UITextView - How to remain cursor after hide keyboard - cursor

Question

I'm trying to make a UITextView that user could input text and emoticons.
And I got a problem with the cursor displaying.
My goal is to make the cursor appears as normal while selecting emoticon(Keyboard is hidden).
I know it could be done because a app called "Kakao Story" have the feature.
Does anybody have a solution about it?? Thanks.

I found a way to make keyboardView hidden to access my purpose.
Here is the code
+ (void)hideKeyboard
{
for (UIWindow *aWindow in [[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows]) {
for (UIView *possibleKeyboard in [aWindow subviews]) {
UIView *keyboardView = [self getPeripheralHostViewFromView:possibleKeyboard];
if (keyboardView) {
[keyboardView setHidden:YES];
}
}
}
}
+ (void)unhideKeyboard
{
for (UIWindow *aWindow in [[UIApplication sharedApplication] windows]) {
for (UIView *possibleKeyboard in [aWindow subviews]) {
UIView *keyboardView = [self getPeripheralHostViewFromView:possibleKeyboard];
if (keyboardView) {
[keyboardView setHidden:NO];
}
}
}
}
+ (UIView *)getPeripheralHostViewFromView:(UIView *)superView
{
if ([superView.description hasPrefix:#"<UIPeripheralHostView"]) {
return superView;
}else if([superView.description hasPrefix:#"<UIKBInputBackdropView"]) {
return superView.superview;
}else {
for (UIView *subView in superView.subviews) {
UIView *keyboardHostView = [self getPeripheralHostViewFromView:subView];
if (keyboardHostView) {
return keyboardHostView;
}
}
}
return nil;
}
