I working on IOT device, my touchscreen monitor does not have virtual keyboard. and my machine does not allow physical keyboard.
i already try code from 'digital signage', at first it only work single textfield.
with some little tweak on the code, i can use it for all my textbox.
my real problem is that now i'm using webview, and i need to input some data. in the webview i can't use the virtual keyboard from 'digital signage'.
is there anyone who have solution for this virtual keyboard that can be used on webview?
This may take some modification of the OnScreenKeyboard control, but here's the idea:
Capture the on-screen keyboard output
Use WebView.InvokeScriptAsync method to execute JavaScript on the web page loaded in the WebView
The JavaScript will get the focused textbox in the HTML
Set the value of the textbox to the keyboard output

I have a Windows Phone 8.1 app. I have a webview and a TextBox in same grid on a page. TextBox is for copying text to clipboard so the user has to interact with it to copy the text. I am using the visibility.collapsed to Show the webview or to collapse it and Show the TextBox.
The Problem occurs when I use the webview and then collaps it and Show the TextBox, I can't interact with the TextBox any more. I can tap on it and it Looks like focused but I can't interact with it. I can't copy the text or mark it for copy. I must also say that a messagebox appears when switching from webview to TextBox (I did this). maybe this is impoortant for you.
How can I bring the TextBox's functionality back? And the funny Thing is that sometimes (rarely) it works. But when it is not working any more than it doesn't work until you Close the app completely and open it again.
I am programming a Delphi (XE3) application where mouse position is important, but I would like to be able with another mouse to be able to set breakpoints without moving the primary mouse position. I may be pressing shift or control in the application I am trying to debug, so alt-tabbing to the IDE and setting a breakpoint with the keyboard keyboard won't work. Can Windows 7 easily be set up to do this?
It's possible to attach multiple keyboards and mice to a computer, and various video games can take advantage of the multiple input devices, but the OS in general does not take advantage of that. No matter how many keyboards and mice you attach, there's still just one input queue and one cursor on the screen.
If all you need is to set breakpoints without moving the mouse, then you can navigate the input caret to the desired line with the keyboard and then press F5 to toggle breakpoints.
If you need to be able to debug without interfering with the program at all, then you might need to use remote debugging. Although the documentation suggests using Remote Desktop to operate the remote program while you're sitting at the local system, that's not what you want to do in this situation because you'll still have just one set of input devices. Instead, log on to the remote computer from elsewhere (either directly, or via Remote Desktop on a third computer). It'll help to have two computers you can access from the same chair.
Background/Context:
I am developing touch screen based kiosk application with JavaFX. The app integrates browser – WebView. The problem is that all user inputs have to be made through on screen keyboard (SW keyboard)
It would be nice to have an option to register an event-handler on WebView/WebEngine for any HTML text input element got/lost focus, so that I could show/hide on-screen-keyboard.
Even though I searched the Internet, I did not find this kind of feature.
My questions:
Does JavaFX / WebView provides any support for these cases?
If you were to tackle this problem, what would be your approach to that?
My solution so far:
I have a small button (at one corner of the screen) that allows user to show/hide on-screen-keyboard. Since they have to do that manually, it is quite annoying. Especially on sites where browsing (consuming information) and text inputs changes frequently.
It would be nice to have an option to register an event-handler on WebView/WebEngine for any HTML text input element got/lost focus, so that I could show/hide on-screen-keyboard.
A potential strategy for doing this:
Start with a jdk8 preview.
Run the application with -Dcom.sun.javafx.isEmbedded=true to enable the virtual keyboard.
Use a webengine.executeScript technique to embed jQuery into the target page.
Bind a jQuery focus handler to the relevant html elements.
In the jQuery focus handler make an Upcall from JavaScript to Java.
Upon receiving the upcall make use of JavaFX's Virtual Keyboard.
As the user enters values into the keyboard, make executeScript calls to set the value of the corresponding html field.
Some parts will likely be a bit (or totally) flaky, but perhaps other parts may prove useful to you.
In the future, if WebView is supported on touchscreen platforms on embedded devices, I'm guessing that out of the box it will work well with a virtual keyboard.
I'm currently trying to create a suggestion UI in a web page targeted at Mobile Safari. The main components are a text box and a scrolling list that is displayed below the textbox that contains the list of suggestions.
To do this I need to 1) determine that the keyboard has shown and 2) determine the size of this in order to resize the suggestion list to fit in the available space.
I've been able to accomplish (1) by waiting for the focus event, but (2) is still problematic. I have not been able to find any way to measure the size of the keyboard as it doesn't seem to impact the window dimensions or anything else that I could think of trying to measure.
Is there anyway to programically determine the size of the iOS keyboard when it is displayed in mobile safari?
Unfortunately, there is no way to calculate the height of the keyboard. None of the window properties change when the keyboard comes up.
To determine that the keyboard is showing, you can use this solution:
iPad Web App: Detect Virtual Keyboard Using JavaScript in Safari?
Then you'll need to add a device specific class and use media queries in your CSS along with these classes to style appropriately for device and orientation.
If someone has a better hack, I'd really love to hear about it.
I'm having some difficulty showing the virtual keyboard I want for the Blackberry Storm. I have an option to toggle the keyboard's visibility on a certain screen. Whenever the user types a number, it's handled by the screen, rather than any particular field (there are no textfields on this screen). This much works fine. I can show and hide the keyboard when the user chooses to.
My question is this: How do I make the keyboard that shows up the same as what would appear had the focus been on a BasicEditField with a numeric filter applied, without using a BasicEditField for the input?
I don't think BlackBerry has exposed any APIs to allow for programmatic control over the type of virtual keyboard that is shown. I seem to remember reading about it in the BB forums (although unfortunately I can't find it now).
One thing you could try doing is using a BasicEditField with a numeric field, but place it offscreen so that it isn't visible. When you want to capture numeric input from the user, put focus on that element. I haven't tried this, it's just a thought.
