UISearchbar clearButton forces the keyboard to appear

Question

I have a UISearchBar which acts as a live filter for a table view. When the keyboard is dismissed via endEditing:, the query text and the gray circular \"clear\" button rem

Answer 1

Best solution from my experience is just to put a UIButton (with clear background and no text) above the system clear button and than connect an IBAction

With autolayout its just more than easy

- (IBAction)searchCancelButtonPressed:(id)sender {

    [self.searchBar resignFirstResponder];
    self.searchBar.text = @"";

    // some of my stuff
    self.model.fastSearchText = nil;
    [self.model fetchData];
    [self reloadTableViewAnimated:NO];

}
