ipad - Hide iOS Keyboard, but allow user to move cursor around -

i'd allow user move cursor around uitextarea tapping can do, don't want keyboard show.

is there method can override make possible?

if don't want show keyboard , cursor return no, @ end of

- (bool)textfieldshouldbeginediting:(uitextfield *)textfield {     /// stuff;      return no; }

another option:

uiview* dummyview = [[uiview alloc] initwithframe:cgrectmake(0, 0, 1, 1)]; mytextfield.inputview = dummyview;

add uiview (dummyview) uitextfield's inputview.

this not return keyboard display blinking cursor.
