Question

I Know there is few question on this site talk about this… but I don’t find real answer that i can use…

I have a form that contain common UITextField and a UIButton that supposedly show UIDatePicker sliding from bottom when user click the button…

The main question is:

• how to show UIDatePicker over the TabBar like iphone keyboard did
• how make the UIDatePicker is behave like a keyboard, so when i click UITextField while
  selecting date, it changed to keyboard and vice versa… like iphone contact did.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Set input View of your textfield to be a UIDatePicker object:
UITextField has following properties.
@property (readwrite, retain) UIView *inputView;

Use following code:

yourTextfield.inputView = yourDatePicker;

so instead of keyboard which is default for UITextfield, your picker will appear when textfield is tapped….
