I've a custom keyboard view on my app positioned at the bottom of my screen, it's based on Fabrizio Prosperi's FPNumberPadView.
I also have a couple of UITextFields, I want this keyboard to ALWAYS be on screen, whether a textfield has the focus or not.
that is working, BUT, regardless of the position I initially assign to the keyboard on the screen, as soon as I tap on the first textfield (and becomes the first responder), it disappears and immediately slides into the screen as the regular system keyboard would.
This is what I want to get rid of. I want the keyboard at the bottom from the get go and as I tap the textfields they receive the characters from this custom keyboard.
Any tips / link / help on how to accomplish this?
thanks in advance
