Xcode – How to close, exit or dismiss Decimal Pad when I click outside a textfield?

My Swift app required the user to enter decimal values on a UITextfield. The Decimal Pad appears when the user click inside the textfield. Then the user enter the amount and click the Calculate Button to see results.

I want to close the Decimal Pad when the user click outside the de UITextfield or outside the keyboard.

My App looks like this:

    Solution is:

    1- Create a Tab Gesture Recognizer from the object library (+) to the main View.

    2- Create an @IBAction connection in the functions area of the program. This step automatically creates this.

    @IBAction func dismissKeyboard(_ sender: Any) {
}

    3- Add a blank line in that function to include this line:

    @IBAction func dismissKeyboard(_ sender: Any) {
    self.view.endEditing(true)  // The added line
    }

    step: 1 – create IBOutlet of the UIView

    @IBOutlet weak var vwParent: UIView!

    step: 2 – assign tap gesture to UIView

    let tap = UITapGestureRecognizer(target: self, action: #selector(self.handleTap(_:)))
vwParent.addGestureRecognizer(tap)

    step: 2 – create an event handler(@objc) method for handling the operation when UIView is tapped.

    @objc func handleTap(_ sender: UITapGestureRecognizer? = nil) {
   self.view.endEditing(true)
}

    Just use the IQKeyboardManager library, it will solve all your keyboard problems. A "Close" button will appear above the keyboard, a tap outside the keyboard to hide will also work in any controller without additional settings
