How to use

// NOTE: maxCount = 0 to hide count
YIPopupTextView* popupTextView = [[YIPopupTextView alloc] initWithPlaceHolder:@"input here" maxCount:1000];
popupTextView.delegate = self;
popupTextView.caretShiftGestureEnabled = YES;   // default = NO
popupTextView.text = self.textView.text;
//popupTextView.editable = NO;                  // set editable=NO to show without keyboard

//[popupTextView showInView:self.view];
[popupTextView showInViewController:self]; // recommended, especially for iOS7

//
// NOTE:
// You can add your custom-button after calling -showInView:
// (it's better to add on either superview or superview.superview)
// https://github.com/inamiy/YIPopupTextView/issues/3
//
// [popupTextView.superview addSubview:customButton];
//

YIPopupTextViewButtonStyle

typedef NS_ENUM(NSInteger, YIPopupTextViewButtonStyle) {
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleNone,
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleRightCancel,          // "x" on the upper-right
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleRightDone,            // "check" on the upper-right
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleLeftCancelRightDone,
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleRightCancelAndDone,
    YIPopupTextViewButtonStyleLeftDone
};

For caret-shifting, it is better to use YISwipeShiftCaret for all UITextField/UITextViews.
