In my iPhone app I have a settings page where a user can enter text into multiple TextFields. The text fields are all cells within a table. The problem I'm noticing is that when a field scrolls off the phone's screen it loses the value currently in the text field. I notice Apple's apps always have you click on a field to edit it, whic...
I have an app where, in Interface Builder, I set up a UIView that has a text field near the bottom of the view. When I run the app and try to enter text into that field, the keyboard slides up overtop of the field so I can't see what I'm typing until I hide the keyboard again. Has anyone else run into this problem and found a good way...

I have a table view that has embedded UITextFields for entering some data. It also has two other fields that popup a UIPickerView and a UIDatePicker - as demonstrated in the DateCell example from Apple. Mostly it works but I can't figure out how to cleanly transition from the text field keyboard to the other pickers - one slides out, o...
I have a UITextField inside a TableViewCell where a player enters their name. I have limited space (78 units) for the control. I'd like the font to be as large as possible (Helv 16) for easy readability but also scale down for longer names. (min size 8) I thought that "Adjust to Fit" in Interface Builder would do the trick but alas it...

Hi there, In my app I want the user to type names into a UITextField (or equivalent) and then when they press return, it will put that word(s) in a blue bubble that's usually associated with tags.

To do this, I set the keyboard type to UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad and added a '.'-Button at the bottom left corner. Every time the button is pressed, a function is called. This function should insert a dot at the current cursor pos...
I would like to create a pin-code dialogue, like the one you can switch on on the iPhone. For those who have not seen it, it consists of four boxes and a number keypad. When you enter a digit, a dot appears in the first box. And so forth. When you hit the delete button, the last dot is removed. I have this set up as four UITextFields a...
Hi all! I'm making an application which uses an UITextView. Now I want the UITextView to have a placeholder similar to the one you can set for an UITextField. Does anyone know how to do this? Thanks in advance. ...
I'd like to change the color of the placeholder text I set in my UITextField controls, to make it black. I'd prefer to do this without using normal text as the placeholder and having to override all the methods to imitate the behaviour of a placeholder. I believe if I override this method.. - (void)drawPlaceholderInRect:(CGRect)rect ...

I have tried making my UIView subclass adopt the UITextInputTraits protocol but it seems that's not enough to make the keyboard appear. How can this be done? Or is it only possible fo...
