In my app, I press a button and it pulls up a modal presentation sheet (for iPad). Within this modal view I have a scrollview within my main view, and 1 text field within my scroll view.
view controller
view
scrollview
text field
Nothing I have tried resigns the keyboard and I don't know why. The only thing that happens is the blinking cursor in the textfield goes away. My class is the delegate for the scrollview and text fields. Here is what I have tried:
- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView{
[self.titleTextField resignFirstResponder];
[self.titleTextField endEditing:YES];
[self.view endEditing:YES];
[self.view resignFirstResponder];
[self.scrollView endEditing:YES];
[self.scrollView resignFirstResponder];
}
The method does get called, but the keyboard doesn't go away. Can anyone help me or at least tell me why?
Here is how I present this modalpresentation view:
(it comes from a tableviewcontroller)
didSelectRowAtIndexPath
EditVideo *targetController = [self.storyboard instantiateViewControllerWithIdentifier:#"editVideo"];
targetController.delegate = self;
UINavigationController *navigationController = [[UINavigationController alloc] initWithRootViewController:targetController];
navigationController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
[self presentViewController:navigationController animated:YES completion:nil];
[self.tableView deselectRowAtIndexPath:indexPath animated:YES];
On the iPad for any any non-fullscreen presented ViewController, you must implement -(BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal to return NO to dismiss the keyboard.
- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal
{
return NO;
}
Once that is implemented, you can call [self.view endEditing:YES];.
Edit:
The other common cause of this problem is returning NO from - (BOOL)textFieldShouldEndEditing:(UITextField *)textField. Implement the method in the UITextFieldDelegate and have it return YES unconditionally to prove that it is not a factor.

I have a trio of functions and a property that I use to control my popovers as follows:
-(void)dismissPopoverIfPresentAnimated:(BOOL)animated
{
if (self.currentPopover)
{
[self.currentPopover dismissPopoverAnimated:animated];
self.currentPopover = nil;
}
}
-(void)presentViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController inView:(UIView *)view fromRect:(CGRect)rect suppressArrow:(BOOL)suppressArrow
{
//Did the user just tap on a button to bring up the same controller that's already displayed?
//If so, just dismiss the current controller.
BOOL closeOnly = NO;
if (self.currentPopover)
{
UIViewController *currentController = [self.currentPopover.contentViewController isKindOfClass:UINavigationController.class] ? ((UINavigationController *)self.currentPopover.contentViewController).topViewController : self.currentPopover.contentViewController;
UIViewController *newController = [viewController isKindOfClass:UINavigationController.class] ? ((UINavigationController *)viewController).topViewController : viewController;
if ([currentController isKindOfClass:newController.class])
closeOnly = YES;
[self dismissPopoverIfPresentAnimated:NO];
}
if (!closeOnly)
{
self.currentPopover = [[UIPopoverController alloc] initWithContentViewController:viewController];
self.currentPopover.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[self.currentPopover presentPopoverFromRect:rect inView:view permittedArrowDirections:(suppressArrow ? 0 : UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny) animated:YES];
}
}
(instancetype) initWithContentViewController:(UIViewController )viewController
{
self = [super initWithContentViewController:[[UIViewController alloc] init]];
if (self)
{
UIViewController contentViewController = super.contentViewController;
[contentViewController addChildViewController:viewController];
[viewController didMoveToParentViewController:contentViewController];
[contentViewController.view addSubview:viewController.view];
[self setPopoverContentSize:viewController.preferredContentSize animated:NO];
}
return self;
}
This runs fine in iOS 7, but in iOS 8 the problem is there is a delay between the call to presentPopoverFromRect and when the item actually shows up onscreen. So, if a user double taps a button to show a popover, the first tap will properly dismiss, then "start" the showing of the new controller. The second tap will make the dismiss call (the popover is not yet visible) and then not show the new controller (this is a design feature so that click a button will show a popover, clicking it again will hide it).
The problem is that the call to dismiss the popover doesn't actually work and the popover will show up. At that point I can't get rid of it because my property is nil and I think it is not showing.
My guess is this is an iOS 8 bug where the dismiss somehow doesn't see a visible popover and thus doesn't do anything, where instead, it should prevent it from showing up.
Oh, one last note is that the call to presentViewController is always done on the main thread.
(This an extension of iOS 7: Keyboard not showing after leaving modal ViewController)
I've got a HomeViewController that uses a NavigationController. Clicking a button takes you to ModalViewController using a modal segue. Pressing the back button then takes you back to the HomeViewController, which then pops up a keyboard. The weird part though is that the keyboard never shows up. I've verified that the UIKeyboardDidShowNotification does get fired , UIKeyboardDidHideNotification doesn't and [textfield isFirstResponder] returns true. Which means the keyboard should be shown right??
I've verified that this only occurs if I have a modal segue, and the NavigationController::shouldAutorotate returns NO.
I've copied the relevant code below. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!
NavigationController.m:
- (BOOL)shouldAutorotate
{
return NO;
}
- (NSUInteger)supportedInterfaceOrientations
{
return UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait;
}
HomeViewController.m:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
[super viewDidAppear:animated];
if (firstTimeComplete) {
UITextField *textField = [[UITextField alloc] init];
[self.view addSubview:textField];
[textField performSelector:#selector(becomeFirstResponder) withObject:nil afterDelay:3];
}
}
ModalViewController.m:
- (IBAction)back:(id)sender
{
[self dismissViewControllerAnimated:YES completion:nil];
}
Fixed! The problem was because I was using UIInterfaceOrientationPortrait instead of UIInterfaceOrientationMaskPortrait. I think masks are the expected type for supportedInterfaceOrientations
The scrollview in my main page stop working if I push something to the navigation controller and then pop back to the main page. It works normally if I reopen the application without pushing anything to the navigation controller yet. The scrollview is a horizontal scrollview which extends beyond the frame. I use it to scroll through buttons like when you switch application in iOS (iOS multitasking).
This is the code where I push a new vc
UIViewController *newVC = [[UIViewController alloc] init];
UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];
[label setTextAlignment:NSTextAlignmentCenter];
label.text = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"promo %i detail view",[sender tag]];
label.backgroundColor = [UIColor whiteColor];
[newVC.view addSubview:label];
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:NO animated:NO];
[self.navigationController pushViewController:newVC animated:YES];
when that view controller is popped and navigation controller move back to the main page I hide the navigationBar.
- (void)navigationController:(UINavigationController *)navigationController willShowViewController:(UIViewController *)viewController animated:(BOOL)animated {
if(viewController == self){
[self.navigationController setNavigationBarHidden:YES];
NSLog(#"%d", [self.scrollMenuBar isScrollEnabled]);
}
}
checking isScrollEnable return true.
I tried pushing a normal modal view and the same problem occur.
If you resize the scroll view content size in the viewDidLayoutSubview function it will work again.
- (void) viewDidLayoutSubviews {
[self resizeScrollViewContent];
}
Add
[self.scrollbarMenu setScrollEnabled:YES]; in viewdidAppear of main page
Add
[scroll setContentSize:CGSizeMake(width , height)];
Still if it doesnt work
2 possibilities
Memory is not valid.
Some other view comes above the scrollview
Problem solved by creating the UIScrollview and the button inside it programmatically. Not sure what I did wrong with storyboard, but it's a pain.
For my iPad app, I have a view displayed modally as a formsheet when a button is pushed. In order to have the keyboard dismissed after entering text in a textfield i tried as suggested;
the "disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal" method.
This does not work, in fact, the method is never called acording to the log.
The keybord will dismiss for iPhone or when i choose to not present modally.
Here is my code:
- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal
{
NSLog(#"method calls");
return NO;
}
- (IBAction)showNewView:(id)sender
{
MyViewController *mvc =
[[MyViewController alloc] init];
// some lines about setting content
//...
UINavigationController *navController = [[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:mvc];
[navController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFormSheet];
[self presentViewController:navController animated:YES completion:nil];
}
-(BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal
or not, the keyboard is not dismissed unless i remove tis line:
// [navController setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFormSheet];
However, then it is not presented the way I want anymore.
Can anyone see what I am doing wrong?
-(BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal needs to overridden to return NO by the view controller that is presented as a form sheet, not by the presenter; That's your mistake. In your case you could subclass UINavigationController to get the desired behaviour:
#interface AutomaticKeyboardDismissingNavigationController : UINavigationController
#end
#implementation AutomaticKeyboardDismissingNavigationController
- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal
{
return NO;
}
#end
(The class name could probably be a bit shorter and still be comprehensible.)
I set up a mechanism where a modal view controller can be dismissed by tapping the outside of the view. The set up is as follows:
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated
{
UITapGestureRecognizer *recognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:#selector(handleTapBehind:)];
[recognizer setNumberOfTapsRequired:1];
recognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO; //So the user can still interact with controls in the modal view
[self.view.window addGestureRecognizer:recognizer];
}
- (void)handleTapBehind:(UITapGestureRecognizer *)sender
{
if (sender.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded)
{
CGPoint location = [sender locationInView:nil]; //Passing nil gives us coordinates in the window
//Then we convert the tap's location into the local view's coordinate system, and test to see if it's in or outside. If outside, dismiss the view.
if (![self.view pointInside:[self.view convertPoint:location fromView:self.view.window] withEvent:nil])
{
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
NSLog(#"There are %d Gesture Recognizers",[self.view.window gestureRecognizers].count);
[self.view.window removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
}
}
}
This works amazing for dismissing a single modal view. Now suppose I have two modal views, one called from within the root view controller (View A) and then another modal called from within the first modal (View B)
Kind of like this:
Root View -> View A -> View B
When I tap to dismiss View B, all is well. However I get an EXC_BAD_ACCESS error when I try to dismiss View A. After turning on zombies, it seems that View B is still getting the message handleTapBehind: sent to it, even though it's been dismissed and out of memory after View B was closed.
My question is why is View B still being messaged? (handleTapBehind: make sure that gesture recognizer should have been removed from the associated window.) And how can I get it to be sent to View A after View B is already dismissed.
PS. The code above appears both inside the controller for View A and for View B, and it is identical.
EDIT
Here's how I am calling the modal view controller, this code is inside a view controller that is within the standard view hierarchy.
LBModalViewController *vc = [[LBModalViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"LBModalViewController" bundle:nil];
[vc.myTableView setDataSource:vc];
[vc setDataArray:self.object.membersArray];
[vc setModalPresentationStyle:UIModalPresentationFormSheet];
[vc setModalTransitionStyle:UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal];
[vc.view setClipsToBounds:NO];
[self presentViewController:vc animated:YES completion:nil];
// This is a hack to modify the size of the presented view controller
CGPoint modalOrigin = vc.view.superview.bounds.origin;
[[vc.view superview] setBounds:CGRectMake(modalOrigin.x, modalOrigin.y, 425, 351)];
[vc.view setBounds:CGRectMake(modalOrigin.x, modalOrigin.y, 425, 351)];
That's pretty much it, everything else is pretty standard.
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
[self.view.window removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
Should be:
[self.view.window removeGestureRecognizer:sender];
[self dismissModalViewControllerAnimated:YES];
else you will get undefined results.
