UISplitViewController detail-only inputAccessoryView

Solution

That's not possible to have `inputAccessoryView` only for one viewController in `UISplitViewController`. My way to do it is to have `inputAccessoryView` as container and have subview in it with `320px` offset.

 - (void)setFrame:(CGRect)frame
{
    if (RUNNING_ON_IPAD)
    {
        CGFloat superviewWidth = self.superview.bounds.size.width;

        CGFloat offset = 321.f;
        frame.origin.x = offset;
        frame.size.width = superviewWidth - offset;
    }

    [super setFrame:frame];

}

Problem

I am trying to imitate Apple's iMessage application in terms of the message input toolbar. Apple has a `UIToolbar` which is the input accessory view of a `UITextView` it contains, and also the `inputAccessoryView` of the actual view. That way, the toolbar is always present, and when the keyboard appears, it slides with the keyboard. On the iPad, they seem to have a `UISplitViewController`, and the toolbar is part of the detail view controller. Now, when I have the same set up, my detail view's input accessory toolbar stretches to the whole width, so just like the keyboard, it also overlaps the master view controller. Apple, on the other hand, somehow managed to restrict the input accessory to the constraints of the detail view. How can I do that?
