IPHONE: ABPeoplePickerNavigationController hidden navigation bar

Question

Hello I have a ABPeoplePickerNavigationController, on creation is set its navigationBar hidden.

peoplePickerController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;

Answer 1

If you believe this is a bug you should submit it to http://bugreporter.apple.com.

To me it also sounds like a bug, but I'd double-check with the documentation to make sure. If it doesn't mention anything, then I suggest reporting the bug.

Edit: On the other hand, I would think setting the navigation bar here to be hidden is a bad idea. Is there a particular reason for wanting to hide it?

Answer 2

The safest and simplest method is to track when the keyboard hides/shows.

- (void)keyboardWillHide:(NSNotification *)notification
{
    peoplePickerController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
}

- (void)hideNavbarAndKeepHidden
{        
    peoplePickerController.navigationBar.hidden = YES;
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] addObserver:self selector:@selector(keyboardWillHide:) name:UIKeyboardWillHideNotification object:nil];   
}

- (void)dealloc
{
    [[NSNotificationCenter defaultCenter] removeObserver:self];
    [super dealloc];
}
