Can I dismiss the iPhone keyboard by touching the background of DialogViewController (MonoTouch.Dialog)? [duplicate]

Answer 1

In view controller:

public override void TouchesBegan (NSSet touches, UIEvent evt)
    {
        base.TouchesBegan (touches, evt);

        myField.ResignFirstResponder();
    }

Edit: From what I've read, you can use the TouchesBegan event for the cell subview instead of the table itself. I'm not positive that works. Good luck :)

His solution:

   var tap = new UITapGestureRecognizer ();
   tap.AddTarget (() =>{
       dvc.View.EndEditing (true);
   });
   dvc.View.AddGestureRecognizer (tap);
