Clear text in text box

Question

I am currently creating a custom keyboard and I am almost ready. One of the problems I have is the delete button. When the user deletes the delete button, he does what he has to do and deletes the previous text entry. However, when the user holds the button down, nothing happens. How to make sure that when the user holds the delete button, the keyboard is continuously deleted, as on a standard ios keyboard?

Answer 1

You must also register for the action UIControlEventTouchDownRepeatfor the delete button below.

[deleteButton addTarget:self action:@selector(deleteCharacter:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDownRepeat];
