KeyboardKit change log

• 8.1.0
  • Adds KeyboardMapView to let users scroll, zoom and rotate maps using a keyboard.
• 8.0.0
  • Increases the deployment target from iOS 12 to iOS 13.
    • The following deprecated UIKit APIs are no longer respected: isModalInPopover, popoverPresentationControllerShouldDismissPopover(_:), popoverPresentationControllerDidDismissPopover(_:).
    • KeyboardKit didn’t run correctly on iOS 12 since version 5.1.0.
  • Adds a localised title (shown in the discoverability HUD) for KeyboardDatePicker’s Go to Today command, which is now available as KeyboardDatePicker.goToTodayKeyCommand.
• 7.1.0
  • Adds common SwiftUI KeyboardShortcuts that can be used with the .keyboardShortcut modifier on a Button.
• 7.0.0
  • Xcode 14.0 or later is now required. (Xcode 14.1 or later for Mac Catalyst)
  • Adds support for iOS 16.
  • Disables KeyboardTextView’s find commands when the text view’s built-in UIFindInteraction is enabled.
  • Fixes adjustments to the date of KeyboardDatePicker within the same month being animated on iOS 16, which made it feel less responsive.
• 6.0.0
  • Xcode 13.1 is now required.
  • Adds support for macOS 12 Monterey.
  • Restores demo app key commands on iOS 14 and lower. (This was a regression in 5.1.0.)
• 5.1.0
  • Adds support for including key commands from KeyboardKit in the discoverability HUD on iPad or menu bar on Mac using UIMenuBuilder via many new public DiscoverableKeyCommand properties.
  • Adds demonstrating setting up the main menu in demo app’s AppDelegate.
  • Changes the default value of the canOpenSettings property of KeyboardApplication to true if the app provides a Settings.bundle resource.
  • Removes unnecessary commands on Mac Catalyst to open Preferences, open a new window, close a window, and cycle the active window. These are all provided by the system on Mac Catalyst.
  • Improves conditions for when text view key commands can be performed.
• 5.0.1
  • Fixes a potential crash when selecting or moving items in a collection view. This might occur if the collection view is hidden.
• 5.0.0
  • Xcode 13 is now required.
  • Adds support for iOS 15.
  • Adds integration with the UIKit focus system where it’s available.
    • When the focus system is available, KeyboardKit will no longer provide key commands for tab navigation in split views and arrow key navigation in collection views and table views. The focus system is in some ways less capable than KeyboardKit’s implementation, but it provides other significant advantages. Please see Features.md for more details about the pros of cons of each.
    • First responder management should no longer be necessary when a focus system is available. The demo app has been updated to show this.
    • KeyboardScrollView and KeyboardDatePicker are now focusable as part of the tab loop. They will consume arrow key inputs to scroll or change the date while focused.
    • KeyboardDatePicker uses a UIFocusHaloEffect by default to show a halo when focused.
    • Moving items in a table view or collection view and deleting items in a table view will act on the focused item instead of the selected item.
  • Adds the KeyboardBarButtonItem properties keyCommandWantsPriorityOverSystemBehavior, keyCommandAllowsAutomaticLocalization and keyCommandAllowsAutomaticMirroring to forward to iOS 15’s new properties on the bar button item’s UIKeyCommand.
  • KeyboardWindow no longer allows the window to become the first responder, which increases the length of the responder chain at scene connection.
  • Fixes key commands for rewind and fast-forward not being possible due to the commands for going back taking precedence even when unavailable.
• 4.4.1
  • Fixes keyboard scrolling sometimes being allowed when content should not be scrollable due to content insets.
  • Fixes the UIKit focus system interfering with KeyboardDatePicker on Mac Catalyst.
  • Fixes a reference to the first responder being kept longer than needed.
• 4.4.0
  • Adds commands to move (reorder) the selected item in collection views and table views.
• 4.3.1
  • Fixes overriding some API from some KeyboardKit classes not being possible because it was marked public instead of open.
  • Fixes the Jump to Selection command in KeyboardTextView not working for a plain insertion point (i.e. no selection, which is modelled as a selection with a length of zero).
• 4.3.0
  • Adds a Define command in KeyboardTextView to show UIReferenceLibraryViewController for the selected text.
• 4.2.0
  • Adds KeyboardDatePicker to let users use arrow keys to spatially change the selected date.
• 4.1.1
  • Fixes spatial arrow key selection in collections views not respecting flipsHorizontallyInOppositeLayoutDirection, developmentLayoutDirection and the way UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout and UICollectionViewFlowLayout can flip even when these properties specify that flipping should not occur.
• 4.1.0
  • Adds calling the UITabBarControllerDelegate methods shouldSelect and didSelect when changing tab using a keyboard in KeyboardTabBarController.
  • Adds deleting rows using the delete key in the table view example in the demo app.
  • Improves demo app by making the large title visible initially in the sidebar without needing to manually scroll it a tiny little bit.
• 4.0.1
  • Improves table view deletion by selecting the new bottom row after deleting the bottom row.
  • Fixes the Delete command not being available in KeyboardTableViewController when the view controller was first responder rather than the table view.
  • Fixes the Back command being available incorrectly when the responder chain contains both a KeyboardNavigationController and another UINavigationController that is not a KeyboardNavigationController. Code style has been improved in other places to avoid this sort of thing happening again.
  • Fixes KeyboardSplitViewController disabling collapsing into the compact column.
• 4.0.0
  • Xcode 12.2 is now required.
  • Add support for Mac Catalyst in the demo app (optimised for Mac).
  • Fixes the UIKit focus system interfering with selection on Mac Catalyst.
• 3.0.2
  • Works around a UIKit issue where responders in the primary column of a UISplitViewController could unexpectedly provide key commands when the first responder is in the secondary column.
• 3.0.0 / 3.0.1 — Read more in the blog post: What’s New in KeyboardKit for iOS 14?
  • Xcode 12 is now required.
  • Adds support for iOS 14.
  • Increases the deployment target from iOS 11 to iOS 12.
  • The demo app now requires iOS 14.
  • Adds KeyboardSplitViewController to help moving first responder status between columns in a split view.
  • Adds warning logging when trying to set the primaryAction or menu on a KeyboardBarButton since those can’t be activated with a keyboard.
  • Adds KeyboardCollectionViewDelegate and KeyboardTableViewDelegate to be notified of selection changes using arrow keys and to disallow clearing selection with escape.
  • Adds an overhaul of the demo app to use a sidebar (or navigation stack) as the root view. The tab bar example has been moved to a modal.
  • Adds more sophisticated first responder management in the demo app.
  • Adds an example showing a list with UICollectionView.
  • Adds an example showing UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout with nested groups.
  • Adds an example showing a triple column split view (available as a modal).
• 2.1.0
  • Resolves project settings warnings with Xcode 12.
  • Adds support for selection wrapping in any UICollectionViewLayout.
  • Adds selecting the last item initially with UICollectionViewCompositionalLayout when pressing the up arrow with vertical scrolling or the trailing arrow with a horizontal scrolling.
  • Fixes selection in collection views not working as expected when there are supplementary views, decoration views, cells with an alpha of zero, or items for which the delegate returns false to collectionView(_:shouldHighlightItemAt:). This issue affected UICollectionLayoutListConfiguration.
  • Fixes selection in collection views sometimes shifting into an adjacent row or column when there is no padding between items.
  • Fixes the back command not working with nested UINavigationControllerss.
• 2.0.1
  • Adds support for Swift Packager Manager.
• 2.0.0
  • Xcode 11.4 is now required.
  • KeyboardKit scroll views will no longer send their delegate scrollViewDidEndScrollingAnimation(_:) after keyboard-driven animations end. Instead, the scroll view’s delegate can conform to KeyboardScrollingDelegate to receive callbacks when keyboard-driven scrolling animations start or finish.
• 1.2.1
  • Changes Page Up and Page Down to semantic directions so they will scroll horizontally in a scroll view that can only scroll horizontally.
  • Fixes scroll views with isPagingEnabled set ending up off page boundaries if starting keyboard scrolling while the scrolling view was in-between pages while decelerating from touch scrolling.
  • Fixes keyboard scrolling resulting in an incorrect scroll position when content size is smaller than the bounds (seen as unwanted scrolling in the non-scrolling direction).
