I have a basic sign up screen set up programmatically with the UI elements inside a view that is itself inside a scroll view.
The last UI element in the screen is a register button. I set up a keyboard notification observer with the Will Show and Will Hide notifications.
I am running this code on iPod touch 7th gen simulator.
My problem is when trying to read the maxY value of the sign up button and compare it to the keyboard minY it prints wrong numbers.
The keyboard is clearly blocking the register button which mean the button's maxY value will be greater the the keyboard minY value.
However the values printed shows that there is something wrong with the reading of the register button frame.
Here is my code:

CodePudding user response：
It's because the keyboard frame and the button frame are in two different coordinate systems. You cannot compare them directly. You need to convert the button frame to window coordinates before comparing them. Or else convert the keyboard frame to the button frame coordinates (the button's superview).
Actually what I typically do is convert the keyboard frame to the internal coordinates of the target view and compare that to the target view's bounds. For example:
// n is the notification
let d = n.userInfo!
var r = d[UIResponder.keyboardFrameEndUserInfoKey] as! CGRect
r = self.slidingView.convert(r, from:nil) // <- this is the key move!
let h = self.slidingView.bounds.intersection(r).height
That tells me whether the keyboard would cover the sliding view, and if so, by how much.
