Action of the "Go" button of the ios keyboard
Objective-C
Assuming you're using a UITextField, you could use the <UITextFieldDelegate>
method textFieldShouldReturn
.
- (BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField *)textField{ [textField resignFirstResponder]; // Dismiss the keyboard. // Execute any additional code return YES;}
Don't forget to assign the class you put this code in as the text field's delegate.
self.someTextField.delegate = self;
Or if you'd prefer to use UIControlEvents, you can do the following
[someTextField addTarget:self action:@selector(textFieldDidReturn:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventEditingDidEndOnExit];- (void)textFieldDidReturn:(UITextField *)textField{ // Execute additional code}
See @Wojtek Rutkowski's answer to see how to do this in Interface Builder.
Swift
UITextFieldDelegate
class SomeViewController: UIViewController, UITextFieldDelegate { let someTextField = UITextField() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() someTextField.delegate = self } func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField) -> Bool { textField.resignFirstResponder() // Dismiss the keyboard // Execute additional code return true }}
UIControlEvents
class SomeViewController: UIViewController { let someTextField = UITextField() override func viewDidLoad() { super.viewDidLoad() // Action argument can be Selector("textFieldDidReturn:") or "textFieldDidReturn:" someTextField.addTarget(self, action: "textFieldDidReturn:", forControlEvents: .EditingDidEndOnExit) } func textFieldDidReturn(textField: UITextField!) { textField.resignFirstResponder() // Execute additional code }}
You can connect UITextFiled
event Did End On Exit
in Connections Inspector
. It is triggered after tapping Go
/ Return
/ whatever you choose as Return Key
in Attributes Inspector
.
