UITableView in Popover scrolls out of bounds when keyboard is opened

Question

Hi,

I have a popover that contains a UITableView. This UITableView has a cell with a text field in it:

When the popover opens near the bottom of the screen, and I tap the text field to edit it, the keyboard comes up, and the popover moves up to avoid being covered by the keyboard. But as it moves up, the table view in the popover scrolls up out of bounds:

I can scroll it back down, but how do I prevent this from happening.

Answer 1

Try disabling scrolling on the table view.

[self.tableView scrollingEnabled:NO];

Answer 2

How are you setting the content view of your pop over controller. Please try editing the auto-resizing mask of the content view and set it from top-left.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Answer 3

Perhaps you can set the UITableView's contentSize manually? So that there is no excess for it to scroll up.

Answer 4

I've come to the conclusion that this is a bug. I have filed a bug report with Apple (rdar://8156616) as well as a report on OpenRadar.

For anyone interested, here is a sample project that demonstrates the issue.
