How to dismiss number keyboard after tapping outside of the textfield?

Question

How would you dismiss the keyboard from the UITextField when tapping outside of the keyboard? I have tried resignFirstResponder() and it only exits after typing one number. I have also tried textField.inputView = UIView.frame(frame: CGRectZero). I have seen many Objective-C verisons of what I'm asking but I need the Swift equivalent because I have no programming experience in Objective-C.

Answer 1

You could also use this method to dismiss the keyboard when pressing 'Return'

func textFieldShouldReturn(textField: UITextField!) -> Bool {
        self.view.endEditing(true);
        return false;
}

Make sure to set your delegate
