Question

I have an UITextView. Magnifying glass will appear if I select some text. Magnifying glass may appear below UITextView. Is it possible to restrict magnifying glass boundaries?

Answer 1

You need to subclass the UITextView and override canPreformAction like this :

- (BOOL)canPerformAction:(SEL)action withSender:(id)sender
{
    BOOL can = [super canPerformAction:action withSender:sender];

    if(action == @selector(paste:) || action == @selector(selectAll:) || action == @selector(select:))
        can = NO;

    return can;
}

This is will prevent the UIMenuController To Appear .. but the magnify glass will still shown.
