In textfield delegate method i.e -(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField {
[textfiled resignFirstResponder];

return YES;
}
you should resign the fristresponder, that’s it

Hey Joris,

Did you set the “yourTextFieldName.delegate = self;” in your UIViewController subclass?

thank you!! very very useful. only one problem. whatever I try, I cannot hide the keyboard using this code by tapping the return key or tapping somewhere else on the screen. is there maybe some other code for this or do I have to change a setting?

Do you mean when it’s not selected or when it’s textField.enabled = NO; ? if that latter, you can do if(!textview.enabled)[textview setPlaceholder:nil]; after you have set the enabled/disabled property. If you mean when It’s not selected you’ll have to use delegate methods (simple, but too much code for these comments)

Hi, great clear post thanks. I was actually trying to find something in the API to allow me to restrict the length of the input string. e.g.. in Twitter 140 chars. Do you know if there is something in the API ? Thanks

Thanks for the info. Solved a question I have had for a while. One question. Where is the best place to set the properties of ui objects like the text field?
