I figured out how to move my toolbar with button and text field with the appearing keyboard:
- (void) liftMainViewWhenKeybordAppears:(NSNotification*)aNotification
{
NSDictionary* userInfo = [aNotification userInfo];
NSTimeInterval animationDuration;
UIViewAnimationCurve animationCurve;
CGRect keyboardFrame;
[[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationCurveUserInfoKey] getValue:&animationCurve];
[[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardAnimationDurationUserInfoKey] getValue:&animationDuration];
[[userInfo objectForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] getValue:&keyboardFrame];
[UIView beginAnimations:nil context:nil];
[UIView setAnimationDuration:animationDuration];
[UIView setAnimationCurve:animationCurve];
[self.navigationController.toolbar setFrame:CGRectMake(self.navigationController.toolbar.frame.origin.x,
self.navigationController.toolbar.frame.origin.y - keyboardFrame.size.height +self.navigationController.toolbar.frame.size.height,
self.navigationController.toolbar.frame.size.width,
self.navigationController.toolbar.frame.size.height)];
[UIView commitAnimations];
}
Everything works fine but there is a small gap between the moved toolbar and the keyboard:
and I can't figure out the problem? What could be the problem or is that the expected behavior?
Thanks!
Try the following for calculating the new frame size:
CGRect kbFrameBegin;
[[userInfo valueForKey:UIKeyboardFrameBeginUserInfoKey] getValue: &kbFrameBegin];
CGRect kbFrameEnd;
[[userInfo valueForKey:UIKeyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] getValue: &kbFrameEnd];
CGRect frame = self.navigationController.toolbar.frame;
frame.size.height -= abs(kbFrameBegin.origin.y - kbFrameEnd.origin.y);
[self.navigationController.toolbar setFrame:frame];
