Now let's adjust the properties of the
UITextField
. First, we want the
UITextField
to have helpful placeholder text, like
Enter Location Name
. Next, consider the keyboard.
When a
UITextField
is activated, a keyboard appears on the screen. (We'll see why
this happens later in this chapter.) The keyboard's appearance is determined by a set of the
UITextField
's properties called
UITextInputTraits
. One of these properties is
the type of the keyboard's return key. For this application, we want the return key to read
Done
.
Make these changes in the attributes inspector of the utilities area. Select the
UITex-
tField
and then, from the inspector selector, select the icon to reveal the attributes
inspector. Change the values for
Placeholder
and
Return Key
to match what is shown in
