About

XCDFormInputAccessoryView is a view to be used above the keyboard with previous, next and done buttons for navigating text fields.

XCDFormInputAccessoryView uses ARC (Automatic Reference Counting) and must be built with Xcode 4.5 or greater. It has been tested on iOS 4, 5 and 6.

Usage

In your UIViewController subclass, redeclare the inputAccessoryView property and create a new instance of XCDFormInputAccessoryView, for example in your viewDidLoad method:

#import "XCDFormInputAccessoryView.h"

@interface MyViewController ()
@property (nonatomic, strong) XCDFormInputAccessoryView *inputAccessoryView;
@end

@implementation MyViewController
- (void) viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    self.inputAccessoryView = [XCDFormInputAccessoryView new];
}
@end

If you want to have total control over what the Previous and Next buttons do, you should initialize XCDFormInputAccessoryView with the initWithResponders: method instead and pass an array of UIResponder instances. If you do not supply an array of responders, then XCDFormInputAccessoryView uses the following heuristic to find which text input views will be used:

1. Find all text fields and editable text views in the key window
2. Sort them using their frame origin vertical position
