The ResignFirstResponder for an UITextField on the Iphone semms to not working for the Ipad. How can I dismiss my keyboard programmatically?

Thanks,

Answer 1

In iOS 4.3, Apple introduced the above mentioned method, disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal. It returns YES for UIModalPresentationFormSheet, preventing the keyboard from dismissing.

Overriding this method works, but if you present your view controller inside a UINavigationController, you must subclass UINavigationController and override the method there.

I've confirmed that this does indeed work on iOS 6. Just make sure to pay attention to the UINavigationController clause.

Answer 2

Now we can

- (BOOL)disablesAutomaticKeyboardDismissal {
    return NO;
}
