I have a UITextView placed just below a view containing an ad and when the user tries to paste in text the paste menu overlays the ad which is just above the insertion point. I don't want to encourage accidental clicks so I'm looking for a way to make the menu display below the insertion point instead of above it. Or maybe there's a way ...

Hello, I'm working with the UIMenuController and it disappears when the screen is clicked. When I show the menu I need to wait for the user to select an item before the menu fades away but if the click anywhere on the screen (not on the menu bar) the menu will still fade out.

EDIT: I have modified Apple's colored tile example by adding UIMenuController *theMenu = [UIMenuController sharedMenuController]; theMenu.arrowDirection = UIMenuControllerArrowLeft; to applicationDidFinishLaunching and adding a UITextView right next to the reset button.

Hello, I'm using the new customization abilities of the UIMenuController to add things other than "Copy" to the menu for cut&paste into a webview.

The problem is that UITextView within the same view controller resigns its first responder status thus dismissing keyboard when popup menu is presented. How do I avoid this? I want my application to behav...

I have successfully been able to add a custom UIMenuItem to the Copy & Paste menu in my iPhone app, and even subclassed UITextView to get rid of the standard menu items.
