttons. In flutter, when you tap on a textfield, the onscreen keyboard comes up, and with it this navigation bar is being forced in. I'd like to hide it, because it's sometimes unnecessary.
AFAIK, You can't hide it. This is the default system behavior (you can't change it) to show the navigation bar when on screen keyboard is visible to the user.
It is provided so that the user can press the back button from the navigation bar in order to hide the Keyboard. So, it will stay there forever as long as keyboard is visible to the user.

Bottom layout guide prevents interaction with the uitoolbar which is exchanged with the uitabbar

I am trying to make it possible to exchange the tab bar with the tool bar on iOS when the UITableView enters the editing mode.
However, when I set the
func updateBottomBar() {
tabBarController?.tabBar.isHidden = isInEditMode
actionToolBar.isHidden = !isInEditMode
}
, everything displays correct, however I can not interact with the toolbar. It seems like it is under the bottom layout guide, and the touches cant pass through. I tried bumping the toolbar.layer.zposition to 100, didnt work.
Note: if I programatically reposition the ToolBar to be a little bit higher, then exactly the portion of the ToolBar which is above the top of now hidden TabBar will be okay to interact with. Say i put the ToolBar 20points higher, then the 20 top points of the ToolBar allow me to press the buttons, and the bottom part doesn't allow.
I have:
extended edges under bottom bar disabled
Hides bottom bar on push disabled
user interaction enabled
right now. Changing those didn't give any success.
One possible issue could be your userInteraction of your custom tabbar being set to false.
You can do that directly in the your storyboard by opening the attribute inspector on your ActionToolBar
Also, to confirm you don't have any invisible view on top of your custom toolbar, you can use debug the view hierarchy when running on your simulator:

How to mimic iOS Control Center behaviour

I'd like to mimic the iOS Control Center behaviour. I have a button in the bottom of my screen, and I'd like to reveal a second view controller as the user slides from that button to the top.
The behaviour is also similiar to the iOS and the Android status bar. What's the best solution to achieve this?

iOS Partial Keyboard Display

Is it possible to display only the part of the keyboard in iOS 7? For example, I would like to display the keyboard, but I do not want the space bar visible. How would I add the keyboard to display the portion of the keyboard above the space bar?
Research has confirmed that it is not possible to adjust the frame of the keyboard.

Search bar partially disappears when switching views in iOS 7

We have a UISearchBar backed by a UISearchDisplayController in our app. Changing screens with the search bar hidden partway under the header causes that portion of the bar to be gone when the user returns, revealing the search bar's background. Here, I have it set to red which shows me that the search frame size and position are still correct.
Tapping anywhere inside the bar brings up the keyboard as expected. However, once the bar moves to the top of the screen, the part that was hidden stops responding to input. This blocks text selection and taps to the top of the Cancel button.
I have experimented with all of the answers in this question without success, so I think our issue is different, though likely related. Does anyone know what's going on, and how we can fix it? Thanks for your input.
If you are running on iOS 7.0 version then you need to set following property which is newly introduced in iOS 7.0 as follows
self.edgesForExtendedLayout = UIRectEdgeNone;
as by default edgesForExtendedLayout property is set to UIRectEdgeAll that means the view controllers use full-screen layout by default. And your's searchbar appeared to be rendered behind the navigation bar, starting from navigation bar offset.
