Hide keyboard when scroll UITableView

In my app i want hide keyboard when i start scrolling UITableView. I search about this in internet, and most answer i开发者_如何学JAVAs subclassing UITableView (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3499810/tapping-a-uiscrollview-to-hide-the-keyboard).

I made subclass but it's dont work.

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>

@protocol MyUITableViewDelegate <NSObject>
@optional
- (void)myUITableViewTouchesBegan;
@end

@interface MyUITableView : UITableView <UITableViewDelegate, UIScrollViewDelegate> {
    id<MyUITableViewDelegate> delegate;
}
@end

.m file

#import "MyUITableView.h"

@implementation MyUITableView

- (void)scrollViewDidScroll:(UIScrollView *)scrollView{
    NSLog(@"delegate scrollView"); //this is dont'work
    [super scrollViewDidScroll:scrollView];
}

- (void)touchesBegan:(NSSet *)touches withEvent:(UIEvent *)event {
    NSLog(@"delegate myUITableViewTouchesBegan"); // work only here
    [delegate myUITableViewTouchesBegan];
    [super touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event];

}

- (void)dealloc {
...

I use this class like this. But delegate function myUITableViewTouchesBegan don't work in ViewController

.h

#import <UIKit/UIKit.h>
#import "MyUITableView.h"

@interface FirstViewController : UIViewController <UITableViewDelegate, UISearchBarDelegate, MyUITableViewDelegate> {
    MyUITableView *myTableView;
    UISearchBar *searchBar; 
}

@property(nonatomic,retain) IBOutlet MyUITableView *myTableView;
...

.m

- (void) myUITableViewTouchesBegan{
    NSLog(@"myUITableViewTouchesBegan");
    [searchBar resignFirstResponder];
}

I have some troubles with this implemenation:

1) myUITableViewTouchesBegan dont work in ViewController

2) NSLog from MyUITableView.m - NSLog(@"delegate myUITableViewTouchesBegan"); work only when i touch table. How made it's work also when i start scrolling?

I try override scrollViewDidScroll but comiler said that MyUITableVIew may be don't respond on this string [super scrollViewDidScroll:scrollView];

Here is the cleanest way to achieve this in iOS 7.0 and above:

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissModeOnDrag;

Or to dismiss interactively when touching:

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissModeInteractive;

Or in Swift:

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = .onDrag

To dismiss interactively:

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = .interactive

Not sure why you need to subclass UITableView for this.

In the view controller that contains the plain UITableView, try adding this:

- (void)scrollViewWillBeginDragging:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
{
    [searchBar resignFirstResponder];
}

You can do this right in Interface Builder. Select your UITableView and open the Attributes Inspector. In the Scroll View section set the Keyboard field to Dismiss on Drag.

Just to add an update to the answers above. The below worked for me in Swift 1.2

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissMode.OnDrag

or

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissMode.Interactive

With Swift 5

To hide the keyboard when scrolling the TableView and stop editing properly, we still need to combine two types of answers:

1. Set the keyboard dismiss mode in IB (as Kyle explained) or in ViewDidLoad() code (as Pei explained) for instance:

tableView.keyboardDismissMode = .onDrag

2. Force the current textfield to resign as first responder (as in Vasily's answer). We just need to add the following to our UITableViewController class

    override func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
        if !tableView.isDecelerating {
            view.endEditing(true)
        }
    }

Full Sample

ViewController

import UIKit

class ViewController: UIViewController {

    @IBOutlet weak var tableView: UITableView!
    @IBOutlet weak var searchBar: UISearchBar!


    override func viewDidLoad() {
        super.viewDidLoad()
        tableView.dataSource = self
        tableView.delegate = self
    }
}

// MARK: - UITableViewDataSource

extension ViewController: UITableViewDataSource {

    func numberOfSections(in tableView: UITableView) -> Int {
        return 1
    }

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, numberOfRowsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
        return 100
    }

    func tableView(_ tableView: UITableView, cellForRowAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> UITableViewCell {
        let cell =  UITableViewCell(style: .subtitle, reuseIdentifier: nil)
        cell.textLabel?.text = "Title"
        cell.detailTextLabel?.text = "\(indexPath)"
        return cell
    }
}

// MARK: - UITableViewDelegate

extension ViewController: UITableViewDelegate {

    func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
        if !tableView.isDecelerating {
            view.endEditing(true)
        }
    }
}

Result

Working solution without writing single line of code in your Controller:

As your question is to handle the hide keyboard with one condition only (on scroll). But here I am recommending one solution to handle textfield and keyboard together which works like charm for UIViewController, UITableView and UIScrollView. The interesting fact is that You do not need to write any single line of code.

Here you go: TPKeyboardAvoiding - An awesome solution to handle keyboard and scroll

After iOS 7, you can simple use the tableview property

Swift 3.0+

myTableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissMode.OnDrag

ObjectiveC

myTableView.keyboardDismissMode = UIScrollViewKeyboardDismissModeOnDrag;

For earlier versions, implementing the scroll view delegate could work.

func scrollViewDidScroll(_ scrollView: UIScrollView) {
        view.endEditing(true)
}
