After switching to iOS8, I'm getting weird behavior when I move views during a keyboard transition. Can anyone explain what's going on?
Here's a minimal example to demonstrate the problem. I have a simple view with a UITextField
and a UIButton
. The function nudgeUp
moves the text field and the button up by 10 points. It is triggered either by the buttonPressed
callback, or the keyboardWillShow
callback.
When I tap the button, the code works as expected: buttonPressed
calls nudgeUp
and the button and text field jump up by 10 points.
When I tap the text field, keyboardWillShow
calls nudgeUp
, but the behaviour is very different. The button and text field immediately jump down by 10 points, and then slide back up to their original position as the keyboard shows itself.
Why is this happening? How can I regain control of animations during keyboard presentation in iOS8?
#import "ViewController.h"
@implementation ViewController
- (void)viewDidLoad {
[super viewDidLoad];
[[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self
selector:@selector(keyboardWillShow:)
name:UIKeyboardWillShowNotification
object:nil];
}
- (void)keyboardWillShow:(NSNotification *)notification
{
// Called when the keyboard appears.
[self nudgeUp];
}
- (IBAction)buttonPressed:(id)sender {
[self nudgeUp];
}
- (void)nudgeUp
{
CGRect newTextFieldFrame = self.textField.frame;
newTextFieldFrame.origin.y -= 10;
self.textField.frame = newTextFieldFrame;
CGRect newButtonFrame = self.button.frame;
newButtonFrame.origin.y -= 10;
self.button.frame = newButtonFrame;
}
