Move UIView up when the keyboard appears in iOS

Question

I have a UIView, it is not inside UIScrollView. I would like to move up my View when the keyboard appears. Before I tried to use this solution: How can I make a UITextField

Answer 1

Declare a delegate, assign your text field to the delegate and then include these methods.

Assuming you have a login form with email and password text fields, this code will fit perfectly:

-(void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {

    [self.emailTextField resignFirstResponder];
    [self.passwordTextField resignFirstResponder];

}

- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField {

    if (self.emailTextField == textField) {
        [self.passwordTextField becomeFirstResponder];
    } else {
        [self.emailTextField resignFirstResponder];
        [self.passwordTextField resignFirstResponder];
    }
    return NO;
}
- (void)viewWillAppear:(BOOL)animated {
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillShow:) name:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object:nil];
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillHide:) name:UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object:nil];
}

- (void)viewWillDisappear:(BOOL)animated {
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object:nil];
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self name:UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object:nil];
}

#pragma mark - keyboard movements
- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    CGSize keyboardSize = [[[notification userInfo] objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] CGRectValue].size;

    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3 animations:^{
        CGRect f = self.view.frame;
        f.origin.y = -0.5f * keyboardSize.height;
        self.view.frame = f;
    }];
}

-(void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    [UIView animateWithDuration:0.3 animations:^{
        CGRect f = self.view.frame;
        f.origin.y = 0.0f;
        self.view.frame = f;
    }];
}
