How to customize the virtual keyboard?

Hello

I am looking for a way to customize the virtual keyboard. I want to customize keyboard and form location, places default keys in the keyboard for some specific languages, the keyboard, the size of the keyboard etc. However, the customization nearest you, I found on the API reference manual is to define the name of the Enter key and to use different layout of a set fixed (link). Construction of a new keyboard from scratch is not an option for me. And I want to use the default keyboard features (like pushing the key words of)

How can I customize the virtual keyboard by default?

A big no, no, you can't mess with the user of a BB keyboard! If you need a custom keyboard (let's say for a game), you will need to start over again.

    Hello

    You can declare the event directly click handler MXML online, you don't need the initfunc() on creationComplete:

    You need not switch in handleEvent, a line will do everything:

    TextBox.Text += button .label (event.currentTarget);

    The only advantage I see declaring all these components button in MXML, you can visually position the keys by using Design view in Flex Builder.

  • How to force the virtual keyboard to hide?

    I am developing an app for BB Storm and I need to force the virtual keyboard to hide and close pushing / croustilleur between the screens.  I tried to set the visibility state of the keyboard during the initialization of each screen via Screen.getVirtualKeyboard () .setVisibility (VirtualKeyboard.HIDE_FORCE), but it does not work.

    The documentation for the keyboard interaction and screen is sparse, at best, I wish RIM would improve their docs.

    I found the problem.  It turns out that only the control (not the screen) who "owns" the virtual keyboard can show/hide it.  So I was able to hide the keyboard by substituting the method onUnFocus of the input area and hide the keyboard.  This seems silly as the reference for the virtual keyboard is obtained from the screen object.

    protected void onUnfocus()
    {
    super.onUnfocus ();
           
    VirtualKeyboard vk is UiApplication.getUiApplication () .getActiveScreen () .getVirtualKeyboard ();.
    vk.setVisibility (VirtualKeyboard.HIDE);
    }

    Hello javierdl:

    Welcome to the Palm Forums. It would seem that this is a HomeBrew keyboard. I had both the preliminary questions and restart the unit solved mine. If it gets out of control, try another theme or uninstall it. You can also try to remove some of the most recent (various things) patches applied that could create a conflict. If you want to try again... The keyboard likes to be installed by itself, in General. Then restart. This opinion is not official even if, as the Palm does not support the keyboard interface. You may be able to find more help on that here both LIN

    Hope that helps... Let me know

  • hide the virtual keyboard hangs in Z10

    Hi, I'm porting android app to Z10.

    I use following code to hide the virtual keyboard in onCreate():

    =================================================

    InputMethodManager imm = (InputMethodManager) getSystemService (Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE);  imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow (mainActivity.this.getCurrentFocus () .getWindowToken (), inputMethodManager.HIDE_NOT_ALWAYS);

    =============================================

    However, it always crashes in BB10.2.

    Can someone tell me how to hide the virtual keyboard?

    Thank you

    I finally found the problem:
    1 when I have something to edit entry, click on the button 'Next' in the virtual keyboard, it will focus on the button.
    2. when I click the button, the "mainActivity.this.getCurrentFocus ()" is return NULL. This caused the problem

    Thanks anyway.

  • How can I stop the virtual keyboard appear gestures?

    Hello

    How can I stop the virtual keyboard to appear coincidentally in my game? There is no reason for the player to use the keyboard for the game, so I want to disable it.

    My current solution is to wait for the NAVIGATOR_KEYBOARD_STATE with the NAVIGATOR_KEYBOARD_OPENING State and by calling virtualkeyboard_hide(). But which causes the keyboard to appear a few pixels down before disappearing again.

    Is there a way of elequent more disable the gesture of virtual keyboard?

    Thank you

    Claudine

    I'm afraid, is not possible. If BlackBerry Advisor does not fix me don't waste your time on this. If a user low blows to the left of the keyboard is displayed regardless of your application.

    Hello

    http://gumbo.flashhub.NET/keyboard/

    It is a small example of a 'virtual' keyboard that will enter the text into a textinput/textarea component selected. Capslock and shift key States really aren't quite right (really need control shift/cap lock combo), but there is a simple tab and backspace (delete) and enter the function key.

  • The virtual keyboard will prevent the display of gestures in some of the screens.

    Hello

    If peripheral BB10 function key a cheap shots left that the keyboard is displayed even if the screen has no control of editfield. How can I disable this behavior on some of the screen.

    Same issue was discussed below thread, but there is one year and no solution:

    https://supportforums.BlackBerry.com/T5/native-development/how-do-I-prevent-the-virtual-keyboard-fro...

    A workaround that I have implemented is to listen BPS events:

    Subscribe (virtualkeyboard_get_domain ());

    then, virtualkeyboard_request_events (0);

    and then, to catch keyboard events and hide the keyboard.

    If (bps_event_get_domain (event) is virtualkeyboard_get_domain())
    {
    virtualkeyboard_hide();
    }

    This workaround works, but the problem is virtual keyboard appears to half way through and dismissed immd.

    I want to completely disable the virtual keyboard to appear on the gesture on some of my screens.

    is this possible? using something in the bar - descriptor.xml? or handling certain events in C++, QML?

    Here is the configuration that I use:

    SDK: 10.1

    Feature: Z10 with software version 10.2

    IDE: Momentics version 2.0

    Thanks in advance.

    I think the problem here is that gestures like this are handled by OS not by an application so you can not stop this behavior.

    For some reason, the virtual keyboard on my iPad pro just disappears and can not be found. This happens intermittently and it is very frustrating. Does anyone else have this experience?

    Are you connected any keyboard bluetooth for iPad Pro?   If so, it is probably auto-login when you come into 30 feet about this keyboard.  Go to the BlueTooth when you have this problem and see if there is a device connected keyboard when you have no keyboard.   If so, disconnect it from settings.

    I am currently on the creation of a simulation of various control loops as educational objectives. Here, I have a chart in waveform to different signals.

    Hi, STC,

    There have been a number of suggestions for change or disable the table , right-click menu, but I see that this does not affect the context menu of legend , which is what you ask for help with.

    To prevent completely the menu right-click to work, you must disable the chart control entirely. You can do this by double-clicking on the chart and select Advanced Options > active state > disabled. This will prevent the operator to be able to generate a menu right click on the chart control.

    If however you still wanted the table, make a right click menu to work, but the legend made a right-click menu will be disabled, I see two options:

    1. draw a classic decoration square on the legend and the transparent color. This will prevent the mouse clicks to achieve the legend, and transparent it will not interfere with your user interface appearance.

    2 use a Structure of the event to capture the event filter Popup Menu of Activation?  for the chart control. You can then use the Coords property to determine if the mouse is over the legend or not. If this is the case, send faithful away? right Terminal. It will refuse the context menu when the user clicks on the legend of the plot.
