2008-05-15 Thread Stuart Carnie
If I want to implement my own keyboard, I'd like it to behave similarly to the built-in iPhone keyboard. Specifically, when a key receives a 'touch' it pops out above the key, so the user can see it. As I understand, the UIKeyboard class is derived from UIView. When you touch one of the keys on
