I'm working on an iPhone app with only one view, a UITextView, and I want it to launch all ready for typing (with the keyboard activated) but by default it requires the user to first tap the view before the keyboard appears. I've seen this done in other applications but haven't been able to figure it out. Thanks. ...
I'm trying to handle touches on a iPhone's UITextView. I successfully managed to handle taps and other touch events by creating a subclass of UIImageViews for example and implementing the touchesBegan method...however that doesn't work with the UITextView apparently :( The UITextView has user interaction and multi touch enabled, just to...
On the iPhone's mail app, you can type in multiple mail addresses...and then to delete one you just tap it, and click Del. How can I implement something similar in my app? I tried to handle the tap on a UITextView, but it looks like the touchesBegan and related delegate methods are not fired for this class and its subclasses :( Any idea...
Hi all We have a UITextView in our iPhone app which is editable. We need to insert some text at the cursor location when the users presses some toolbar buttons but can't seem to find a documented (or undocumented) method of finding the current location of the cursor. Does anybody have any ideas or has anybody else achieved anything si...
Hello all, I'm using an UITextView to hold static content (in Chinese, which means that the characters are all fixed width). I want to let users click on a character in the text and bring up dictionary information for that character. I know all of the issues surrounding the lack of copy and paste and all that, but I'm hoping that there ...

In IB's library, the introduction tells us that when the return key is pressed, the keyboard for UITextView will disappear. But actually the return key can only act as '\n'. I can add a button and use [txtView resignFirstResponder] to hide the keyboard. But is there a way to add the action for the return key in keyboard so that I needn...
I have a UITextView added on my UIView. The textview added is not editable, it is just to display some data. The data displayed in the textview is dynamic. Thats is the number of lines is not fixed. It may vary. So if the number of line increases, the size of the textview also needs to be increased. I have no clue how to do this. Please ...
Hello, I have UITextView view in my Iphone application which displays large text and I am paging that text with offset margin, but the problem is, that it has some kind of margin or padding and it messes up my calculations (it seems to be diffferent depending on font style).

I have a simple app with a UITextView embedded into a UIScrollView. Interface Builder won't let me add multiple newlines for spacing; when I hit return it sees that as "end of input" rather than appending the newline to the UITextView. How can I get it to accept newlines for spacing? ...
Hi there, I have to update a small amount of text in a scrolling UITextView. I'll only be inserting a character where the cursor currently is, and I'll be doing this on a press of a button on my navigation bar. My problem is that whenever I call the setText method of the text view, it jumps to the bottom of the text. I've tried using c...
I like to replicate the form behavior of Safari on the iPhone in my own app. If you enter data in an web form you get a separate UIToolbar (previous, next, done) just above the UIKeyboardView. Same for choosing an option: you get the same UIToolbar just above an UIPickerView. I am looking for demos / sourcode / ideas how to implement th...
This is probably an easy thing to do, but I just can't figure it out - how do I end editing athe textview? how can I get the keyboard to disappear? or do I have to click outside it to make it go away? ...
I have a UITextView on top of a UIView. They are in a PageScrollView. The user can swipe anyhere outside of the UITextView and flick over the next page (view). I'd like the user to swipe on the UITextView and flick over the next view as well. The UITextView scrolls vertically when there is to much text, which the user can swipe and...
