Right, to begin my question, here's some screenies of the problem already solved by the Spotify app:
Spotify's Step 1: Standard UISearchBar not in editing mode.
Spotify's Step 2: UISearchBar now in editing mode. Search term entered. Cancel button slides in from the right, and the clear button (grey x) appears.
Spotify's Step 3: Cancel button pressed; keyboard slides out and the search bar is no longer in editing mode. Search term remains and the grey x button is now hidden.
At present, the following code fires off when my cancel button is pressed:
- (void)searchBarCancelButtonClicked:(UISearchBar *)searchBar {
[searchBar resignFirstResponder];
[searchBar setShowsCancelButton:NO animated:YES];
}
Which results in:
My Step 3: Search bar now not in editing mode. Cancel button and keyboard has slid out. Search term remains but so does the grey x.
So, my question is this: given that -resignFirstResponder
(and -endEditing:
, FYI) does not hide the grey x button when a search bar has had text entered into it, how does one hide it?
Thanks again, friends.
