    <p>Here's how I've handled this before. First create a method on your view controller that will dismiss the keyboard by resigning first responder status on your text field:</p> <pre><code>- (IBAction)dismissKeyboard:(id)sender { [mainTextController resignFirstResponder]; } </code></pre> <p>Next, in your storyboard scene for your <code>ViewController</code> (or <code>nib</code>, if you are not using storyboards) change the class of your ViewController's <code>view</code> property from <code>UIView</code> to <code>UIControl</code>. The <code>view</code> property is effectively the background behind your other UI elements. The class type needs to be changed because <code>UIView</code> cannot respond to touch events, but <code>UIControl</code> (which is a direct subclass of <code>UIView</code>) can respond to them.</p> <p>Finally, in your ViewController's <code>viewDidLoad:</code> method, tell your view controller to execute your <code>dismissKeyboard</code> method when the view receives a <code>UIControlEventTouchDown</code> event.</p> <pre><code>- (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; UIControl *viewControl = (UIControl*)self.view; [viewControl addTarget:self action:@selector(dismissKeyboard:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown]; } </code></pre> <p>EDIT:</p> <p>Part of your concern seems to be that <code>textFieldDidEndEditing:</code> is called when the keyboard is dismissed. That is unavoidable, it will always be called whenever a text field loses focus (i.e. first responder status). It sounds like your problem is that you have put code to perform when the user clicks the return button in <code>textFieldDidEndEditing:</code>. If you do not want that code to run when the user touches outside of the text field, that is not the proper place to put it.</p> <p>Instead, I would put that code in a separate method:</p> <pre><code>- (IBAction)textFieldReturn:(id)sender { if ([mainTextController isFirstResponder]) { [mainTextController resignFirstResponder]; // put code to run after return key pressed here... } } } </code></pre> <p>and then call that method via Target-Action when your text field sends the control event <code>UIControlEventEditingDidEndOnExit</code>.</p> <pre><code>[mainTextController addTarget:self action:@selector(textFieldReturn:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventEditingDidEndOnExit]; </code></pre> <p>Note that <code>UIControlEventEditingDidEndOnExit</code> is different than <code>UIControlEventEditingDidEnd</code>. The former is called when editing ends by the user touching outside the control, the latter is called when editing ends by the user pressing the return key.</p>

    1. COIt will eventually call resignFirstResponder, which is calling the method that is called after pressing the return button (I think textFieldDidEndEditing)

    2. COSo I am confused - are you saying you want to dismiss the keyboard but have your text field retain first responder status? If so, that is not possible. You are correct, textFieldDidEndEditing will be called no matter what when keyboard is dismissed and the text field loses focus. Instead of putting your return button logic there, look into using a target-action for control event UIControlEventEditingDidEndOnExit. This way you can distinguish between user hitting the return button on keyboard while editing the text field vs user leaving the text field by clicking elsewhere in view.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
