Question

I have an image overlapping on the UITextView. I would like to hide the image when user started touching the text view and start editing. What code should i use?
I tried the following code but does not work.

-(IBAction)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView{
    img1.hidden=YES;
}

Answer 1

It should be:

- (void)textViewDidBeginEditing:(UITextView *)textView{
 img1.hidden=YES;
}

Also, don’t forget to implement the following so you can unhide it when the textView stops editing.

- (void)textViewDidEndEditing:(UITextView *)textView{
  img1.hidden=NO;
}

You also have to make sure your delegate is setup properly like:

myTextViewName.delegate = self; //This should probably go in the viewDidLoad section.

<UITextViewDelegate> //This should go after the @interface ViewController : UIViewController (or similar) in your headers file (.h). So it should look something like @interface ViewController : UIViewController <UITextViewDelegate>
