custom-keyboard

Fairly new to iOS development so forgive me for asking something that might be quite obvious. As you all know the UITextField's keyboard with keyboardType set to .NumberPad looks like the following... .NumberPad keyboard What I would like to do is replace the empty space in the lower left corner with a minus sign. Is this possible or does one need to write an entire custom keyboard to achieve this? Would really appreciate the help. Add a toolbar to your textfield inputAccessoryView and when the textfield will become the responder then the keyboard will show the toolbar (Swift 3.0): func

I want to use CoreBluetooth API within iOS keyboard extension (custom keyboard). However, the state for the CBCentralManager is unsupported. The device I use is iPhone 6. It works fine inside the container app. Does this mean that the CoreBluetooth API cannot be used inside the keyboard extension? You will need to set RequestOpenAccess to YES in your extension's plist under NSExtension > NSExtensionAttributes. Setting this to YES allows the extension to access network resources. Bluetooth is considered a network resource so you will get CBManagerStateUnsupported when RequestOpenAccess is NO.

How to do the custom size of keyboard like what gBoard did in their keyboard (see the screenshot). Here the search section is showing above the keyboard. I want to do the same in my application. Is anybody can help me to know which method is using to create such a view. You should look at the inputAccessoryView property. Since it is a property on UIResponder , it is available on UITextView , UITextField and others. Assigning your custom view to inputAccessoryView will make it appear on top of the keyboard whenever the UI object you assigned it to has focus. // Create your custom keyboard

I have implemented a custom keyboard. It works fine on a device which runs iOS 8.2. However, when I run the same code on a device with iOS 8.3 I get the following warnings and the height of the keyboard is not set properly: Probably at least one of the constraints in the following list is one you don't want. Try this: (1) look at each constraint and try to figure out which you don't expect; (2) find the code that added the unwanted constraint or constraints and fix it. (Note: If you're seeing NSAutoresizingMaskLayoutConstraints that you don't understand, refer to the documentation for the

I have added Custom Keyboard extension inside my app and running perfect. I have added NSNotification in my keyboard extension class like this: [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(changeKeyboardColor) name:@"keyboard_color" object:nil]; Now I am calling this notification from my view controller class like this: [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] postNotificationName:@"keyboard_color" object:self]; Now I have added my notification selector method in my keyboard extension class like this: -(void)changeKeyboardColor{ } But it is not working. I am testing

In the app that not optimized for iphone 6 in standard display mode keyboard and status bar shows zoomed. This causes my manually layouted custom keyboard extension to show streched. How can I detect this zooming to fix layout? Use self.view.frame.size.width It returns 320 for zoomed mode & 414 for regular mode on my 6+ (hopefully on 6 also) in - (void)updateViewConstraints Eventually you will not need to do this as whatsapp and other apps get updated (I believe whatsapp just did) but how I get around it temporarily is by getting the size of the view where I am drawing my keyboard view. CGRect

I want to create a search bar like Gboard inside keyboard (Android IME) as shown in picture. Gboard Sample : I have implemented an edittext on Keyboardview.xml as shown in picture. My Implementation : main_keyboard_frame.xml <RelativeLayout android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="120dp" android:background="#cf060610" android:id="@+id/search_panel" android:visibility="invisible"> <EditText android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="40dp" android:hint="sdsddsd" android:id="@+id/ed"/> </RelativeLayout> But the problem is when i press the edittext 2 (that is

I am currently building a custom keyboard and I am almost done. One problem that I have is with the delete button. When the user taps the delete button, it does what it should do and deletes the previous text entry. However when the user holds the button down, nothing happens. How do I make it so that when the user holds down the delete button, the keyboard continuously deletes like in the standard ios keyboard? This is my current code: pragma mark Keyboards - (void)addGesturesToKeyboard{ [self.keyboard.deleteKey addTarget:self action:@selector(pressDeleteKey)forControlEvents
