I wanted to add a drop down box to get the user to select from some pre-defined values in my iPhone app but as that’s not possible I thought I would use a picker instead. How do I get the textview to prompt a picker value to populate the Textview with the selection?

    You could set a UIPickerView as the inputView to the UITextView and listen for changes to the picker and adjust the content of the UITextView accordingly. You will probably still see a cursor though.

    The inputView essentially replaces the keyBoard. External keyboard can however still enter normal text into the UITextView unless you prevent this via the delegate method

    - (BOOL)textView:(UITextView *)textView shouldChangeTextInRange:(NSRange)range replacementText:(NSString *)text
