Question

I have a application that allows the user to tap and move a UITextField around the screen. Is there a way to save the current postion of the UITextField?

Answer 1

Somewhere in your header file, you want to make a CGPoint that stores the current location. You also want a method to save the current location of the UITextField:

CGPoint currentLocation;
-(void) saveCurrentPosition;

When you want to save the current position:

[self saveCurrentPosition];

saveCurrentPosition should look something like this:

- (void) saveCurrentPosition
{
    CGRect currentFrame = myTextField.frame;
    currentLocation = currentFrame.origin;
}
