I have a simple Java phone with touchscreen capabilities.In the 'Write Message' section a simple/normal keyboard(Non-Qwerty) is there to compose messages.Now my questions is, whether this default [simple/normal keyboard(Non-Qwerty)] is called Native Keyboard or it's something different altogether?
When a phone does not have a physical keyboard we call the virtual keyboard (shown on screen) as native keyboard.
If you use LCDUI Forms or TextBox this keyboard is presented automatically by the Java Virtual Machine.

I run Qt Virtual Keyboard example in ubuntu(16.04), it runs just on full screen mode and i can not see text edit when typing with virtual keyboard.
I want virtual keyboard width fit to window size and show under the text edit.
How ?
I use this component for virtual keyboard, it works correctly.
The virtual keyboard in the simulator is not showing when I focus on a text field.
It showed the first time I clicked inside the text field but subsequent clicks in the text field do not bring up the virtual keyboard.
This is happening for the IPhone 6 to iPhone X simulators.
I'm using Visual Studio Mac.
It would appear the simulator detected my Macs keyboard, so it no longer shows the virtual keyboard.
How can I fix this so that the virtual keyboard shows whenever I interact with a control that accepts text input.
Solution
In the top menu bar of the simulator I had to turn "Connect Hardware Keyboard" off.
I got there by going to Hardware -> Keyboard -> Connect Hardware Keyboard
I built a cross platform application to run it on Android. I use a TEdit to get the numbers and a Label to show the result of the calculation.
(This function is already running).
Is there any way to show a calculator keyboard whenever I click into to an TEdit object?
It shouldnt just pop-up like a second form I built in.
Set the TEdit.KeyboardType property to either TVirtualKeyboardType.NumbersAndPunctuation or TVirtualKeyboardType.NumberPad as needed. When the user gives focus to the TEdit, it will display the OS's standard virtual keyboard in the appropriate layout.
When I open the Chrome debug view and set the device to "iPad Mini" to simulate its screen size (and touch events), interacting with a text input causes the Windows on-screen keyboard to open.
This computer is not a tablet, and has never had a touch screen. In the Windows Ease of Access -> Keyboard settings Turns on the On-Screen Keyboard is off.
I can only assume that Chrome "simulating" an iPad Mini is causing Windows to think there's a touchscreen. I've been using this feature for a few months now, and the keyboard opening only started happening recently. I may have simply flipped a switch in the settings (of Chrome or Windows) on accident. If that's the case, I'd like to know how to flip it back!
This is frustrating because I have to close the keyboard each time as it covers up a large portion of the web-app.
The same page without the "iPad Mini" simulation does not open the keyboard:
(This keyboard also opens when choosing any device that has a touch screen, not just iPad Mini.)
Chrome doesn't emulate the keyboards of the device profiles you pick. An image of a keyboard will show for certain ones, like the iPhone 5X, but it is non-functional and is just present to allow you to see how the various elements on the page respond to the keyboard. You can see my answer here for more details on viewing that. However, this is not the same keyboard you are seeing.
It looks as though there is something in Windows, which is triggering the on-screen keyboard. I'm not sure why it would still appear if you have it disabled, but you could try a couple of things, based on what I've found online:
Make sure 'Touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service' is set to disabled in Services (services.msc)
SetLOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Authentication\LogonUI\ ShowTabletKeyboard from value 1 to 0 (regedit.exe)
Check there is no other 3rd party software running, which may affect your keyboard behaviour.
I have some code that moves a UITextView out from under the on-screen keyboard. The problem is, sometimes people will surely use a Bluetooth keyboard instead.
How can I detect that that is what's being used for input?
Also, BTW: I can detect when the on-screen keyboard goes away, but how to approach the same intention when it's a wireless keyboard?
Thanks.
You can detect when a bluetooth keyboard is connected by registering for UIKeyboardWillShowNotification the same way that you did for detecting when the keyboard hides. If a BT keyboard is connected, you will not receive a keyboard will show notification when the text field or text view that is requesting the keyboard becomes the first responder.
