how to show pickerview in uitextfield not the keyboard?
I want to show a UIPickerView on becoming FirstResponder of a UITextfield not the keyboard and fill the value in text field form the picker view. any one knows this? klaaspieter Edit: this answer was correct at the time of writing. Apple has since introduced inputView . Mafonya answer is what you should be doing nowadays. It is possible to prevent the keyboard from popping up. Set your class to be the delegate of the UITextField: textField.delegate = self and add: <UITextFieldDelegate> after your interface declaration (before the {) in the header file. Now implement textFieldShouldBeginEditing
