UIKeyboardWillShowNotification incorrectly changes frame of UIWebView - ios

I am using a UIKeyboardWillShowNotification to know when the keyboard is shown and adjust the size of my UIWebView so that it isn't hidden behind the keyboard.
The strange thing is, when I change the frame in the method that gets called by NSNotificationCenter it changes the frame in a way that lets me scroll my UIWebView content (red in screenshot), but also a large portion of the UIWebView scrolls into view (yellow in screenshot). The yellow should never be shown.
- (void)keyboardWillShowOrHide:(NSNotification *)notification {
// User Info
NSDictionary *info = notification.userInfo;
CGFloat duration = [[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] floatValue];
int curve = [[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationCurveUserInfoKey] intValue];
CGRect keyboard = [[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] CGRectValue];
if ([notification.name isEqualToString:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification]) {
[UIView animateWithDuration:duration delay:0 options:curve animations:^{
CGRect frame = self.toolbarHolder.frame;
frame.origin.y = (self.view.frame.size.height - keyboard.size.height) - 44;
self.toolbarHolder.frame = frame;
// Editor View
CGRect editorFrame = self.editorView.frame;
editorFrame.size.height = (self.view.frame.size.height - keyboard.size.height) - 44;
self.editorView.frame = editorFrame;
} completion:nil];
} else {
[UIView animateWithDuration:duration delay:0 options:curve animations:^{
CGRect frame = self.toolbarHolder.frame;
frame.origin.y = self.view.frame.size.height;
self.toolbarHolder.frame = frame;
// Editor View
CGRect editorFrame = self.editorView.frame;
editorFrame.size.height = self.view.frame.size.height;
self.editorView.frame = editorFrame;
} completion:nil];
}
}
If I change the UIWebView frame in a different method than the one called from NSNotificationCenter, the frame changes correctly and the area above the keyboard is only filled with my HTML content within the UIWebView (red).
What could be causing this issue?

Use UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey key that returns the final expected frame for keyboard

iOS Animating main UIViewController's View height

I have a text field pinned to the bottom of my main UIViewController's view (self.view), and when the user clicks on it this function is called (via a UIKeyboardWillShowNotification) which will alter the height of the self.view.frame:
-(void)keyboardWillShow: (NSNotification*) notification {
NSDictionary* info = [notification userInfo];
CGSize keyboardSize = [[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] CGRectValue].size;
CGFloat textFieldHeight = activeField.frame.size.height;
CGPoint textFieldOrigin = activeField.frame.origin;
textFieldOrigin.y += textFieldHeight;
CGRect visibleRect = self.view.frame;
visibleRect.size.height -= keyboardSize.height;
if (!CGRectContainsPoint(visibleRect, textFieldOrigin)) {
CGRect r = self.view.frame;
r.size.height -= keyboardSize.height;
[UIView animateWithDuration:1.0
animations:^{
self.view.frame = r;
}];
}
}
It resizes the self.view.frame fine, so it is all being called and run, but for some reason refuses to animate it over a second - it just appears in place immediately.
What do I need to do in order to animate this change in height?
If you have auto layout on you shouldn't change the frame directly, instead you should change on of the constrains.
Add an IBOutlet to the constrain (the bottom constrain), and change the constant like so:
myTextFieldConstrain.constant -= YOUR_VALUE
Also, if you want it to animate, call [YOURSUPERVIEW layoutIfNeeded]; after you change the constant.
Example:
[UIView animateWithDuration:1.0
animations:^{
myTextFieldConstrain.constant -= YOUR_VALUE;
[YOURSUPERVIEW layoutIfNeeded];
}];
Try to dispatch it with a slight delay, like:
dispatch_after(dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, 1 * NSEC_PER_SEC), dispatch_get_main_queue(), ^{
[UIView animateWithDuration:1.0
animations:^{
self.view.frame = r;
}];
}
It usually makes the trick.

Autolayout Issue with growing UITextView above keyboard

I have a UIViewController with a main view. Within that view I have a red UIView that has a UITextView inside, that I would like to grow vertically when text is written. I'm able to have this effectively done if the redView initially starts somewhere in the middle of the screen and doesn't move based on the keyboard popping up by just modifying the UITextViewHeightConstraint that I made.
-(void)textViewDidChange:(UITextView *)textView {
[self.textView setScrollEnabled:NO];
CGSize newSize = [textView sizeThatFits:CGSizeMake(textView.frame.size.width, 999)];
if (newSize.height > textView.frame.size.height) {
self.textViewHeight.constant = newSize.height;
}
}
When I dock the redView that includes the UITextView subview to the bottom of the screen, my code appropriately will bring the view above the keyboard nicely, using the following code:
-(void)adjustViewForKeyboardNotification:(NSNotification *)notification {
NSDictionary *notificationInfo = [notification userInfo];
CGRect finalKeyboardFrame = [[notificationInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] CGRectValue];
//Get AnimationCurve and AnimationDuration for keyboard popping up.
UIViewAnimationCurve animationCurve = (UIViewAnimationCurve) [[notificationInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationCurveUserInfoKey] integerValue];
NSTimeInterval animationDuration = [[notificationInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] doubleValue];
finalKeyboardFrame = [self.view convertRect:finalKeyboardFrame fromView:self.view.window];
CGRect textBarFrame = self.redView.frame;
textBarFrame.origin.y = finalKeyboardFrame.origin.y-textBarFrame.size.height;
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:animationDuration];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:animationCurve];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
self.redView.frame = textBarFrame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
However, when I start typing and it comes time for the UITextView to expand, the redView is sent back down and is docked to the bottom of the screen (under the keyboard) - where it then expands vertically as I would have liked. I've tried adjusting the constraints in many different ways but haven't found a solution. I've tried setting the frame of the redView manually but that doesn't seem to work either (likely because of auto layout being enabled).
Any advice or tips would be greatly appreciated!

UITableView slightly goes up when keyboard hides

I am using UITableView (chatTable) along with UITabBar (chatTabBar) and one textField inside imageView. I am using autolayout. I used the following code to change the views when keyboard appears and disappears.
- (void)keyboardWasShown:(NSNotification*)aNotification
{
NSDictionary* info = [aNotification userInfo];
// get animation info from userInfo
NSTimeInterval animationDuration;
CGRect keyboardFrame;
[[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] getValue:&animationDuration];
[[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] getValue:&keyboardFrame];
// resize the frame
[UIView animateWithDuration:animationDuration delay:0.0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseOut animations:^{
self.keyboardHeight.constant = keyboardFrame.size.height - TABBAR_HEIGHT ;
[self.view layoutIfNeeded];
} completion:nil];
if ([chatData count] != VALUE_ZERO)
{
[chatTable scrollToRowAtIndexPath:[NSIndexPath indexPathForRow:([chatData count] - VALUE_ONE) inSection:VALUE_ZERO] atScrollPosition:UITableViewScrollPositionBottom animated:NO];
}
}
- (void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification*)aNotification
{
NSDictionary* info = [aNotification userInfo];
// get animation info from userInfo
NSTimeInterval animationDuration;
CGRect keyboardFrame;
[[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] getValue:&animationDuration];
[[info objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] getValue:&keyboardFrame];
// Set view frame
[UIView animateWithDuration:animationDuration delay:2.0 options:UIViewAnimationOptionCurveEaseOut animations:^{
self.keyboardHeight.constant -= keyboardFrame.size.height - TABBAR_HEIGHT;
[self.view layoutIfNeeded];
} completion:nil];
}
Now when I press return the tableview goes up a littel bit (from screen 2 to screen 3). keyboardHeight is the bottom space constraint between the tabBar and main view.
(screen 2)
(screen3)
I have tried many things but I can't able to find why the tableview is going up for a while. (problem is there is no smooth animation.) (Note: I have put delay as 2.0 only to show what happens in following screenshot(screen 3) othewise it's value would be 0)
Your problem is that you're changing the table view frame when the keyboard appears, which is wrong. You need to change the contentInset property of the table view, instead of meddling with frames.
- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification *)notification {
CGFloat height = [notification.userInfo[UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] CGRectValue].size.height - self.tabBarController.tabBar.frame.size.height;
UIEdgeInsets edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsMake(0.0f, 0.0f, height, 0.0f);
_tableView.contentInset = edgeInsets;
_tableView.scrollIndicatorInsets = edgeInsets;
}
- (void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification *)notification {
UIEdgeInsets edgeInsets = UIEdgeInsetsZero;
_tableView.contentInset = edgeInsets;
_tableView.scrollIndicatorInsets = edgeInsets;
}
Solved the problem with contentInset property. I am using contentInset as mentiond by the #Eugene and also changing the constant property of bottom constraint of the textfiled to move up and doen whenever keyboard is shown and hidden.

Resize UITextView when rotation in iOS

Hello i am facing a problem with UITextView.
In my app , i need to support both Portrait and Landscape.
So i added UITextView into my app and resize the frame of UITextView when keyboard appearing with following code because when keyboard appear , the UITextView is behind the keyboard and i can't see what i write in UITextView.
- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification*)notification
{
[self moveTextViewForKeyboard:notification up:YES];
}
- (void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification*)notification
{
[self moveTextViewForKeyboard:notification up:NO];
}
- (void)moveTextViewForKeyboard:(NSNotification*)notification up:(BOOL)up {
NSDictionary *userInfo = [notification userInfo];
NSTimeInterval animationDuration;
UIViewAnimationCurve animationCurve;
CGRect keyboardRect;
[[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationCurveUserInfoKey] getValue:&animationCurve];
animationDuration = [[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] doubleValue];
keyboardRect = [[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] CGRectValue];
keyboardRect = [self.view convertRect:keyboardRect fromView:nil];
[UIView beginAnimations:#"ResizeForKeyboard" context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:animationDuration];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:animationCurve];
if (up == YES)
{
CGFloat keyboardTop = keyboardRect.origin.y;
CGRect newTextViewFrame = self.txtView.frame;
newTextViewFrame.size.height = keyboardTop - self.txtView.frame.origin.y - 10;
self.txtView.frame = newTextViewFrame;
}
else
{
self.txtView.frame = originalCGRect;
}
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
That is fine when keyboard appear and not covering my UITextView anymore.
However when i rotate into Landscape , the UITextView frame is not correct anymore and also when i hide keyboard , it still remain like small size and not the fit with View.
How can i solve that problem?
Please help me.
Try this i hope helpful to you....

iOS - Interface elements overlapping when move the view

I have the following interface layout on my application:
When I click on a text field (if you lick add tag a new text field is added) I make my view scroll up as to not be obstructed by the keyboard so the user can properly see what he's typing, but the following happens when I do so:
This is the code I use to scroll:
- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification *)notification {
if (self.keyboardIsShown) {
return;
}
NSValue *keyboardBoundsValue = [[notification userInfo] objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey];
CGSize keyboardSize = [keyboardBoundsValue CGRectValue].size;
NSTimeInterval animationDuration = 0.3;
CGRect frame = self.view.frame;
frame.origin.y -= keyboardSize.height - 94 + self.firstResponder.superview.superview.frame.origin.y;
frame.size.height += keyboardSize.height - 94 + self.firstResponder.superview.superview.frame.origin.y;
[UIView beginAnimations:#"ResizeForKeyboard" context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:animationDuration];
self.view.frame = frame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
self.keyboardIsShown = YES;
}
- (void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification *)notification {
NSValue *keyboardBoundsValue = [[notification userInfo] objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey];
CGSize keyboardSize = [keyboardBoundsValue CGRectValue].size;
NSTimeInterval animationDuration = 0.3;
CGRect frame = self.view.frame;
frame.origin.y += keyboardSize.height - 94 + self.firstResponder.superview.superview.frame.origin.y;
frame.size.height -= keyboardSize.height - 94 + self.firstResponder.superview.superview.frame.origin.y;
[UIView beginAnimations:#"ResizeForKeyboard" context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationBeginsFromCurrentState:YES];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:animationDuration];
self.view.frame = frame;
[UIView commitAnimations];
self.keyboardIsShown = NO;
}
Any idea how I can make the view elements show behind the navbar or disappear or another workaround that would work properly?
A quick way to achieve what you want, would be to have your navigation bar below the "content"-view in your view tree. That way the navigation bar will remain on top. If you add the content dynamically. Make sure you add them as subviews of a view that is behind the navigation bar.
// Edit
As proposed in the comments:
self.view.clipsToBounds = YES;
CGRect frame = self.yourWrappingView.frame;
NSUInteger distanceToMove = 200;
self.yourWrappingView.frame = CGRectMake(frame.origin.x - distanceToMove, frame.origin.y, frame.size.width, frame.size.height);
This should work for you mate :)
Probably you are not using a real UINavigationController. But you should. So you wouldn't have those problems and a correct resizing behaviour. But to solve it in your current architecture:
Make sure the Navigation Bar is the top most object in your nib file / storyboard
add an IBOutlet for your UINavigationBar and if you insert new views dynamically, use [self insertSubview: newView belowSubview: navigationBarOutlet];
