In Cocoa for Mac OS X, you have the next responder chain, where you can ask the text field what control should have focus next. This is what makes tabbing between text fields work. But since iOS devices do not have a keyboard, only touch, this concept has not survived the transition to Cocoa Touch.
This can be easily done anyway, with two assumptions:
- All "tabbable"
UITextField
s are on the same parent view.
- Their "tab-order" is defined by the tag property.
Assuming this you can override textFieldShouldReturn: as this:
-(BOOL)textFieldShouldReturn:(UITextField*)textField
{
NSInteger nextTag = textField.tag + 1;
// Try to find next responder
UIResponder* nextResponder = [textField.superview viewWithTag:nextTag];
if (nextResponder) {
// Found next responder, so set it.
[nextResponder becomeFirstResponder];
} else {
// Not found, so remove keyboard.
[textField resignFirstResponder];
}
return NO; // We do not want UITextField to insert line-breaks.
}
Add some more code, and the assumptions can be ignored as well.
Swift 4.0
func textFieldShouldReturn(_ textField: UITextField) -> Bool {
let nextTag = textField.tag + 1
// Try to find next responder
let nextResponder = textField.superview?.viewWithTag(nextTag) as UIResponder!
if nextResponder != nil {
// Found next responder, so set it
nextResponder?.becomeFirstResponder()
} else {
// Not found, so remove keyboard
textField.resignFirstResponder()
}
return false
}
If the superview of the text field will be a UITableViewCell then next responder will be
let nextResponder = textField.superview?.superview?.superview?.viewWithTag(nextTag) as UIResponder!
