How to disable the copy paste functionality in SkyFloatingLabelTextField in swift?


I am using the SkyFloatingLabelTextField class for UITextfield,How can I disable the Copy and paste functionality on this textfiled.


Solution

  • Create a custom class inherited from SkyFloatingLabelTextField class and then assign.

    class FloatingTextField: SkyFloatingLabelTextField {
        open override func canPerformAction(_ action: Selector, withSender sender: Any?) -> Bool {
            if action == #selector(UIResponderStandardEditActions.paste(_:)) ||
                action == #selector(UIResponderStandardEditActions.copy(_:)) {
                return false
            }
            return super.canPerformAction(action, withSender: sender)
        }
    }
    

    If you want for the whole project and all textfield add this extension.

    extension SkyFloatingLabelTextField {
        open override func canPerformAction(_ action: Selector, withSender sender: Any?) -> Bool {
            if action == #selector(UIResponderStandardEditActions.paste(_:)) ||
                action == #selector(UIResponderStandardEditActions.copy(_:)) {
                return false
            }
            return super.canPerformAction(action, withSender: sender)
        }
    }
