UIPopoverController moves strangely on iOS 7 when keyboard appears

Question

I have a UIPopoverController with a text field in it. On iOS 6, when the user taps the text field and the popover happens to be in the way of the keyboard sliding onscreen, the popover moves nicely out of the way.

On iOS 7, it flies to the edge of the screen. It's ridiculous.

Is this just a bug in iOS 7? Is there a way to control this behavior in iOS 7 that didn't exist before?

Thanks.

Answer 1

Try to change permittedArrowDirections from UIPopoverArrowDirectionAny to UIPopoverArrowDirectionLeft | UIPopoverArrowDirectionRight in -

(void)presentPopoverFromRect:(CGRect)rect inView:(UIView *)view permittedArrowDirections:(UIPopoverArrowDirection)arrowDirections animated:(BOOL)animated;

Answer 2

Seems there is a problem with the arrow direction for popovers. This forum post is related and seems to have more info https://devforums.apple.com/message/873738#873738
