Dismissing keyboard in content controller when sliding left and back again

[ptclarke]

Have a problem with keyboard dismissal in a content controller. Resolved but not sure it is the best way:

Scenario: default segue slides to content controller with 3 text fields, tap on any text field, keyboard appears. Tap on done, keyboard disappears, tap on any text field, keyboard appears. Slide to left menu controller, keyboard still appears as editing has not ended in the content controller.

Solution in left menu controller (slide delegate) is to end editing in the content controller on slideMenuWillSlideToSide as follows:
// end editing and ensure keyboard hidden on visible controller
-(void) slideMenuWillSlideToSide:(UINavigationController *)selectedContent{
if ([[[selectedContent visibleViewController] view] respondsToSelector:@selector(endEditing:)]){
[[[selectedContent visibleViewController] view] endEditing:YES];
}
}

Would appreciate advice, Must be missing something, surely managing the keyboard must be easier than this.....
