Hi,
I need to set on UITextField keyboard type similar to NamePhonePad. But by default keyboard opens on letter characters, and I would like to open on numbers as default and has letters as alternative view.

Is there a way to revert order of default and alternate view of a keyboard of given type or should I create a new keyboard? If so how can be this implement? Maybe there are some pods that have such design numbers + letters as an alternative view.

Thank You
Hari
