I just asked a question about how to monitor changes to a UITextField and received this response : - (BOOL)textField:(UITextField *)textField shouldChangeCharactersInRange:(NSRange)range replacementString:(NSString *)replacementStr { // Enable "Next" if you like what's entered in the replacementStr } This works, but the replacement string is not the whole string, just what it is adding. How can I get the whole string? My objective is to see if the string in the text field is blank or equal to a certain number (in different scenarios). Please note that the outlet to the text field doesn't work

For my keyboards to move up to uncover UITextField in my iOS app, I used to implement this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/a/6908258/3855618 on iOS7 and 8 and it has worked perfectly for now. However on iOS 9.1, it doesn't work anymore. To be more accurate, even if the background view does move up, the UITextField doesn't. Any idea of what has changed so much since iOS9 and iOS 9.1? The answer you have linked is not recommended. You should not set the view controller view's frame directly, especially not if you are using auto layout. Instead of changing the view's frame you should add a

I'm trying to set the animation for the view to move up when keyboard is hiding and appearing for the text fields and I got it to work perfectly fine, but when the focus moves from one text field to another, it doesn't work since the keyboard was already shown. In viewDidLoad, I registered the following: [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillShow:) name:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification object:nil]; [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillHide:) name:UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object:nil]; and then

(iOS8, Xcode6, Swift) Using Swift, how do I capture a tap on the "Return" button? The doc at the following link specifies using the textFieldShouldReturn method: // Swift @optional func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField!) -> Bool Where I'm hung up is in the "_ textField" part. I've created the text field using Storyboard. How do I capture notifications for this specific text field? Do I need to create a new class and set it as a delegate for this text field?
