Does Value Changed event work for Text Fields at all in Interface Builder?

Question

Hi,

I'm trying to set up methods to be executed when value of certain text field is changed and saved. I tried to hook up this method with Value Changed event in Iterface Builder. It doesn't respond and I use this same event with some other control/classes and it works.

There is also no delegate method usable for that purpose.

Last resort could be only UITextFieldTextDidEndEditingNotification notification or UITextFieldTextDidChangeNotification notification, but I would certainly like to avoid writing observers if simple event in interface builder serves the purpose.

Any idea?

The valueChanged event is for buttons and sliders. For TextFields you'll want to use the Editing Changed, Editing Did Begin and Editing Did End events.

If that doesn't help become a UITextFieldDelegate instead.
