Resigning Number Pad of TextField ios

Question

I am using the keyboard type Number Pad for a particular Text Field which is to be given with a zip number. When using regular keyboard i use resignfirstresponder to quit the keyboard when i click on the enter key in that keyboard. But for the number pad, other than numbers there is only a backspace key. So is there a way to customize it or some other technique to resign the number pad?

Answer 1

Plenty of answers are available for this question.

Use dismissing Number Pad or How to dismiss number pad keyboard by tapping anywhere

You can implement which way you like.

Answer 2

You can refer this post for hiding the number pad when tapping on your view or you may refer this for another solution by adding done button on UINavigationBar.

Answer 3

you have 2 ways to do this:

1. As soon as u show the numPad, add a 'Done' button on tha navigationBar on tap of which you resign the keyboard and remove this 'Done' button from Navigation Bar.

2. Add a toolBar on top of keyboard for a NumberPad and add a Done button on top of this toolbar. Set the origin of this toolBar (0,maxScreenheight), and on display of the keyboard, change the origin of this toolbar to (0, maxScreenHeight-keyboardHeight-ToolBarHeight) with animationDuration of 0.3. On dismiss of the keyboard change the origin of the toolBar back to (0,maxScreenheight). by doing this the toolbar will look like a part of the keyboard as the animaion duration of the keyboard is 0.3.

Answer 4

you can do so when user touch the screen anywhere the keyboard will dismiss.Here is the code:-

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event 
{
    [yourtextFieldName resignFirstResponder];// This will dismiss your keyBoard.
}

and must call UITextField Delegate. If you want to customise the keyboard here is the link which can help you out:-
