I have a custom UITextField with a rightView containing a custom UIView with a draw rect (arrow) image. How can I get the leftView fire the same action as the textfield?

@implementation CustomDropDownTextField

-(id)initWithCoder:(NSCoder *)aDecoder {
    if(self = [super initWithCoder:aDecoder]) {

        // Border Color of the UITextField - light gray
        self.delegate = self;
        self.layer.borderColor = [[UIColor colorWithRed: 0.827 green: 0.827 blue: 0.827 alpha: 1] CGColor];;
        self.layer.borderWidth= 1.0f;

        self.rightView = [CustomDateDropDownArrowView default];
        self.rightViewMode = UITextFieldViewModeAlways;
    }
    return self;
}
@end

I have this custom textField with a custom UIView as the righView. I just want to fire didBeginEditing even if the user clicks on its rightView.

Thanks in advance.

This is kind of vague, do you have any code your working with or screen shots of what you are trying to do? – Petahwil Apr 18 '14 at 14:02
Does anybody has a clue? – Moonstar Apr 18 '14 at 15:23
You can add a TapGestureRecognizer for your rightView and make textView to becomeFirstResponder in its handler. Need some code? – user2260054 Apr 22 '14 at 10:03
Thanks. I will try it out and see if I can manage to get it to work. – Moonstar Apr 22 '14 at 17:55
