Right now when the keyboard launches on my application it defaults to the letter side showing an alphabetical keyboard.
Question will be listed below images
keyboardType is property for a UITextField.
textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.UIKeyboardTypeNumberPad
and
textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.UIKeyboardTypeDefault
is how you can switch between the two modes programatically. Hope that helps.
To switch the Keyboardlayout programmatically you have to mutate UITextfield's keyboardType attribute.
Try
textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.NumberPad;
or
textField.keyboardType = UIKeyboardType.PhonePad;
