UITextField not getting keyboard input

Question

I\'m having troubles entering text into an UITextField under a SVProgressHUD (Basically an UIView with a full-screen transparent UIWindow and some UIView subviews showing te

Answer 1

I finally found the problem: SVProgressHUD calls makeKeyAndVisible when it's initialized, because it wants to receive keyboard notifications for repositioning. I looked up what the "Key Window" actually is and found out:

...The key window responds to user input...

Now, as the UIWindow of the SVProgressHUD was the keyWindow, my other window, which contained the UITextField did not get the user input.

I finally call makeKeyWindow on the AppDelegate's window and everything is working fine.

I hope this helps anyone with similar problems.
