when selecting a text field on a uiwebview the keyboard isn't visible.
i check the keyboard frame when getting the notice that the keyboard will appear. there IS a frame.
i think it has something to do with the constraints i have to do the layout of the views.
what is the correct (most simple) way to adjust those constraints (if that is indeed the issue) to "make room" for the keyboard?
curiously the little bar that typically appears with the keyboard is visible ... the one that looks like this :
| < > Done |
this is getting frustrating so any help is appreciated as usual :)
i should probably add that the setup i have is a uiscrollview that contains uiwebviews. the scrolling is turned off in the scrollview so as not to get things too confused. everything seems to work as intended .. except this keyboard issue.
I have encountered the same problem before as you have now.
I believe it is triggered automatically by the iOS simulator when accidentally typing with your real keyboard in the text field instead of "clicking on the keyboard" in the simulator.
To resolve this issue, simply go to the iOS simulator, navigate to the Menu bar:
"Hardware > Keyboard" and uncheck "Connect to external keyboard".
The problem should now be solved.
This can happens in 2 cases:
in simulator
if your iPhone or iPad use external keyboard

So this problem is a little tricky. Basically, I found that the menu bar won't pop up in a UIwebview the first time you long press on a word. It would show something like this:
Example img
The words are selected, but the menubar is now showing. However, the second time you longpress on another word,the menubar just pops up fine.
Example img
Also, if you tap anywhere in the UIwebview or scroll it before longpressing on a word, the menu bar also shows up. It's just when the long press action is the first action you have with the UIwebview, the menu bar won't show up.
I checked this problem with some other third-party web browsers on app store (firefox, chrome). The same problem exists. However, Safari does not have this problem. Also, my iPad 2 does not have this problem either. But my iPad air does, so do the xcode simulators.
Not sure if I'm describing this problem clearly, thanks in advance for anyone that helps.
This problem is kind of Bug in iOS 9 web view
Me and my colleague was having same discussion yesterday.
Also it is only on Web view,Messaging apps works fine
My app was running fine on ios 8.4, but now after trying it on ios 9 beta, once the app is opened, the cursor on the UITextfield doesn't show up.
The keyboard doesn't come up. Shouldn't it come automatically?
The app works perfectly fine till ios8.4. Can some one help me out?
After one tap gesture on the UITextField, cursor doesn't show up at all.
Also, I tried checking the tintColor property as well as suggested by some users, but it is default blue.
Is there some specific change made in the way keyboard works on ios9?
A Situation - When I click on Login button, Alert message is displayed and then on pressing ok, the keyboard appears with a cursor but I can type only 1 character and suddenly the cursor and keyboard disappears. Then again, click on login, get the error message, cursor is available, type 1 character and cursor and keyboard disappears again.
Why is cursor on visible when tapped on a UITextField. This according to me must be a simple automatic thing. I have used resignFirstResponder and becomeFirstResponder too.
Anything to do with the Views here? For example, super view or something?
Thanks in advance!

The situation you have described is not happening when I tried the same.
The steps I followed:
Drag and drop one UITextField in Storyboard.
Give it required constraints.
Build & Run.
Keyboard and cursor both work perfectly in iOS9 simulator.
I have an interesting issue with an IOS app, 32bit at present.
I have a simple project with one form, a button and a TWebBrowser component.The "onclick" of the button sets the align property of the twebbrowser to client and opens a webpage (www.trademe.co.nz for testing).
Every thing works ok until I go to use the virtual keyboard (e.g. enter a search). When the virtual keyboard appears I am getting a second "done" button bar appearing above (and behind?) the main one. The main "done" bar includes next and previous buttons, whereas the background one doesn't. It appears that there are two keyboards appearing. I have the issue on both my test phones, one running IOS7 and the other running IOS6 and I believe it is also happening under IOS8.
Does anyone have any idea what causes this?
TIA
Say you've got a Xcode app with embedded web view exposing a simple HTML5 page.
This page has a title and an input tag and a nav top bar (position: fixed; top:0;).
When the user tap in it the first time, the whole screen scrolls up to enable the keyboard appears while maintaining the input tag visible, when I tap the enter button.
The issue I face is that my HTML is not restored identically (I mean, it scrolls down back, but my top bar is shifted about 10 pixels below the top edge of the screen.
But when I tap the keyboard hide button, the scrolls restore my initial view, with no issue.
Anyone experienced the issue before? Any clue of what going on or a way to work around this?
Ps: issue is present on iOS 7 (7.1.2). I didn't tested on iOS 8 as my app must support iOS 7.
I finally ended up with adding an explicit keyboard withdrawing by applying blur() the the input as follows:
<input ng-change="$(this).blur()">
This immediately makes the keyboard disappearing, while the hw initial scrolling is reversed.
I am writing an app for IOS and Android using Flex 4.6. Everything is working fine on Android, but on IOS after the softkeyboard appears and the screen pans, when the keyboard is dismissed the screen never pans back down. The bottom half of the screen stays white and the top half remains shifted out of view. I have been searching online and through my code trying to figure out what could be wrong and I've had no luck. I have been running the program in debug mode, but no AS3 error messages are shown. My trace()s are printed, and the app will continue to work but obviously you are unable to interact with the top half of the app. Everything works fine if I set the softkeyboardBehavior in the XML to none, but then the user can't see where they are typing.
I have only been able to test this on my IPod touch with IOS 5.0.1. When I try to run my project in Flash Builders simulator neither the Android nor the IOS version will get past the splash screen.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Thank you
I have seen that the softKeyboardDeactivate event from TextInput is not fired, as other actions that the unpan should cause are neither fired.
It seems it's a Flex 4.6 version bug. (http://forums.adobe.com/message/4068144).
I've found a workaround, it's a little tricky but it works.
Put a new TextInput hidden on top of the View, then on focusOut event on the original TextInput, force focus on the hidden TextInput. Softkeyboard event will be activated for that TextInput and the pan will return to the top of the View, then take off the focus from the new TextInput and the softkeyboard will disappear.
The user will not notice about this tricky solution.
<s:TextInput id="ghost" x="-100" y="0" width="0" height="0"/>
<!-- ... -->
<s:TextInput id="original" focusOut="textInputFocusOutHandler(event)"/>
...
public function textInputFocusOutHandler(event:FocusEvent):void
{
this.ghost.setFocus();
callLater(this.setFocus);
}
Try adding the "enter" attribute to your TextInput. It worked for me but now I have the issue where it jumps vs. pan when the soft keyboard deactivates.
It seems that my problem was that I was using the StageText skin for my text boxes, which adobe says in the documentation causes panning and any type of scrolling not to work. Switching to the old TextInput skin seems to fix the problem, but you loose all the native features for the soft keyboard, which pretty much ruins your user experience unfortunatly.
