I'm trying to write Custom Keyboard Extension . I'm looking for the way to know where the cursor is on UITextField , UITextView ...etc in CustomKeyboardExtension ... but I don't see anything like that. I saw SwiftKey app ( http://swiftkey.com ) can do that (or do something like that). When I change the cursor, suggestion-text will change (see below pictures). Q: How can we get current text selection? ... UPDATE: 29/09/2014 Ok, I'm so foolish. We can use documentContextBeforeInput , documentContextAfterInput methods of textDocumentProxy property. I thought that "Before","After" are about the

I have a simple UIInputViewController subclass with only two overridden methods. I use this input view controller as inputAccessoryViewController on my UIViewController subclass which becomes first responder. I try to specify height of inputView by adding constraint as Apple documentation recommends.

I've spent hours trying to figure out how to create/then get a custom inputView to work.

Apple documentation has seemed light on how to get this to work and the many tutorials I've have seen have been using Obj-C (which I have been unable to convert over

Unfortunately I stumble in to two main problems: 1) I get null in this callback: - (void)textDidChange:(id<UITextInput>)textInput 2) I only get partial String When I call these methods: - [self.textDocumentProxy documentContextAfterInput]; - [self.textDocumentProxy documentContextBeforeInput]; I want to get the whole string in the text input the user is currently editing what do you suggest i do? Thanks! I found How To. - (void)doSomething{ dispatch_async(inputQueue,

In Custom Keyboard Extension , we can't use `didRotateFromInterfaceOrientation:(UIInterfaceOrientation)fromInterfaceOrientation` and sharedApplication . I need to detect portrait or landscape in keyboard when rotate. How can i detect when orientation change in Custom Keyboard extension? Matt In order to update your custom keyboard when the orientation changes, override viewDidLayoutSubviews in the UIInputViewController . As far as I can tell, when a rotation occurs this method is always called. Additionally, as the traditional [UIApplication sharedApplication] statusBarOrientation] doesn't
