  1. POHow to add a 'Done' button to numpad keyboard in iOS
    text
    copied!<p>So, the numpad keyboard doesn't come with a 'Done' or 'Next' button by default so I'd like to add one. In iOS 6 and below there were some tricks to add a button to the keyboard but they don't seem to be working in iOS 7.</p> <p>First I subscribe to the keyboard showing notification</p> <pre><code>[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillShow:) name:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object:nil]; </code></pre> <p>Then I try to add a button when the keyboard shows up:</p> <pre><code>- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification *)note { // create custom button UIButton *doneButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeSystem]; doneButton.frame = CGRectMake(0, 50, 106, 53); doneButton.adjustsImageWhenHighlighted = NO; [doneButton setTitle:@"Done" forState:UIControlStateNormal]; [doneButton addTarget:self action:@selector(dismissKeyboard) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside]; // locate keyboard view UIWindow* tempWindow = [[[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows] objectAtIndex:1]; UIView* keyboard; for(int i=0; i&lt;[tempWindow.subviews count]; i++) { keyboard = [tempWindow.subviews objectAtIndex:i]; // keyboard view found; add the custom button to it if([[keyboard description] hasPrefix:@"UIKeyboard"] == YES) [keyboard addSubview:doneButton]; } } </code></pre> <p>But the for loop doesn't run because it doesn't find any subviews. Any suggestions? I couldn't find any solutions for iOS7 so is there a different way I'm supposed to be doing this?</p> <p>Edit: Thanks for all the suggestions for toolbars guys but I'd rather not go down that route as I'm quite space poor (and it is kind of ugly).</p>
