TOPIC: Implementing an Input Mask in a SCTextFieldCell

Implementing an Input Mask in a SCTextFieldCell 1 year, 8 months ago #1

I am trying to create an input mask that checks/changes the textfield value with every character entered. Ex: User enters "5", field updates to $0.05, user hits 5 again, field updates to $0.55, again, $5.55, and so on.

My ViewController is setup as the SCTableViewModelDelegate and my key clicks are successfully making it to tableViewModel:valueChangedForRowAtIndexPath. I can access everything in the field using "tableViewModel.activeCell".

Where I'm lost is trying to get the newly formatted value to display in the textfield. I can update the textLabel and detailTextLabel on the fly...but I just can't seem to figure out how to update the actual text field I am typing in. I can capture the keyclicks using tableViewModel.activeCell.boundValue but updating this doesn't update what is displayed in the text field.

Is there some other property or delegated method I should be using? I get the feeling I am making something simple into something difficult

Thanks!

Is the following what you're looking for?

 
- (void)tableViewModel:(SCTableViewModel *)tableViewModel valueChangedForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath
{
  SCTableViewCell *cell = [tableViewModel cellAtIndexPath:indexPath];
  if([cell isKindOfClass:[SCTextFieldCell class]])
  {
   SCTextFieldCell *textFieldCell = (SCTextFieldCell *)cell;
 
   textFieldCell.textField.text = ...//whatever text you want here
  }
}

Hope this helps
