iPad keyboard will not dismiss if navigation controller presentation style is "form sheet".
- by Kalle
UPDATE: This is apparently "works as intended" classed by Apple. See accepted answer below for details.
Update: this question is about a behavior discovered in the iPad keyboard, where it refuses to be dismissed if shown in a modal dialog with a navigation controller.
Basically, if I present the navigation controller with the following line:
navigationController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
The keyboard refuses to be dismissed. If I comment out this line, the keyboard goes away fine.

I've got two textFields, username and password; username has a Next button and password has a Done button. The keyboard won't go away if I present this in a modal navigation controller.
WORKS
broken *b = [[broken alloc] initWithNibName:@"broken" bundle:nil];
[self.view addSubview:b.view];
DOES NOT WORK
broken *b = [[broken alloc] initWithNibName:@"broken" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController =
[[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:b];
navigationController.modalPresentationStyle = UIModalPresentationFormSheet;
navigationController.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
[navigationController release];
[b release];
If I remove the navigation controller part and present 'b' as a modal view controller by itself, it works. Is the navigation controller the problem?
WORKS
broken *b = [[broken alloc] initWithNibName:@"broken" bundle:nil];
b.modalTransitionStyle = UIModalTransitionStyleFlipHorizontal;
[self presentModalViewController:b animated:YES];
[b release];
WORKS
broken *b = [[broken alloc] initWithNibName:@"broken" bundle:nil];
UINavigationController *navigationController =
[[UINavigationController alloc]
initWithRootViewController:b];
[self presentModalViewController:navigationController animated:YES];
[navigationController release];
[b release];
