Hiding the Keyboard when losing focus on a UITextView

Question

So I have a UITextView that I\'m using to allow the user to submit some text.

My problem is, I can\'t seem to figure out how to allow the user to \'Cancel\' by tappi

Answer 1

Another approach I used a lot when working with UITableViews, Searchbar and keyboard is this, I think you can apply it to text field

UITapGestureRecognizer *gestureRecognizer = [[UITapGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(hideKeyboard)];
[self.tableView addGestureRecognizer:gestureRecognizer];
gestureRecognizer.cancelsTouchesInView = NO;  // this prevents the gesture recognizers to 'block' touches
[gestureRecognizer release];

And then, here's the simple callback function

- (void)hideKeyboard {
    [myTextField resignFirstResponder];
}

Hope it helps
