Getting the first responder... Unless you want to use the private [view firstResponder] this seems to be the only legal way. Or am I wrong?

FirstResponder.m

UIView *PSPDFFindFirstResponderBeneathView(UIView *view) {
    // Stop if e.g. we show an UIAlertView with a text field.
    if (UIApplication.sharedApplication.keyWindow != view.window) return nil;

    // Search recursively for first responder.
    for (UIView *childView in view.subviews) {
        if ([childView respondsToSelector:@selector(isFirstResponder)] && childView.isFirstResponder) return childView;
        UIView *result = PSPDFFindFirstResponderBeneathView(childView);
        if (result) return result;
    }
    return nil;
}

Hi @steipete,

Just wanted to make sure, the link you provided makes use of the "findFirstResponder" action.. Is this not a private API? I can only find mention of it in Apple's macOS documentation, not iOS.

Thx!
